Put others first : Simon Sinek laid out this principle in Leaders Eat Last. Let your team know if you made a mistake, and then follow it up with what’s going to change and how you’re going to work towards making it right. When we show that we’re vulnerable, we show that we’re just like those we’re leading.

Starring Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, and more, the movie looked promising. This reminds me quite a bit of Simon Sinek’s book Leaders Eat Last. Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, and Jeremy Renner were great as well. Mission Impossible 4: Rogue Nation released this past weekend. And, once again, they did.

Simon Sinek is a big proponent of starting with WHY. You’ll have a firm foundation for leading. You’ll have answers for leading. You’ll have a reason for leading. Question #1 : The first question you MUST ask yourself is WHY do I want to lead? When you’ve settled on a WHY, your WHY will guide and direct you.

Simon Sinek wrote an amazing book about leaders eating last. And you’ve asked your team to take a hit. Whether that’s a pay cut, forgoing a raise, or reduced hours, your team members are going to struggle. As a leader, you need to take part in the struggle as well. Great leaders take the first blow.

Simon Sinek in his book Start with Why: How Great leaders Inspire Everyone To Take Action explains how essential knowing our why is. It’s disheartening how many people are anxious about talking to a trusted friend about how they are feeling and what they are facing. Reconnect with your why.

Simon Sinek pointed out in his book Leaders Eat Last (you can get a free audio version of the book here ) that great leaders aren’t selfish. Our motives could be selfish or they could be altruistic. It’s up to us to determine our leadership motives. If we notice that our motives for leading are selfish, we need to course correct.

Simon Sinek talks a lot about the role of a leader in his poignant leadership book Leaders Eat Last. You’re giving them a helping hand, guiding them in a direction that will help them. When is the last time you helped someone get from point A to point B? This should be one of your goals as a leader. What am I willing to give up?

Do you remember the book Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek? She eventually did by telling Robin she would do a movie about him… Not the Teen Titans. Robin chose to leave the Teen Titans to do the movie. Robin was looking out for himself. He shares a great truth about leadership. Great leadership isn’t about the leader.

This scene reminded me of Simon Sinek’s book Leaders Eat Last. Master Splinter, realizing how powerful Shredder was, decides to fight Shredder himself. He locks out the turtles and takes on Shredder. Master Splinter knew he had to do whatever it took to protect his team. Don’t think your leadership entitles you to perks.

This rings true with the leadership lessons taught in Simon Sinek’s book Leaders Eat Last. Haymitch told those opposed to helping Peeta that it didn’t matter what they wanted. It wasn’t about them. It was about helping someone else. As leaders, you will have to put aside your personal desires. It’s no longer about YOU.

This line reminds me of the Simon Sinek book Leaders Eat Last. You don’t have to continue making mistake after mistake or misdeed after misdeed. You can choose to be better. Charles Xavier/Professor X : Didn’t really matter what was best for me. What was important was that the team was taken care of.

Simon Sinek shares in Leaders Eat Last how great leaders sacrifice for the great good of their team. He could return to the physical world. He chose not to. Instead, he allowed Billy to return to life. He sacrificed for the good of others. Are you willing to set aside your needs? Be a great leader. Sacrifice for those you lead.

Simon Masrani – The key to a happy life is to accept you are never in control. Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. We can learn much from the past. By studying what came before, we can get a good idea of what lies ahead. Are you listening? There’s a lot of stress that comes with the title of leader.
