The greatest challenge any organization faces is success says Simon Sinek. As organizations grow, inevitably they reach "The Split," a point when what the organization does gets separated from why it does it. When this happens the emphasis on making money increases along with the stress level. At the same time, passion and trust decrease. Simon calls on us to make "handshake friends," engage in "handshake dialogues," and build "handshake businesses." In this way, we can return to valuing human relationships and get back to a place where trust becomes the standard, not the exception.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)

  • Thanks Simon, excellent talk. Your perspective on being human in a technological world is extremely important. FYI, I have an article that discusses this from a UX design point of view on my web site (tuag dot ca) called "The Problem With Human-Computer Interaction"

  • Matrix ...... The Girl In Red ....... active democratic participation in government was undermined by Bernays ...... Freud ....... and the corporations ....... bots to purchase our products ........... don't worry about the government ....... WE WILL MANAGE THAT ..........

    Context is faulty ......

  • some good points.. :/ However, how were the 50's so wonderful? Most people trusted blindly in Gov./Work, because of lack of INFORMATION, which is more accessible now. And, Women didn't have a voice and were not equally paid at work. Plus who is he to say Hippies weren't been fulfilled??

  • Simply powerful. You a great a speaker…very convincing.
