The Power of Purpose Why do some companies/leaders thrive while others struggle? It all comes down to understanding and communicating our “why.” 1- Start With Why: - Simon Sinek author of “Find Your WHY,” defines your “why” as the contribution you make to the world. - It’s not just about what we do; it’s about why we do it. Purpose drives everything. 2- Inspiring vs. Manipulating: - Inspiring leaders start with their purpose, attracting loyal followers who share their vision. - Manipulation relies on short-term tactics; inspiration creates lasting impact. Action Steps: * Reflect on your personal “why.” What impact do you want to make? * Communicate your purpose authentically. Let it guide your decisions. Remember, purpose-driven actions lead to meaningful results. Start with your “why.” Illustration by me aka Mazvisualinsights💡 If the message resonates with you, please share it with your network 🫶🏻 #mazvisualinsights #personaldevelopment #growthmindset #personalgrowth #careerdevelopment #simonsinek #purpose #leadership #startwithwhy

“𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲. 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲.” – Simon Sinek. This quote perfectly embodies how I interpret servant leadership. For me, it’s about putting people first, building trust based relationships, and empowering teams to succeed. It never is about titles or the legal authority; it’s about serving others with empathy and a clear purpose. I’ve compiled some of my favorite Simon Sinek quotes that have inspired my journey as a leader. From the importance of trust to finding passion in what we do, his words are a reminder of what truly matters. And honestly, every time I come across one of his appearances the first thought that comes to my mind is "It is sooo obvious" - yet, many many don't get it. 💡 What’s your favorite Simon Sinek quote, or which one inspires you the most?

🎯 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐆𝐨𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐬 It's that time of the year! The time when intentional people pause to think deeply about what success means for them in the new year. In the next month Tracy Spears, CSP and I will be doing Goals Setting workshops all over the world, helping smart leaders be decisive about 2025. Did you know that only 3% of people have written goals? Did you know that those 3% are 30X more likely to accomplish their goals that people who don't write them down. That's not a typo... they are 30 times more likely to turn their goals into reality. I know a lot of you are already in that 3% group. For those of you who aren't, here's a great template you can use. Welcome to the 3%! For 20+ years The Leader Lab has been providing Goals Setting sheets to our friends, colleagues and clients. It's come to the point where our inboxes will start to fill up with messages like: "When are the new goals sheets being released?" in late November. So here's the 2025 format. I encourage you to take some quiet time by yourself... or with your partner... or with your parents... or your kids... and decide what 2025 could look like. All of the key ideas are on the sheets, you can leverage them to drive some remarkable outcomes in this new year. Good luck and please let us know if you have any questions! #leadership #coaching #goals #goalsetting Vistage Worldwide, Inc. #2025 #vistage

It doesn’t matter how good you look, how many people follow you, or how often you talk about being in charge. If you’re not Really a leader, your business, your team, and your success will fall apart. You can’t just act like a leader, you have to Be that leader, and here’s why: 🟢 Leadership is all about Confidence    ► If you show any signs of doubt, your team, clients, and followers will start doubting you too. 🟢 People Follow Who They Trust    ► If your team sees that you're committed to your words and deliver on them, they’ll have no doubt in following you. 🟢 Leaders Take Responsibility    ► Leaders don’t blame others when things go wrong, they take the hits, learn from their mistakes, and keep moving forward. 🟢 A True Leader Has a Strong Mindset    ► Leaders keep pushing forward with determination, even when things get tough. 🟢 Leaders Protect and Guide Their People    ► A true leader makes sure their people feel safe, supported, and have the tools to grow. Remember, 🦊 → Stop pretending to be a leader and start Being one. → Take control, be the person who leads with confidence, takes responsibility, and backs up their words with action. And remember: A leader is like a smartphone battery, if you don't stay charged, you're not going to last long!

Sometimes, standing alone is the best way to show our strength and resilience. Embracing solitude can be empowering because it helps us realize what we’re capable of. It means: ✅ Inner strength: Trusting ourselves to make decisions, even in uncertain times. ✅ Authenticity: Staying true to who we are, no matter what others think. ✅ Personal growth: Facing challenges head-on helps us grow and learn. 💡 It’s not about isolation, but about being true to yourself when it matters most. By standing strong, we inspire others to embrace their uniqueness and live authentically. ------ ♻️ Follow for more self-growth insights. 📌 Join 11k+ for tips on leadership, growth, and business: https://lnkd.in/d_2EbYaV

Leadership is not about being in charge, it is action and example: It is about taking care of those in your charge. It’s about bringing out the best in others . It's about creating a vision and inspiring others to make it a reality. A leader is one who empowers others to lead. It's about empowering your team and fostering a culture of growth and collaboration. #leadership #motivation #business #success #entrepreneur #inspiration #mindset #leadershipdevelopment #coaching #leader #entrepreneurship #training #love #education #growth #goals #marketing #management #community #leaders #teamwork #personaldevelopment #innovation #communication #coach #publicspeaking #life #quotes #motivationalquotes #lifestyle #empathy #compassion #kindness #mentalhealth #empath #community #happiness #bekind #life #humanity #emotionalintelligence #understanding #respect #inspiration #mindset #empathymatters #connection https://lnkd.in/dphHW_55
