Simon Sinek
A TED Eval
By: Raymond
rinehart
Simon Sinek believes that great leaders are great because of why
they are leading, not what they are leading and that what they are
leading is just proof of their beliefs
Simon prefaced his
speech with a
question How do
others achieve
things that defy all
of the
assumptions?
I really believe that
curiosity was what
drove most of the
audience to
continue listening.
Everyone wants to
find the secret to
why other are
successful and most
are not.

In order for people to truly
follow you need to lead with
what you believe and people will
be naturally drawn to follow you.
Through your passion you can
motivate people to break the
barriers that nobody thought
could be broke.
If I had to rate Simon on a
scale in terms of dynamism. I
would have to give him a 3.
He had would it took to keep
me interested but he didnt
touch me deep in my soul.
One of the tips he used
from Garr Reynolds is
that he used relevant
images for his point
I would say one thing I learned from Simons presentation was to be direct about your
point and give examples.
Its really hard to compare Sir Ken
Robinson and Simons Speech but
one similarity they both had to do
with understanding how the
human mind works
One of the main
differences
between the two
was there ability
to motive people.
One through
passion and
leading and the
other through
environment.
Above all I would
encourage my peers
to pick something
they are truly
passionate about.
That way the what
ever they speak
about will flow
naturally
Everyone really needs to lead with
what they believe in order to get
people to believe in what they are
saying, without that words are
empty and are easily dismissed
Sand speak as if you need to
reach these people like you are
trying to touch their soul. Believe
in your message and the
audience will sympathize with
your point.
In closing, the why in what you are trying to do is the determining factor in how successful
you are at reaching people. You dont need the optimal situation to succeed you just need
meaning and purpose.
