Show Notes

In this in-depth talk, ethnographer and leadership expert Simon Sinek reveals the hidden dynamics that inspire leadership and trust.

In biological terms, leaders get the first pick of food and other spoils, but at a cost.

When danger is present, the group expects the leader to mitigate all threats even at the expense of their personal well-being.

Understanding this deep-seated expectation is the key difference between someone who is just an "authority" versus a true "leader."
