Simon Sinek: “The Finite and Infinite Games of Leadership (Talks at Google)

This is a must-watch video if you are running or working in a company. A few gems from the video (written as I understood the talk):

1. The goal is not to beat your competition, but the goal is to outlast your competition.

3. Infinite players thing long term and focus on their vision, values etc. They make their decisions by first seeing if the decision fits within their long term vision.
4. Infinite players don’t worry about short-term losses or ups and downs.
5. Compete with yourself. Build your company for the long terms. Maybe, have a 50 or 100 year vision. At first, your vision will make you feel uncomfortable and might be unachievable.
