Unlock the Future of Work: Insights for Employers and Employees | Full Interview

[@loveandhappinesswithsheila]

I have that creating a company culture that is successful requires the right leadership. There’s actually a very easy and simple way to spot a leader . As you mentioned Simon great leaders lead with empathy and are not afraid to be vulnerable , however, I have noticed a few other qualities that people often fail to spot or look out for -and it’s openness and a genuine love for people in general. If that leader can win over your toughest employees and get the same reaction and approval as your other employees-you’ve got yourself a winner . .

“Chief People Officer” I love it!!! ❤

[@kopimaniahq4847]

Praise God that in Malaysia, I have found a business of a friend whose office is like what Simon said, "Calling the CEO and say that I just want to work from home" and the CEO said okay. It's a flexible business office. But that is the only office that I know operating like that. Hopefully, I will be the next one. And hopefully, there are more offices, businesses like this. Thank you Simon for your sharing of knowledge. I love your work and I have begun to share this idea here in Malaysia, in a miniscule, my way for people who wants to learn.

I am a former School Administrator in a Private School. Basically things or knowledge you learn in school are your strong basic foundation. But realistically once you work, that makes the difference between schooling and work place, but all the knowledge I learned are all important in my work application. And when I enroll in Graduate School Education Management and Supervision it really broaden my horizon. Being on the top of an Institution, everyday is a learning experience for me. Create an environment of strong communication especially my faculty because they are the front lines, the non- teaching employees all of these boils down to a strong communication. Am a good listener and absorb everything with that Iarrived sound decisions. And when I resigned to pursue other career, it was amazing that my faculty, parents etc. we remain cordial, friends, I think I've done my part well. Treat everyone as human being. There is no perfect leadership,it's gut and feel, and I always said correct me if am wrong am just human, am not perfect, I have a share of imperfection. No perfect leader were humans❗💖🥰🌹

There is an osmosis of skills and ideas that comes from working in the same space and I do worry that we lose a lot of that when everyone works from home.

[@getgooddad]

Only a Sith deals in absolutes 😂

[@catatonicbug7522]

Employee training and upskilling needs to become an intentional action, where bosses make sure everyone is growing in a way they want to.

[@ianmastin]

@@catatonicbug7522 I agree completely and that isn't what I'm referring to in my original post. When people work together in the same space it creates a natural environment where professional and social interactions can lead to a spontaneous sharing of ideas and information that is harder to schedule or train... just overhearing a co-worker solve a problem for a client or taking part in a conversation on a break or one of any number of random interactions between people naturally facilitates this process which can benefit everyone involved. The outcome of these interactions can even go beyond the initial participants in the form of secondary conversations with others and can thus impact an entire team or department.... I'm finding it hard to put what I mean into words but it isn't the type of thing you can force into existence with any amount of training or meetings... it just happens in that environment and the loss of this natural osmosis should not be taken lightly.

I’m with you on that one! The full team working from the office has some magic mojo that can’t be reproduced remotely.

[@Jonathan_Solomon]

As someone who started their corporate career during the pandemic, I completely agree. Traditional life timers will probably enjoy the freedom and flexibility of remote work more. But when you're trying to climb the ladder and understand internal operations, working around others in and out of your department creates a needed osmosis in order to stay on pace with the company. Unless you have loads of self-discipline, great communication, and perception, it's quite easy to get out of the loop of things.

Terrific interview! Conceptual and actionable! Insights and ideas descend like hailstones in Kericho :) Mesmerizes the listener! Thank you for sharing this entire interview. A leadership gift :)

[@disciplineddrama]

FANTASTIC interview. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@sophiaisabelle01]

May God bless everyone. Have a good day.

Exciting exchange about future work aspects especially teaching young people skills to have uncomfortable conversations and helping people grow. I deeply believe these skills will bring young people a superb benefit for their private life too. Love the high five meeting ideas to become more robust teams. The awareness of opposite feelings at the same especially during covid and past covid I can so much relate to. It was fun to listen to the both of you. I wonder if government rules can ever bring a break through on economical and flexible work styles of the future. I believe innovative companies will work it out without the need of law enforcement.

The HR position will not be in the future of the work force. It’s a drain on resourced. The ads made this tough to watch.

[@fastfutureforwardbychristi9064]

" To believe is to know you believe, and to know you believe is not to believe" (Sartre) >>>or as you mentioned the book at the end: a religious case against belief:)) thanks for that rabbit whole, another two books to read:))

[@rachelsukuna-du8zz]

Thank you🙏very true, we need more flexibility.🙏

[@OlgaSuner-dx7fq]

😄😄 people who can cook any dish in 5 different ways are called geniuses in my book. I like how violinist described that music happens between the notes. Also there is a musical tool called compressor. Compressor helps to balance out the level of a signal and make its dynamic range more consistent. This is useful because, if a signal's dynamic range is too great, it can be difficult to set the fader to one position for the whole song. Point being everyone of us should have that compressor inside of us to keep equilibrium.

Superrrb Awesome Fantastic video

[@kyrsid]

how will people get promotions and rise up in the corporate ladder?

[@jeanleguique4280]

Probably that employees want to escape their livestock condition, as much as possible. Manager's sincerity and empathy won't solve this. I for one want to be hired by a "cooperative company" where employees are shareholders and decide for the company direction (yes, it exists, at least in France).

[@william7286]

I think most educated HR professionals get all this. Unfortunately, even at the level of leadership that the moderator holds, ultimate decisions are usually made by Finance and Operations - functions that continue to view employees merely as assets and liabilities.

[@Gerrikight67]

I love Simon - it’s now over 3 minutes in, and he hasn’t spoken one word- I’ll sign off and come back to see if he speaks - lol

[@FantasticMoron]

Most workplaces and co workers are toxic, WFH allows one to be selective with only quality human interactions (may include some co-workers)

[@catatonicbug7522]

A 4 hour work week? As long as I still get the same paycheck!

[@sdgt75]

Would love to watch Simon Sinek’s videos and listen to him, but when every sentence is interrupted by an « ummm », it makes me nervous. So actually, in my opinion, not a good speaker at all.

[@mariusduus425]

Done... you are too late!

[@Markbenwisch]

The Noah Story again?!

[@mw354]

Congress has no appreciative understanding of working in corporations….Particularly TEAM. They need to stop

[@holgerm420]

Nothing can replace real human connection? Thousands of online gamers or open source developers would disagree. This is once again a stance against working from home.

First comment. :)

[@marcwilliams7605]

people, grown men do this? Still? At least have something to say, contribute, etc. Cheers

[@Markbenwisch]

Everything I hear from Simon about Leaders being empathic, putting people in center instead of productivity, building up more flexibility to the team, working from home and stuff, being compassionate, 4 hours work week, involving workers in decision making, everything is about processes.... This stuff doesn't work! It's about duty not flexibility, about results not processes, about commanding respect and being integre not compassionate and empathic. If every leader would do what Simon recommandates every job was about a living hell! Cause of the massive corruption and selfpitiness of workers only making demands and sucking out the company. I have seen this! A absolutly toxic workplace where nothing is done right, because of the fear of leaders about not being accepted or just being lazy, too emotionally, too ineffctive or inefficient. Fact is: Bad Leaders are best opportunity to stand up as a worker and engage with management, moving forward and evolve. That's where true skills come from. On the other side: Leaders must seek that! They have to recognize the skills of that worker and build on that. But first they have to know how to spot and measure skillsets. If you do so as a leader or worker, you probably doing a lot things the right way. That's all. And please! DON'T HIGH 5 YOUR WORKERS! Workers need discipline not a everybody's best friend boss. Personally, as you were my boss I would look down on you, instantly! Because I do not respect you cause of this. It shows only lack of interest in good work through focus and selfmotivation and lack of integrity as well. Greetings from Reality
