When it comes to investing, we want our money to grow with the highest rates of return, and the lowest risk possible. Whilethere are no shortcuts to getting rich, but there are smart ways to go about it.

[@SlippPlays]

A leader is a teacher. A leader is a servant who is equal to the people surrounding them and cares for them by giving them the basic necessities. A leader is also a student who is also learning from their actions, and their consequences. A leader is a doctor who tries to heal any problems that are occurring in the team and tries to solve them. Yes, you get the perks, but that’s not the reward of a leader. The real reward is the successors for who you have reached and how many generations it passes down to. How many people were inspired by your actions and words? To become a leader, it requires work, it requires the respect to your followers, and in return, the respect from your followers. A leader’s job is to motivate a person into doing something and making them passionate about it. It’s not just about giving commands and sitting back. It’s about communication and team building, and a leader should know that every person contributes. Now this comment is a fraction of what he said, and it’s not nearly of what the full detail is said. I could not explain it in full words myself of what a leader is, and this video explain it all.

[@Wolfspirit50]

Simon, Thank You for this. Being a leader is a two way street. I was in a leadership position in 2008. I made a lot of mistakes, and I learned a lot too. Being a leader is not being a dictator. It's listening to other team players, it's dealing with people and fellow team players with diplomacy, tact, and remaining respectful and polite. Thank You for the encouragement here in this video.

[@zhyakoxalid6892]

Hello good sir, you may not see my reply but I will ask you a question because you were in a leadership role. (Using specific examples from your experience, what are two strengths that you have as a leader? How did you develop these strengths? Conversely, what are two areas that you would like to grow in, or improve on, in terms of leadership? How will IYLEP help you with these areas of improvement? ) how would you answer this, its an exchange program going to USA for a month. so can you help me?

[@yourname8621]

I remember, it was my first time to be a leader in my entire life and it was for our research subject, I thought I would be handling just 1 research, but it turned out to be 2 researches at the same time. The first thing that came into my mind is that, I need to help them build their confidence in things like this. I told them to not hesitate to point out things that they find uncomfortable with me. I have a lot of self doubt and felt like giving up, because my leadership style is different from my other groups. I focused on helping my members in enhancing their skills and also helping them understand to do things for themselves and for the group as a whole, and not just for me or just because I told them to do so. I doubted myself because I felt like we were delayed (other groups were almost done). But I trusted my members and trusted myself and continued what we were doing. At the end of the school year, our research 1 was defended and set to be published. And for our research 2, it was also defended and we were given a certificate because it was the Best Research Paper from our batch 😊. I am so proud of them and to our group as a whole, and I hope they will always cherish the things that we learned from each other.

[@ScientificBangladesh]

Leadership is not a choice ... We all have leadership responsibility in one or other aspects of life . So we can not choose to be leader.we are bound to be leader. We have to improve our leadership ability so that we can carry out our leadership responsibility.

[@tttiiimmmyyytime9618]

Thank you this is such a good video It really help me with my leadership speech for school!

[@justworm496]

I think everyone should learn when to debate and when to communicate and listen. Because it’s a great quality for leaders and non-leaders alike. Intaking what the other person has to say doesn’t always mean you accept it. I think that’s one of the most misconceptions in listening to another’s ideals and beliefs. Additionally, as he said, it gives the other person a sense of being heard, listened to, and respected.

[@boxoffisa]

This is nice insight. Thanks.

thank you, simon. I love my job. You made this clear to me: loving a job is good to most people. Also, being the last to speak does have two advantages as you said, first let all folks in the room feel they are heard, secondly, give one more time to collect information before expressing an option. Glad to know this was done also by Nelson Mandla.

[@leolavishdoorcom9229]

Simon's message is to help us learn & understand that we need to work on becoming a better person. Only then we can help to better communicate what each of us have learned during our course of Life. A lot of us automatically assume that our Brain is Now charged with some amazing information and then we empower our EGO with temporary knowledge; Some people hear to respond, try Listening to understand. Take time to appreciate your Life (Living)--The meaning of Life is to Live. Sun rises and sets everyday without our help. Stay humble.; Thank you Simon - I'm glad to see someone strong enough to voice this message.

[@patrickballesteros807]

Nice video! Very helpful material for the young leaders out there!

Asking for help can be hard at times , its a lesson in humility . Your words on droping your guard and asking for help is wise tho, because people night think you have it all together until you let them know that you need assistance.

People have become so Selfish,I deserve this I deserve that because “I” Did this. My heart goes out to those who have forsaken they’re own lives for the sake of something greater than themselves.

I have come across a number of manager who keep saying "I AM THE BOSS". I am well a where that such individuals are deep down insecure in there role. In the Military, they dislike/ frown upon individuals who are "symbol tappers" i.e. individuals who "finger tap" the symbol/emblem of their rank, the military want individuals to have they character to shine not the uniform. General MacArthur once said " men follow leaders with good strong character not the uniform".

[@michellen1981]

Here is the problem, how can you feel like you belong in a company or job where the profit does not trickle down to all employees? When you struggle to make ends meet? We should hold our leaders accountable for allowing jobs to become dead end. There is enough wealth to share. Why are the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer?

[@latrobe15]

The more I listen to Simon, the more I hate what he says. Why because he continually articulates what we should already know. Nothing he tells me is new to me. It is funny to say that 95% of us would feel the same way so why is what he says so profound, so insightful and so right? I think it is because that while we will agree, it is not the norm. We do not see what he expounds as an every day thing when it should be. We act, re-react and behave differently. Guess I will keep listening and wait for the impact to hit reality.

Usually real leaders are natural leaders. They often don't try to be a leader. They just happen to be because they have the heart to fix the environment they live or work in. They can be shy people but learn confidence through life. They can be poor people and small people . They are every shape and form. But they have same mind. And in that mind is an intention for the better anything They don't think how to do things to become the leader. They think how to do things so we all could have a smile on our face or so that we all don't have to suffer the same problems again.
