Simon Sinek Unfiltered: The Trap Leaders Must Avoid

I want them to have a difficult conversation. If I have to have a difficult conversation with somebody, I'm going to learn those skills of how to have that difficult conversation because I want to whip it in the bud.

Even if it's really, really uncomfortable, I'm going to sit in the mud with that person. If somebody's underperforming, I'm not going to scream and yell at them and fire them. I'm going to be like, what's going on? Are you okay? I know you're better and smarter than the work you're giving me.

So either something's changed that I don't know about or something's gone on in your life that I can support you with if I need to. And if you don't want to tell me, that's fine, but I need to know what's going on.

I view work relationships like all relationships, right? Which is, if you have problems with your spouse, the default is not divorce. You don't be like, oh, we had a fight, you're out. We had four fights this week, I'm out of this, right? There's an agreement that, whether tacit or expressed, that we will do the work for the good of the relationship.

We both agreed that this is a relationship and we'll do the work. And if you ask the best marriages, like the people who I want a relationship like yours, if you ask them what's your secret, they all say the same thing. It's hard work and we do the work. Well, it's hard being friends. You do the work. It's hard being a colleague. It's hard being a leader in a company. And you do the work.

And I think, you know, I'm a believer in this thing called the infinite mindset, which is you're never done, but you're always striving to do better. There's no finish line. There's no such thing as best. But every day I strive for better. And I think that's how we approach it.
