Simon Sinek does an excellent job of boiling down leadership to the most important foundations in his book Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action. Rather than simply giving a catchy list of one-off strategies, he underscores key principles that are vital for leaders to adhere to. He emphasizes the culture leaders create and the messaging they convey.
“Very few people or companies can clearly articulate WHY they do WHAT they do. By WHY I mean your purpose, cause, or belief — WHY does your company exist? WHY do you get out of bed every morning? And WHY should anyone care?”
The Golden Circle:
- What = The Results (most start here)
- How = The Process
- Why = The Purpose (few start here…but you should)
