In Chapter 8 of 23 in his 2013 Capture Your Flag interview, author and public speaker Simon Sinek answers “Why is Trust a Leadership Skill That Should Be Taught?” Sinek shares that because trust is a feeling like loyalty, it is difficult to teach. Over time, however, by creating a circle of safety, Sinek shares ways committed leaders can create inclusive cultures at work that prioritize inclusion, openness, and safety. He shares an example of Goldman Sachs and how over 30 years its culture has shifted from the “Boy Scouts of Wall Street” and collaborative to something more individualist and self-centered. Simon Sinek teaches leaders and organizations how to inspire people. Sinek is the author of two books, “Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Come Together and Others Don’t” and “Start With Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action”. He is a public speaker, an adjunct professor at Columbia University and a Brandeis University graduate.
