- How do we create an environment in which our people can work at their natural best?
Leaders are not responsible for results, they're responsible for the people who are responsible for the results.
This is the second of The 5 Practices outlined in THE INFINITE GAME.

❤it!!!!!
Amazing line

Quite often we find ourselves in environments where leaders are working against each other instead of working together for the greater good of the organization. It boils down to
"Just keeping your head under the radar and collect your paycheck"
Noa example is just mind-blowing. If Noa presents in that other hotel with not so supportive management, as he presents in Four Seasons Hotel, Noa could be even sanctioned for his customer service style. I can feel this on a very personal level. I do not adjust to the environment and leaders, I am myself and act according to my values. You can have a good guess, I did not stay long in not supportive and trusting environments. Now, as a leader, I want to build this environment. Thank you!!
Someone who finally gets it. My motto was always that people don`t work FOR the manager but rather that the manager is working for their people. The job of the employee is to DO their jobs. The manager is there to support them by empowering them to make decisions, ensuring they have the right tools & training and especially that they are well. In every way.
That's what makes a real manager, knowing and supporting the people who work for him.
Last line sums it up, leaders make others “feel valued and valuable.” I think that’s what everyone wants
Need more Simon in my life!
Everything about this should be required reading for all managers. I’ve been getting my managers to watch this, and trying to live it myself. Thank you, Simon.
A truely Master Class on Leadership !!! ... thank you Simon !!!
Thanks Simon! Leadership leadership leadership, so inundated with this word and just hoping that our managers decide to be leaders
I'm an improved person! Because of your videos, my students loves me! It touched me whenever they say they love their mentor 😢 I wish I've bumped into your videos years ago... but I'm so grateful I've watch it whenever you released one! Thanks Simon!❤️ You're a life saver! I'm very grateful!
This is the only way how a company functions long term. Loved the Four Seasons example with Noah! Trust is the THING - thank you for sharing, making sure as a leader to be aware of it. Often, this deep pure trust is felt when we are born into the world and it is the most important emotion we can give our children as a parent. Trust, Safe Space and belonging
I needed to hear this one. Really good for my training to untrain being overly cautious 🙏😎👍
I love you Simon. Why leaders don't understand the language you speak.
Well said, Simon. Thank you. The real life examples are really helpful, insightful and inspiring.
Trust is paramount! You’re an excellent lecturer/motivational speaker Simon. Thanks for such an instrumental and brilliant speech. These are solid tools for any leader.
Thank you for your support and courage to keep going in this period of Pandemic and Work from Home, where we feel sometimes alone, without team, without leader, and I am listening to become a leader every day because we live in this infinite game, LIFE.
A big hug and warmly thank you with all my heart from Bucharest, Romania! Ramona & Giuseppe
I just don't get it why simon subscribers less than a millions, with this kind of knowledge and purpose in his life, he should've get more subscribers, love this man so much
Tremendous insight and inspiration for those of use who study humanity and work environments. Simon says...
one of the best short and concise presentations I have seen in the subject of trusting teams and leadership in general. Thank you!
This video made me see bad work environments from a different perspective and how much power a leader has. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us
Like is "rational"
LOVE is "emotional"
For sure people are not towels and the leaders certainly don't have to wring them out to bring out the most out of them.Just give them their space and don't only accept their flaws but embrace them.
Simon is phenomenal in expressing the most ABSTRACT of things in such a profound way that i can't even describe in words.
Much Love
To me I think it's a pragmatic utopia. I like what Simon Sinek is coming up with here - forming teams that are emotionally engaging in their work and leadership that is profoundly about caring. Coming from a German background, I really see though that cultural aspects play in here too - love and feelings don't belong to a workplace in Germany, nevertheless, productivity is extremely high in my country - also due to excellent teamwork, not because members brought in their personal lives into the job surrounding or leaders caring in the first place, but because of the contrary: they know how to seperate the personal from the job life. It's not "fake". The emotional connection to the workplace can play a role, but distancing from work, from the teams or other out of my cultural background (Hofstede, Socialization, 6D Model), is simply the distancing and shutting the door to the work routine - which is healthy to do. The failures of leadership are in turn very good addressed - its not the teams failing in first place, its leaders not leading well and failing in intervening into employees (life) situations.
Bravo Simon!
A very important issue is TRUST. Which start by trusting oneself. And those "bad " managers do not trust themselves - how can they trust people that they lead?
"It is a leader's responsibility to set the environment ..." Oh, my. Taking care of the people in our business is a high calling. If we just focus on our clients or customers we will surely miss the real joy of it all. Thanks, Simon Sinek!
Air Force active duty here! We watched this in our ALS class. It really opened my mind.
He preaches it well. I love the way he delivers this message. Love him!
Thank you for saying what has been on my mind for a long time!
It is 100% true. All leaders should hear that.
Simon, a great simple summary; build trusting teams, by trusting your teams. Or as the British Army's officer training says: "Serve to Lead".
Thank you , I really appreciate to read your book and watch you.
The story about Noah is always amazing to me.......
Love
So simple but so true
Very powerful message! Trust is everything.
Absolutely inspiring! Infinitely grateful for the shared ideas and insights.
I totally agree with the message here. The one thing that struck me though was the United Airlines example where Simon spoke up for a passenger trying to board early, and in that instance it's equally possible that the gate agent used the reason for doing what they did as an excuse to minimise potential complaints and further issues. I'm not saying it was definitely the case, just a possible reason
This was 100% my experience as an educator and administrator in U.S. public schools.
Thank you. really a good performance. I do appreciate it
This video is just WOW... im a Team manager and i literally absorb all that you say and try to implement everything in my daily activities... love you ❤
What do u do when u feel a employee is taking u for a ride?
@@joeyanderson6660 there are always exceptions as he said, keep doing good but that doesn't mean not correcting certain behaviors when necessary
Such a fantastic message!
Wow. I'm not a leader and I get this. ALL leaders should listen to this.
You’re a leader bro
Everyone is a leader
@Jessica Marie Baumgartner true ..very true
@Jessica Marie Baumgartner wow such insight,
thx🙏
And then they should quit their positions. Lead ship is a lie, it’s just an illusion to allow people to think their better than others.
Often times we take teams for granted. We need to realise that essential success of a company depends on teams and not leaders. The day u find a leader thinking its all about him, that team is doomed.
That's Amazing Simon, as usual !!
You are second to none.
If you get the leadership right, you get people like Noah.
If you get the leadership wrong, you get people like Noah.
💁♂️🎩
This should reach more and more organisations!!!!
The Four Seasons needs to give Noa a full-time contract and a pay raise for all the goodwill he creates👍
Am sure Noa will feel disappointed to get his love returned as simple cash.
Send this to the whole instacart staff, please, there a great company but no respect for the employees that actually love putting in the foot work out in the field
Every boss needs to watch this
Trust also means assuming the best in people.
When we find ourselves in leadership positions, we too often think that people need to be reminded to be on their best behavior e.g remember to give your 100%! Always ask for help when you need it!
Assuming that you hired the right people, you shouldn't need to remind people to ask for help when needed or give something their full effort. To do so implies that you may have at one point doubted those you're leading - that you at one point may not have trusted them to ask for help when faced with a difficult task or give something their full effort.
In short, if you have to tell those you lead to work hard, you've either hired the wrong people and therefore have had to create an environment in which such reminders are necessary or you simply don't trust the people who work with you.
Both situations will require some self-reflection to remedy.
This is all precise 👌🏻 I seriously hope to attend to one of your presentations
This is AWESOME!!! This helps me realize that I am not trusting my team.. Perhaps I should..
People often deliver what is expected of them.
I find that senior leaders struggle with this. They forget how they got to that level or got their position because of tenure and never had these skills. They don't seem natural or genuine when they try to connect with the larger team. Everyone wants quick results but that is only good in the short term. Slow and steady will win the race.
Simon,
I love your videos, I believe that you can feel it deep inside when someone is speaking truth. I am a father of three and a choir teacher and I believe that your lectures on leadership have helped both professionally and personally. Two questions, First is there any way that you could do one of your lectures specifically geared towared teachers. Teaching is after all mostly leadership. Second, I think I have heard you speak to this before but what can you do to help others, leaders and colleagues become interested in leadership training.
Thanks.
Very true Simon, I trust the same.
Wow this message is so profound I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts and they are very true. How do we change our actions to make our team members feel this way. This is the kind of leader I want to be.
Love your voice and words
Thanks for this video. Dariusz Łukasik, the author of a few blogs.
Great. We need companies like that. There people works their natural best! Yeah
The more i read HBR, watch Simon, and the likes, the more i realize what a messed up place i work in.
"Leadership is a lifestyle"
"Teams where people love to be in"
"Workplace where people feel safe"
"Team where people trust each other"
People these days really need a reality check about their choices and all ... Simon Sinek's video and so less views ???? He is one of the best orator i have ever listened to ..
Love you , Sinek
Trust and respect are basic in any relationship .
Great job ☺👏👏👏
I totally suport what you do .
Jesus said i give you a new commandment. Love one another as you love yourself. Well i guess we still don't realise how underated that statement is. Those who realise it will see the benefits and wisdom in that command
It's impossible to love all mankind with "PERSONAL" love. Christ was speaking of Impersonal love for one another. PERSONAL love for God the Father motivates Impersonal love for ALL MANKIND even the unlovable. Impersonal love emphasis the subject (me) the one doing the loving. Regardless who they are or what they've done based on my own honor and integrity I treat all with tolerance forgiveness courtesy sensitivity thoughtfulness kindness etc... that is what Christ meant by love one another and through practicing this Unbelievers can see Christ bring formed in you.
Awsome and Awesome !!!!
so encouraging!
great video! thanks for posting.
My god, I decided to google your name because of Start with why! today LOL thank you!
awesome! important video thanks
Great video, and Great tips.
Great Video as always. I am expecting more diversified examples. Like working out in gym, brushing our teeth. ☺️☺️
I wanna be a leader like he describes...I will work hard. Treat ppl how u wanna be treated. :))))))))))
Simon says:
- the leadership environment will hugely impact the performance of their team
- no trust = the team shows up and fake, lie and hide mistakes for fear of punishment
- in a trusting team people admit mistakes and their need for help without any fear of retribution
- leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge.
- poor service is often due to team members being scared of breaking the rules.
The team decides on salary and bonuses through periodic team review. The ‘leader’ does not necessarily makes the highest income.
Various roles within a team suit different personality types regardless of age and ‘experience’. Guru types regardless of skill domain are worth multiples of the team ‘average’ income.
The team reviews, decided and knows on what each other is earning. This really is the crack cocaine of empowered teams and high performance.

I'd really like a list of companies that care for their employees like this so i can support them!
Amazing thoughts
THE JOB OF LEADERSHIP IS TO CREATE TRUSTING TEAMS

Awesome.
Stuff he spoke is old, but his storytelling is brilliant.
During an intense meeting with my manager and the other assistant manager, in which I was trying to advocate for and defend my team's performance and explain the role that trust of management plays in a team's performance, the other assistant manager flipped it on me (as if I hadn't been the one to bring up the lack of trust that permeates the entire establishment) they said my team was under performing because they don't trust me and that the way they gained the teams trust was by being the best at everything. I am still trying to see how that is a trust building practice. While I do see the value in a team seeing the tasks performed in their most efficient and expedient capacities and the importance that a team trusts the leader's competence at tasks they are training other's for, in this context, the other AM's performance is weaponized against people. They are constantly comparing the time it takes them to the time it takes the team members suggesting that they are falling short, all but one of which have been there for less than a year.
waouh, tres intéressant. le leadership est un style de vie et non une méthode
👑
People dictate the leadership
Simon: Exist
Me: Yes
waaa je viens de France quel contenue incroyable
ta raison
vous aussi vous venez de France ?
oui ou ca ?
du nord pas de calais
la meme je viens de bouzolle
He must have been really struck by this experience- I believe I've heard him share a little about it before.
And this is 100% why I will pay more to fly with Southwest over United - Southwest must be doing something right because I’ve never seen an angry Southwest employee.
Anyone read Creativity, Inc??
Pixar built the greatest animation company in the world around this principle!
@Jessica Marie Baumgartner 😂 I'm pretty sure they will own my soul when Disney+ comes out lol
Say it loud for the Managers in the back!
I've became a manager recently I have been thinking about how I can be a good leader? Shoud I control every task I've entrust them? what If they make mistake?
Nice
👍
Hellooooo Mr. Sinek!
For ANY OF THIS TO WORK you must get management to think of PEOPLE as MORE IMPORTANT than MONEY!! [IMHO that a non-starter...won't happen]
I'm still waiting for God to lightning bolt me for my childhood days of innocent and being stupid alone.
I think I missed the 5 practices. Did anyone catch the 5 practices?
I work for a company who is a ‘Caesar’s Palace’ and it is not fun!
How to know I don't work in a safe environment; don't dare email the link to this video to my manager & team lead 🤭
Lying, hiding and faking, a recipe for disaster!
My school sent me here lol
