More quotes by Simon Sinek
Words may inspire but only action creates change.
Simon Sinek
The value of networking is not measured by the number of people we meet but by the number of people we introduce to others.
Simon Sinek
A boss who micromanages is like a coach who wants to get in the game. Leaders guide and support and then sit back to cheer from the sidelines.
Simon Sinek
Some in management positions operate as if they are in a tree of monkeys. They make sure that everyone at the top of the tree looking down sees only smiles. But all too often, those at the bottom looking up see only asses.
Simon Sinek
I was a nobody when I met with the publisher. Nobody knew who I was. I was doing some speaking for entrepreneurs. I did little groups. I had no following.
Simon Sinek
And when a leader embraces their responsibility to care for people instead of caring for numbers, then people will follow, solve problems and see to it that that leader’s vision comes to life the right way, a stable way and not the expedient way.
Simon Sinek
We should all have an opportunity to feel a part of something not just have a part in something.
Simon Sinek
The true value of a leader is not measured by the work they do. A leader's true value is measured by the work they inspire others to do.
Simon Sinek
I'm investing in myself, I'm investing in others and I'm investing in my cause. I know if I persist it will pay back in dividends and it always does.
Simon Sinek
We should never change our minds about where we are going, but always be curious about different ways to get there.
Simon Sinek
The cost of leadership is self-interest.
Simon Sinek
I cannot tell you how long it takes for your exercise to work. If you haven't seen any results in a year or six months you're doing something wrong.
Simon Sinek
I was always curious why certain marketing worked and some marketing did not.
Simon Sinek
The difference between those who do and those who don't is that those who don't believe it when they are told they can't.
Simon Sinek
Leadership is a choice. It's not a rank, it's a choice. I know many people who are at the top of their organization who have authority. We have to do what they say because they have authority over us. But they're not leaders. We wouldn't follow them. They may be at the top of the company but they're not leaders.
Simon Sinek
Our courage comes from the courage of others.
Simon Sinek
Entrepreneurs see the thing they want or need, then try to figure out a process of how to get it. People who shouldn't be entrepreneurs see the standard process they need to go through to get the thing they want or need then decide if they want to go through that process.
Simon Sinek
The trick to balance is to not make sacrificing important things become the norm.
Simon Sinek
Because a true sense of purpose is deeply emotional, it serves as a compass to guide us to act in a way completely consistent with our values and beliefs. Purpose does not need to involve calculations or numbers. Purpose is about the quality of life. Purpose is human, not economic.
Simon Sinek
Multi-millionaires who pay half or less than half of the percentage of tax the rest of us pay justify their actions by saying they pay what the law requires. Though true, the fact is they found ways within the law to beat the purpose of the law - which, in the case of taxes, is that we all pay our fair share.
