In this episode, we dive into the influential ideas of Simon Sinek and explore the importance of starting with “why.” From a metaphorical fresh start inspired by a haircut to real-world examples from Apple and Harley Davidson, the conversation focuses on how understanding motivations can transform personal and professional growth.
We also unpack what it means to think strategically, going beyond surface-level tasks to the deeper context that drives successful outcomes. Along the way, we share anecdotes, practical advice, and frameworks that can help you apply these concepts to everything from mentoring engineers to solving complex technical challenges.
Join us as we explore the power of leading with “why” and how it can help you align decisions, communications, and actions with your core values.
As always, we’d love your feedback! Share your thoughts, favourite moments, and topics you’d like us to cover next.
