Design Matters from the Archive: Simon Sinek

Simon Sinek is an unshakable optimist, trained ethnographer, and the author of two books: the global bestseller, Start With Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action, and his newest book, The New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don’t. He is best known for popularizing the concept of Why and for giving the second most watched talk of all time on TED.com. He speaks around the globe and has commented for local and national press, including The New York Times, Inc., NPR, and Bloomberg BusinessWeek

On this episode, Debbie Millman talks to Simon about the fruits of good leadership: “To see your team achieve more than they thought they were capable of, that they will advance the organization further than you even imagined—because they believe, and they are grateful, and they’re inspired—it’s all worth it. All the sacrifices. It always is.”
