  • Measure momentum.
    The metrics we have to measure success aren't wrong - they're just incomplete.

    Valuable insights! I've left organizations that were more concerned with "looking good" rather than actually "being good". All the perceptual BS gets us nothing but unsustainable, short-term gains and self-delusion.

    This is where you care about the “ What “ => target .

    I have worked in some of the largest organizations in India - one in the Fortune 500 list, and I found this message on "Trust" to be so relevant! Trust and Integrity are more important for sustainable success and overall team morale than just hollow business success parameters.
    Thank you, Simon Sinek for reinforcing this belief.

    In the eastern mind, performance and personal integrity is one and the same, that was how leaders were picked in the ancient times. In the western mind, you can performa at work and be totally be moral-less person and it is accepted. Just an interesting thought. Thanks for sharing Simon.

  • @yasminmuhammadelias3142

    Very well-stated. The principles that matter and ends DON'T justify means. In short, ethics and integrity is all that matters because they bring consistency and momentum.

    Dear Simon, I just want to say that you have really hit the nail on the coffin. I have watched and listened to many of your videos and I believe you are right. The metrics are screwed and it breaks our societies and our humanity in the long run. I will aspire to preach your message to others and to incorporate it in myself. The world needs better leaders. All the best!

Momentum is so critical, and I actually get what you’re saying: we need to find more comprehensive measures for ideal long term performance. Your modern wisdom is so telling, thank you Simon! I want to give my best to the world, and your videos help me articulate why. Thank you, and I hope to meet you some day!

    Let me add.. Success is not measured by other people's point of view or opinion. Success is measured by how well satisfied you are now, and how well you are doing compared to 5 or more years ago.

  • @Snafu2346
    @Snafu2346 4 года назад +16

    This is the complete opposite of how Sprint operates. All they care about is if you hit sales metrics, they don't care how you obtain them. They don't care about who you step on to get it, and in return they reward you. Its despicable. Whoever can fudge their metrics the best will eventually become management, and they will in turn teach their team to fudge metrics. They'll parade one of the highest earners who I found suspect and guess what? After an investigation, was caught committing sales fraud but yet they still parade him to everyone as who we should all aspire to be. People are so afraid of given the absolute that metrics MUST be hit that they'll do every low brow action to obtain them.
    Walking prospects who aren't buying items to create higher margins. Sliding subscriptions under the table without the client knowing. "reduce and replacing" without disclosing it to the customer isn't sales, its just playing the system, and in the end, its just lying.
    The company is near collapse and years of practicing these horrible metric management has destroyed a 100 yr old company in the past 20 years.

  • @cingersing1888
    @cingersing1888 4 года назад

    I grew up in banking when deregulation kicked in - we incentivized and based job performance on outcome numbers - exactly what Simon describes here. And guess what - corruption runs rampant with these types of systems. He is exactly on target here. the perfect opposite - weight loss, another lesson in my life. Can't cheat here mostly. You can set goals till the cows come home but to really lose the weight, you need to be doing the "behaviors" consistently day after day to truly see results.
