More quotes by Simon Sinek
I never imagined I'd be working with government, or military or politicians or big companies. None of this stuff I'm doing was on any business plan anywhere ever.
Simon Sinek
I like stories of the classic hero, of good versus evil, the ones in which the good guys wear white and the bad guys wear black... and I love a good sword fight.
Simon Sinek
Follow those who follow something bigger than themselves - an idea, a belief, a vision, a cause. Run away from those who say we need to follow them.
Simon Sinek
We very often confuse personality with leadership.
Simon Sinek
TiVo and other digital recording devices have confounded advertisers. The ad industry sees the technology as a threat to their product.
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
We are drawn to leaders and organizations that are good at communicating what they believe. Their ability to make us feel like we belong, to make us feel special, safe and not alone is part of what gives them the ability to inspire us.
Simon Sinek
Great leaders are willing to sacrifice the numbers to save the people. Poor leaders sacrifice the people to save the numbers.
Simon Sinek
The mind can be convinced, but the heart must be won.
Simon Sinek
If you're going to undertake any project, like a book, you have to show up to give.
Simon Sinek
All organizations start with WHY, but only the great ones keep their WHY clear year after year. Those who forget WHY they were founded show up to the race every day to outdo someone else instead of to outdo themselves. The pursuit, for those who lose sight of WHY they are running the race, is for the medal or to beat someone else.
Simon Sinek
The cost of leadership is self-interest.
Simon Sinek
When we can communicate from the inside out, we're talking directly to the part of the brain that controls behavior, and then we allow people to rationalize it with the tangible things we say and do. This is where gut decisions come from.
Simon Sinek
You have to have a patience for exercise. You have to have a patience for college. You have to have a patience for relationships. Once the momentum gets going it takes on a life all of its own.
Simon Sinek
I have been inspired by Martin Luther King and how he inspired a movement. I have learned that a cause must be organic if it is to have an impact it must belong to those who join the movement and not those who lead it.
Simon Sinek
All the perks, all the benefits and advantages you may get for the rank or position you hold, they aren’t meant for you. They are meant for the role you fill. And when you leave your role, which eventually you will, they will give the ceramic cup to the person who replaces you. Because you only ever deserved a Styrofoam cup.
Simon Sinek
Our goals should serve as markers, measurements of the progress we make in pursuit of something greater than ourselves.
Simon Sinek
Most people ignore opportunities because they see only danger. Entrepreneurs ignore danger because they see only opportunities.
Simon Sinek
The leader's job is to lead and protect. Not have all the answers, not know everything to do, not to micromanage and tell people what to do or how to do it. A leader's job is to lead and protect. That's their job, and it's the people within the organization - their job is to get the work done.
Simon Sinek
There are leaders and there are those who lead. Leaders hold a position of power or influence. Those who lead inspire us.
