What an astounding, thought provoking, talk. "The cost of leadership is self-interest. If you're not willing to give up your perks when it matters, then you probably shouldn't get promoted. You might be an authority but you will not be a leader. Leadership comes at a cost. You don't get to do less work when you get more senior, you have to do more work and the more work you have to do is to put yourself at risk to look after others. That is the anthropological definition of what a leader is." Absolutely spot on. This entire quote speaks volumes of information and i could not be more grateful to have seen this. Thank you for this perspective, it is a wonderful place to view.

This entire talk brought back memories of how my previous company reduced me to tears. Believed for a long time that I was just not cut out for the job and was horrible at it despite all the happy customers I produced. Thank you Simon for changing my perspective

I was a 1st Lieutenant in the army. I refused to use the officers mess, the officers cantine, instead, i ate and drank with the privates. To much dismay of the other officers, of course. I should annoy the living piss out of the troops, command them into silliness, brake them, be... an 'officer' (read, jackass). I cleaned the toilets with them, I peeled potatoes with them, I did everything they did. When we were on maneuvers, I often asked my men for advice, rather than just command them, because, even though 'merely' a private, this private could have a marvelous idea I did not think off. We discussed the upsides and downsides of ideas. Now, here's the funny part... When others 'commanded' the same troops, they did not really feel up to do it. I, on the other hand, only had to ask, and they went further than I asked them to. How you approach a certain group, makes the whole difference...

I watch this every year. Really helps remind me of the kind of leader I want to be, regardless of the environment I'm in.
@opedromagico

@webuser2014
It's amazing, that not even one minute was boring. Glad Google recommend me this, even after 6 years....
@kerimcandrew4628
Just found this guy. Year 2020. WOW did he nail the 'why we are pissed" down.
@downbntout
I'm a caregiver to senior disabled people, under the heel of a shareholder-driven company, with angry people on all sides, and this made me see how I can be part of the solution.
@MakeSushi1
he is a great public speaker!

I can tell you why I eat last. I am a Construction Manager, big jobsites, big crews. When work is on, it's ON.... lot's of dangerous activities in construction. Everyone needs to focus. When lunchtime comes and the guys sit down to relax, that's when I go out to talk to them. Real leaders care about people, and they know non-work conversation is the way to get to know them. I spend lunchtime forming relationships, sharing what we care about outside of work. I pride myself on forming high performance teams that work together to accomplish amazing things. Lunchtime is too important a time for a real leader to sit locked away in the office eating and reading the internet.
@stephenland9361
"Why Leaders Eat Last" This reminds me of a university visiting prof that taught a two semester course in human physiology I took, years ago. He was ex-military, having been an officer in the US army where he marched soldiers around a desert to study dehydration and acclimation to heat over time. He once said that a good officer always made sure the troops ate first. He then admitted that the officers, eating later ate far, far better food.

There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.
@MrVirly
Whenever I need it, which isn't often, but regularly, I watch the part where he explains Self-Interest as the Cost of Leadership which kicks in at 24:00. We are OK with the perks and higher pay and status that leaders get because we trust that when the time comes, they will sacrifice themselves for us and protect us from outside dangers. They are never supposed to sacrifice us for themselves. I'm so all in with this approach. Our leaders need to protect and support us, that's the value they bring to us and we'll push ourselves to be the best we can if we trust that they have our back.
@prajapatiurvesh3535
Leadership has nothing to do with the position or rank, the moment you have started become shield for the person around you, you will become a leader. Exceptional speech and presentation!
