"When everything goes right, you have to give away all the credit, but when everything goes wrong, you have to take all the responsibility" - Simon Sinek

This should be common sense. My father ran his business successfully for 47 years based on empathy. He understood leadership. It works.

I love this guy, his clarity of thought is amazing

Simon is one of my favorite public speakers, he is always humble yet profound

This is one of the best speeches I've ever watched.

"Empathy is being concerned about the human being not just their output"

I'm not a businessman. I'm a teacher, but I believe what he said doesn't apply to only business. I want to make an environment where my students feel comfortable and willing to find their potentials. And this is what my principal should watch. When everything goes well, she doesn't appreciate our efforts, but she only criticizes us when something bad happens.

This guys connection to the world, and people; seems light years ahead of any “leader” I have ever known

Good Leadership comes with personal sacrifice. Who who want to lead, must be willing to SERVE.

I have no words for how great this speech is. Everyone needs to watch this, especially CEO’s & managers.

Real motivator....always acts like a leader.

I'm an old retired middle level manager, and we never heard this type of motivational speeches before about how to manage. Every time Simon opens his mouth I am amazed, because he speaks to Perspective and Empathy and the need for Altruistic leaders as a way for businesses to sustain their forward movement and to treat their most important assets, their employees, as if they matter. If you can please pass this one to everyone on your mailing list. Businesses need to hear this more than they need profits in the short term.

One of the best speech I've ever heard. I made my Bachelor degree's thesis based on Emotional Intelligence, and I wish I could watch this video to make everything easier.

I wish every company's leadership understood these concepts.

one of the best speeches relating to work environment Leadership. More of Corporate America should hear this. Because there is such a lack of empathy.

Who are those 290 dislikes? Seriously what is wrong with people 😡? Do you hear eye-opening leadership advice for your company every day? There isn't a single downside about the things he says. If everyone feels more secure and fulfilled in their work environment they are more happy. If they are happier they are doing their job better and are more friendly to the customers. Satisfied and happy customers means more job for the company itself 😊. There are so many aspects in life that depend on how we are treated and how we treat others.

I know why Simon is so popular. He speaks something people want to hear instead of leaders want to hear. What a strategy !

Hilarious! 'You got a C in school, you're up for Adoption!" Lmao That made me snort laugh out loud!☺️ I Love learning with humor.👍

Simon is simply one of the best speakers in our time.

Empathy is being concerned about the human being not the numbers! Absolutely true.

Using someone's livelihood to balance the books …… that says so much in so few words.

Omg nobody really is talking about these anymore.. i want to invite him to my company I’m almost in tears on my way to go to work now So inspiring Thank you!

One example that I use is sports, we don't change 11 players when the team does not perform, we change the coach.

Wow. It is so refreshing to hear the words empathy, long term, no winning and losing, mass layoffs. I thought we have lost them all. Thanks Simon you just stirred every soul. Love you

I know his signature talk is “start with why” but this is my favorite of his talks😫😍

This world is becoming more and more void of empathy and compassion, it is a sad and bitter development. For those who still posses this gift I ask to share your story with me and the rest of the world: Good or bad, pain or joy. I am looking forward to your reaction. Thank you.

I am flabbergasted…. This is so true!! And it hurt me so much, i cant explain it, I wish I could but I would need 100k+ words or more

Kudos. This guy brings clarity to human behaviour

Simon; speaks the truth we think inside our own head but don’t verbalize to others for some reason. Keep pushing forward

Good to revisit this guy's episode which I saw when it came out. We all need a good reminder on this one vital human quality that is hard to retain without reminding yourself from time to time.

Thank you for the guidance on leadership, Mr. McClung.

Wow, just discovered this guy. He's amazing. The best I've read or heard since "The World is Flat"...

Thank you for sharing this post. It's time for more smart and heartbased leadership, worldwide, on all levels and all areas of life💫🕊💝🙏🏼💝🕊💫

Simon sinek is a great thought leader. I love his observation that managers micro manage because they know how to do it better

Agree. People in this world need more empathy, mercy and compassion and forgiveness. And Love one another + Start within your family and spread out to the world.

I could listen to him all day!!

Excellent Simon Sinek, as expressive, as right as always. Excellent!! Leaders, responsible for those in charge. it's a beautiful job, it's about the people.

Best ever talk on leadership... Amazing guy...

This is a brilliant talk. We focus so often on the "ideal" result in business, on an extremely irrational timetable, that we forget that both time and, _more importantly_, emotionally invested *people* lay the foundation for the ideal. A slow quarter or year doesn't spell permanent loss for shareholders. The greatest businesses that exist today *ALL* started before they IPOed. Passion drives success and nothing is less passion-motivating than rigid performance metrics, disconnected or metric-based management, or a cultural fear of failure.

He makes so much sense. He is such a nice man

This speech is amazing. I'm actually reading a book on empathy and also writing an essay on it. This speech will help me with my thesis that will look something like this: Empathy is overlooked in today's society and needs to be understood so today's leaders can help build better future leaders.

This will be good to listen to from time to time.

So true. It’s far less about homogenising staff and more about recognising, utilising then celebrating people’s individual strengths and achievements. Sadly, too many directors focus on humiliating staff in order to make themselves feel important - not conducive to a healthy environment. When things go wrong we’re supposed to focus on areas of improvement rather than berating staff for their mistakes.

*Mind blowing hats off sir, I love you and I love 7.3 billion people of this earth.*

He is altogether a different speaker at different level. It changes my insight towards my daily work whether official or personal. Great speech.

I was recently working for Amazon and this speach was applied to the job it work very well

Inspiring speaker and concepts. You can feel his emotional tones and passion in his speech.

Wow... I have said these things about parenting and management vs leadership to my friends so many times ... It is amazing to hear someone else articulate the same ideas. I'm so glad to know that people are listening to Simon Sinek, because it's just common sense.

This is the most engaged Simon I've seen so far.

one of the best speaker on the planet

Amazing ❤presentation

Wow, now I know why I couldn't get results in the finite game. I was playing an infinite game in a finite environment and I could get myself well understood. Thanks for this insight. It is enormously helpful. I feel you ant to help people and you succeeded today.

Simon thrills me every time. I'm sending this to the CEO of my company. What he's saying is a no-brainer to a deep thinker. But since we are mostly shallow thinkers, this piece of wisdom will constantly be overlooked in our organizations.

Amazingly Articulated straight to the Heart !

And all this knowledge is free in youtube

Everyone needa see this video tbh

Beautifully brilliant. I adore all you do. Thank you.

This speech should be done in front of each big business in North America (Tesla, Microsoft, Disney, BCE, etc).

Thank you for this

Amazing talk!!! I listened to it omw home from work and shared it with my boss.

I have watched this many times and the insights are so thick that you learn and realize new enlightenment from Simon!

I hope your messages go viral. What you are saying is so important ant so uplifting that all of us who enjoy you need to share. Thank you!

Love his message every time.

The CEOs that say that shit “It’s a war out there - I don’t have time to babysit.” became CEOs because they have that warrior mentality and the companies love that. But what they don’t realize is that, as time goes on, companies can’t fire underperforming employees and replace them with better ones - when the entire pool of new employees are just as dysfunctional as the ones they fired. By the time they wake up and realize they have a problem, it’s too late. But they won’t care - that will be a problem for the next CEO.

beautifully conveyed the message!!

2nd time I've watched this and still got goosebumps. I will be sharing this with my business school students. Thank you for showing that there is and needs to be another way.

Once again Simon Sinek nails it! Thanks for sharing.

Love this, thanks for sharing your insight!

Simon, you‘re just great! Love your speeches...

Absolutely love this guy!

Thanks Simon great speech!

Excellent thought provoking

Empathy is an important and valuable trait indeed. When we express empathy towards others, we feel better about ourselves as well as the person receiving it. Sadly, in this world where we have to first and foremost care about ourselves, we can only show empathy at certain moments in our lives. To forget ourselves and to give to other's is very honorable, but serves no meaning unless we can fully take care of ourselves and do what is best for ourselves :)

Just amazing ! Thanks for the great insights.

This guy is truly amazing!

This guy is such an amazing motivator and speaker

I loved this!

This is amazing, take the time to watch this, you can use it in all aspects of your life

This is wonderful!

I love the way this guy articulates. The tonality and use of hands is perfect

I love this

Simon you are so great it’s a pleasure listening to you again and again to grasp what you really want to say...!🥀🥀🥀

What an amazing message 🙏❤️

I would love to see a Simon Sinek and Brene Brown collab!

Inspiring talk. Sinek your words are magical

Wow! What a speech!!!

Found this on tiktok.. And it was really a good snip of the emphaty.. I just had to look for the entire vid. 😊

excellent speech and very heartfelt.

This is a beautiful and vivid introduction to Empathy, for people who lack empathy, and want to learn to be more effective leaders. I think it is important to talk about the 'shadow side' of empathy. It is possible to experience other people's feelings so vividly, that you 'take on' and even get totally lost in them. Unconsciously, I believe this is why our general culture has numbed out empathy - people are afraid of each other. For those of us who are waking up increasingly subtle and powerful empathic awareness, this is a very real and concerns. I believe people are avoiding being more empathic, not just because we haven't been taught how to empathize, but because we haven't practiced how to empathizer AND THEN LET GO and stay centered within YOU. For me, Compassion is the element that breaks through the confusion. Genuine compassion is never patronizing. Yet compassion also creates healthy distance - it helps us remember who's feelings these are originally in a way that takes the fear out of being close to suffering.

Wow. Thank you sir. I watched this few times to understand the message and now I got it. This is amazing.....

Simon you are visionary!

This is amazing!

I've watched this video numerous rimes and I still learn new things

Amazing speech, like it.

Amazing video and content from Simon. Thoughtful points.

That was really awesome inputs.. Great.

Love this and I truly thing leaders struggle to apply this, some understand, but the practical application remains elusive for some, this feels like it provides people with the insight on to what the application could look like, thank you, Simon

Wow!! This speech is amazing.

Most excellent speech Ive ever heard

I’m dealing with same situation at work, it speaks to my heart. 💕Thanks Simon, what a demonstration of leadership.
