How Leaders Inspire People to Act – Simon Sinek
Simon Sinek is a brilliant speaker and this particular talk shows it. This TED Talk cuts leadership to the core. It seems a little long, but it’s totally worth the time spent watching it.
Look back in your life and think about a time that you did well at something. You will undoubtedly see that it was because you believed in what you were doing. Not only that, but your conveyed that energy to the people around you.
What you didn’t do was only tell people the “what” or the “how” you did it. If that is all you did then It would have failed. People need to know what you believe or “why” before they care about “how” or “what” you do.
I believe this TED Talk illustrates that point well!
J.J. Abrams Mystery Box
Lost is one of my all-time television shows. The mystery that surrounds the show in every episode has to come from somewhere right? J.J. Abrams is the creator of Lost and he reveals a little more of that mystery in this TED talk.
If you are not familiar with TED Talks, you should be. One of the best ways to get the knowledge of today’s great thinkers without all of the restraining orders…;)
