That makes sense.

TED Talks Daily Book Club: Start With Why, 15th Anniversary Edition | Simon Sinek

My generation, we would work really hard, go above and beyond, do the extra projects, stay up, you know, work late.

Then we would go to our boss and say, hey, I've really been going the extra mile.

Can I have a raise or a promotion?

They come and ask for raises and promotions without having done the work.

Well, if I were a young generation going that there's no stability and no loyalty, damn you, I'm going to cash in early and get that promotion and that raise.

Which, if you think about the circumstances, the environment in which they were raised, makes perfect sense.

Like, got to protect numero uno because the company's protecting numero uno.

The company stopped caring about me, so I'm going to stop caring about the company.

And so you're starting to see what is a more selfishly driven relationship

work mentality,

which would be the correct reaction to the environment that work has set.

TED Talks Daily Book Club: Start With Why, 15th Anniversary Edition | Simon Sinek

And so to answer your question, how do you solve it?

TED Talks Daily
TED Talks Daily Book Club: Start With Why, 15th Anniversary Edition | Simon Sinek

I can't ask the employees to change.

TED Talks Daily
TED Talks Daily Book Club: Start With Why, 15th Anniversary Edition | Simon Sinek

That's not fair.

It's the companies that set the rules.
