I want to learn how to speak like Simon Sinek. Confident, knowledgeable and STRONG. Mostly, the confidence that he has.he is very powerful and captivating when he speaks. Love it.

Anyone in 2021 watching this? See where things have gone - imagine where they will be if there is not deep change. People are becoming more and more dispensable. Humanity is becoming less free, more enslaved and more isolated.

It is OK to observe and state the problem, this is a step in the right direction. However, in order to reduce, minimize or eliminate the problem we must state how and when and where we are applying the lessons taught by Simon and other leadership instructors. When we talk about how we are eliminating the problems effectively, we give hope to others and insight as to what and does not work; that way we can learn from each other!

As a CEO for four decades, and a teacher of leadership, I appreciate his work. I've been following Simon for a while now and the more I watch him the more I like him. Even though this talk is decades old it's still relevant, and the point of physical human interactions like the human handshake maybe more so since COVID. Great job Simon!

I wonder how much research he would have done to come up with this great talk and actually have a huge impact on so many viewers, judging by the number of likes. Hats off to Simon Sinek. One of the best truely powerful Ted talks.

I think my favorite part about this guy is that he's trying to build the perfect world.

2stroke4me agree! My own mother stares at her phone when I try having meaningful conversation and when I tell her that I don’t want to talk to the side of her head and it’s hurtful, she shrugs her shoulders and continues on or makes me feel as if I have now burdened her by the fact that she has set it down for me. Ugh. And she isn’t the only person I’ve said the exact thing to and gotten the exact same reaction. I refuse to spend time with someone who refuses to take the phone from their hands.

When stress goes up passion goes down,I love the speech

This is one of the best video about leadership I have ever watched on internet ever. Period. This man, Simon Sinek has rare intellect and profound insight about human connection. Bow Down To his Work.

What a gifted speaker! Great message, too!

Imagine the implications for ouryoung people who have never known life without the internet and mobile devices. It is my current research agenda. This speaks to it very nicely. Anxiety is epidemic in our kids. We have called it an "identity crisis". How can we know who we really are, when we only interact through an inhuman online persona? Nice job.

SImon Sinek, inspiring as usual. His book Start with why really changed the way how I view the world.

He's always on fire and fire up others!!! So passionate...

This guy can go on and on without the crowd blink for a second...so absorbing.

"NOTHING WILL EVER REPLACE HUMAN CONTACT!"

one of the best speakers around. actually connecting with his audience and articulation was perfect with tonage and volume. better than some other speakers who are supposingly speech coaches.

Simon your passion for 'why' and for 'trust' is infectious. Those who believe that trust can be built on the internet are disillusioned. If humans as babies dont get physical contact in their first 6 months, they generally battle all their lives to trust anyone. Preach it, Simon!

I love numbers and facts, but this talk reminded me that something that everyone loves is Stories.

Leading with WHY first. Seems so easy but yet most are not doing it including myself. It's time for me to test the theory myself. Thank you Simon for your sharing your passion and desire of your life purpose.

Something about how Simon Sinek speaks always inspires me every single time. Thank you for reminding me that humility is decreasing and we should preserve trust, empathy, humility, and true leaders. Thank you very much.

It makes me happy to click the "like" BEFORE I watch a Simon Sinek video (to make sure I don't forget at the end).

I've worked with friends on class projects all the time for the years I was in school and I never shook any of their hands but knew they would come through for me. I feel that a sense of duty and sometimes, even honor provide people with trust with one another. I also believe in what the free market represents - that there are many different people who one can make deals with and that if one cannot trust or do business with someone, they may go to other people who are more trustworthy.

"We don't know the impact of the decisions we're making."

I could listen/watch Simon Sinek talk for days

Thank you Simon Sinek. You just put into words what I feel at my organization. I will continue to be "Human" no matter what!!!

Simon speaks the truth. Great inspiring message even 11 years later. Along with Sherry Turkle's TedTalk Connected but alone? Just have a nice conversation. Thank you Simon, please keep presenting.

Yes, he is gifted in his ability to articulate his ideas! His self belief is contagious.

Simon Sinek is absolutely amazing! I connect to everything he says and that's very rare for me. Inspirational and motivating.

Someone wrote down everything he said and I read it then watched the video .. wow The connection is completely different you feel what he is saying it’s fantastic

I love Simon Sinek. I think he is a great man, and I love his ideas and his talks. I wish to see him live. Thank you Simon for everything you do. It has changed the way I talk to clients, potential clients, etc. Thank you So much.

Much appreciated. I believe 💯% what you believe.

Thank you for this!!

so very true. The direction to which humanity is marching is indeed daunting.

I really love this guy he speaks wisdom, inspiration. I think the same is in life, when you have a strong why, you just move through life with greater sense of purpose you are able to face obstacles easier. How to find your why? It usually is true that the why comes from pain rather than pleasure. My why is to help people with anxiety because i struggled with it for years and I still do, so I feel the pain. You will do more to avoid pain than gain pleasure. The second hint is you feel emotional about the topic when you speak about it, you litteraly feel the pain or pleasure, it is emotional.

Watching this gave me oxygen to breathe so to say.what a refreshing insight.Thanks for sharing.

Such a legend.

Love the way he speaks!

saw this in my college class it was amazing

I agree with him on differences between reliable and trust. 'Reliable' is just we are going to do what we said. Trust must involve kind of influence on that. I believe the more influence you have on a person, the more sense of trust that person has on you. That's leadership.

Absolute love for his thoughts. I have worked in every single form of company, from proprietor, partner, private to public. I have seen it all. Therefore, I can relate to each and every single word this gentleman speaks of. I strongly believe that the future for the skilled ones will not be dependent upon the company but on self. People will leave institutions if this trend continues.

I love his idea, I use them to innovate myself in my entrepreneurial class

some notes thought experiment: when choosing babysitter for our children (our most valuable possession), we pick the 16-yo next door neighbor whom we know, but who has no experience, over the 32-yo from outside, who has 10 years experience but whom we don’t know - all about trust yet, we do precisely the opposite in business - all about the resume when companies start, the “why” is very clear and aligns with the “what”; over time that begins to diverge, it’s the single biggest challenge for any growing or large company (examples: Apple, Starbucks, Dell)

Very glad I found this guy. Inspirational. Thanks

As always, amazing speech!

Love this talk. Thanks heaps for this contribution. I understand a lot better now.

simon sinek has changed my life

I agree with Simon Sinek that our distrust of each other-in our country/in our jobs/organizations/in our teams has lead to the work stress and dissatisfaction we find these days. Build trust and settle for nothing else-I believe that we can build a country/jobs/organizations/and teams that have more trust with each other and less stress-leading to more production and greater results!!

Fascinating to think of this from an autistic spectrum direction. Someone on the spectrum is both less capable of experience of human connection in real life, but also simultaneously more trusting of others ( and as a result, easier to be taken advantage of ). They are working in the world where not having a handshake is just fine, and even perferred. I also see parallels between cultural differences in how things are handled in business.

@sandwichgroper

8 ай бұрын

I am so glad you wrote this comment. I also am on the spectrum and so is my son. I spent most of my life being very lonely, because although I was desperate for human interaction it always went so badly because I’m so awkward and find the shaking hands part (that is, most of the aspects of in person interaction) never went well. And yes, I did try. In my 30s I basically became a hermit; I had a young baby and there was no way I could manage the brutal stress of human sociability in person as well as being the young parent of a then- undiagnosed autistic child I hate most social media, because it seems so superficial but I discovered a platform that I still belong to, and a small group of people that stuck around there, for long enough that they became my closest friends and have been for years now. I don’t trust easily and I was a frustrated and lonely person at first even online. But those people who stuck around there (strangely enough, many of whom also have difficulty with in person interaction)- we socialised each other, had deep conversations, arguments and even talked a bit with our voices sometimes, and became very very close and firm friends. We still are. If you’re not used to that, it also makes those people even more important and closer, I think. Also like you, I thought that Sinek would have at least gone into different types of cultural signals in person, and different types of people. We all need to build trust, but not all of us do it in the same way. (Incidentally, the way he used the Milgram experiments as part of his argument was really disappointing too; the results have been painstakingly checked as far as it is possible (interview of people who participated, re-examining methodology, etc; it cannot ethically be replicated, as Sinek says) and the deeper study of that experiment was very surprising to me when I read about it. I would bet that Sinek hasn’t studied the results or analysed them himself in any detail because what he reported was the narrative Milgram promoted andthe dominant narrative about the Milgram experiments for so long that it’s still what many people believe was ‘proven’. In reality, Milgram had a lot of trouble getting people to think they were willing to torture someone to death just because they were following orders. And even those who did (statistically a higher percentage amongst those who could not see or hear the ‘victim’, which is something Sinek did get right) were NOT un- damaged. It psychologically crippled some of them and damaged many others, as was later found. The only way Milgram could get most of them to do it at all, even in the conditions described by Sinek, was to tell them that if they didn’t continue the experiment, they’d be ruining an important piece of scientific research, and to repeat that. None of that is conclusive of course, for any interpretation, but arguably the people who did keep going with the shocks, were also influenced by the idea that this was Important Science and that was something they believed in. I don’t think Sinek is totally wrong in any of his speech (except for being really sloppy and a bit simplistic); there’s merit to what he says in many ways. But if I were being self-centred in my interpretation I might think he was implying that awkward and autistic people can’t be part of real trust in society. And that’s not just untrue it’s also sometimes a characteristic of people on the spectrum that they can be much more literal and (arguably) loyal in the human ways he means when he talks about handshakes. Came to this talk with quite high hopes expecting something good; really quite disappointed that it was so simplistic and shoddy that he ruined his own argument

Fantastic speech on trust and how the world has changed over the generations, however i think in a post Covid world it will be possible to build trust virtually although in-person interaction is still king!

Interesting how his accents switches from US to British and back, very powerful message.
