"You'd better keep them on your team" I think this contradicts the entire presentation. I think you meant to say "You'd better promote them out of your team"

Bra... You make so'oo high simple high knowledge simple, so very simple ✊🏾☝🏾💎✔️📖🗝️🧨

How many workplaces where you ACTUALLY have to perform like a sports team / gaming team / special forces team? A TEAM of sales people doesn't have act as a team. Completing paperwork + compiling reports and passing them up and down a chain of command - that ain't teamwork either For most working folks the only scope to add value to the company thru TEAMWORK is to work hard and not skive off ie. Make your deadlines

brilliant and so true!

Unpredictability is the part that makes people scared to share their vulnerabilities. Of course, there needs to be caring, competence, commitment and a little benevolence, or you will have more dysfunction when someone is vulnerable and at risk.

Profound! The trust part is more complex and can be more personal, but building trust has a lot of factors, of which I''ve remembered these five: Competence, Commitment, Caring, Benevolence, and Predictability.

I run a specialised business in a remote community and can never find skilled staff. A few years ago I stopped employing on skill levels and just employed the best PEOPLE I could. Business has boomed ever since and in the worst skills shortage since WW2 I have maintained full staff levels at all times, with incredibly low staff turnover. It works

The best ever.

This is why at our work they measure our bonuses based on metrics it is easy to cheat on. Also our QAs are based on meaningless box checking. So you can have someone who is polite on the phone., shitty at their job as they speed through accounts that the rest of us have to fix later on. And we wonder why we are 1-2 weeks behind in accounts we manage. Because the high performers are not really performing highly. They are merely performing quickly. Leaving the rest of us who take the time to do it right to suffer in the middle of the bonus rankings, doing most of the work correctly. I love my job but I have recently decided it may be time to leave. I refuse to work for an employer that rewards poor work ethic.

Top!

Leave a job because of toxic workplace, however those toxic colleagues get promotion eventually because of their high performance, that is when you know it is not a good company worth staying anymore

Very dangerous idea imo. So in addition to the RIDICULOUS AMOUNT of control put on Americans, now you want to what? Monitor them at lunch to make sure they're well liked as well? Critical thinking folks. Communism sounds good too in a lecture hall. Now if you want to base this on hiring, good luck that you can spot the "trustworthy" candidate. You're not that gifted.

Starbuck vs Apollo. Battlestar Galactica.

I'd like to weigh in, but I'lll ask Mr. Sinek to engage me in this discussion...if he'd like to learn a thing or two :) ...

As a self identified MPHT manager this is so relatable. I find as I continue my mission the greatest threat is fellow managers trying to let you fail ‘I’ll show him’, or workers who will take advantage of your high trusting environment. The cream, however, will readily rise to the top.

Highest performing organisation 😂

Used to work for a boss who was a high performer, trust person. Everyone who worked for her hated her. Entire team left within a couple of years and she’s never been in a leadership position since then.

Ageed

Brilliant! Let’s work together love ❤️

AMAZING video. I feel like all my 4 managers in my department should watch this. They are all of course in the bottom left corner, but hey, maybe they can learn something.😂😂😂

And usually, but not always, those people with low trust are extroverts, because they dont longterm bond with people. Introverts who bond longterm have more trust. Just my own experiment. ❤ I would give my money and everything to a introvert but not an extrovert, who might "forget" whose money is that. Introvert would never accidentally "forget".

Big facts

I love how people throw out “I worked with the teams” as a way to splash some sort of street credit to those gullible enough to believe that. Don’t know how the teams had time to go on missions with all these consultants meeting with them.

I have a boss who is a sharp, smart, and cunning business woman. She’s one of the sharpest woman I’ve ever worked with…but I will absolutely throw her under the bus given the chance. Every chance she gets she’s always bad mouthing someone, always using intimidation and thinly veiled threats to get you to perform, and criticizing your every move despite it not being related to your performance or even critical. She’s a top tier performer but her character is just bottom of the barrel.

Weird thing is, Trump is the least trustworthy and least able, yet still popular 😂

Is this Boeing's new training course?

Who's the asshole? he asked. You watch this video and know if they did this at your compagnie it would be you they would be pointing at. 😁

The AHs are often also sycophants, kissing up to the bosses and “punching down” to use Adam Grant’s term. The best people to identify the AHs, are those at a lower level in the organization.

People laughed, but oh boy….how often would they look themselves in the mirror and question of themselves?

This is great and all but it sort of implies that a person’s performance and trustworthiness is fixed. Culture, i.e. the effect of other people in the organization, plays a significant role, and I would think Simon would be the first to point that out.

👏

I can't believe how much truth he fit into 2 minutes and 27 seconds. This is true everywhere, but it is most true in the most competitive realms - sports, business, and the military. Spot on.

Superb and 100% accurate

They all laughed cause they know it’s true

Meritocracy - not ideology

like a family, dads are assholes and moms are trustworthy. Kids will natural choose moms for support and kindness in long term.

Ted Lasso approves this message

And yet, all our countries are lead by LPLT

I worked for a company called Cellular Sales in Roanoke Virginia, our team was exactly like that! The assholes running the place would make the world a better place if they committed suicide, but they could sell you your own shoes. A guy named Ross Agee, was the most trust worthy person i'd ever met but wasn't the best salesman. Absolute truth here!!!

Abuse able vs Abuse resistant))))

People that lust for power are always the ones causing big problems for everyone else. Those that assert themselves over everyone else are toxic by default. It is true in business and true generally. Look at those that call themselves royal. Look at what they pretend to be while they make covert war against the rest of us.

This theory is correct. I acquired a business several years ago with 45 employees. I fired a dozen of them and hired by personality only. My employee turnover rate was less than 5%. The average store’s turnover was 25%. After 8 months the CEO flew out to meet. He wanted to know how my location was able to retain employees. I told him the other locations hired based on skill set but the people’s personalities were toxic. I hired by personality and if they fit the team then trained them. My teams all got along and it was one of the highest performing locations out of 3000 stores in the USA.

The 'they' is SEAL Team 6. The highest performing organisation in the world. There are NO women in any spec ops team. Because they know what they are doing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There is also NO women in the most high performing teams in the world. Not in SEAL Team 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 600. Facts. I wonder why 😂😂😂😂😂

What businesses has Simon Sinek run? In which has he been ceo, cfo, c anything?

Private equity firms don't care. The long game doesn't exist anymore.

Explains why western civilization will fail. Our obsession with performance instead of ethics.

Sweetheart, I have a question for you. How do you measure someone’s trustworthiness? Put them to the test in crap situations? Do that, and they will make sure you scrub toilets with your toothbrush for the rest of your miserable life all along you wishing they beat the crap out of you once then leave you alone.

1:43 The Picasso of organisational psychology 😃👏
