Why good leaders make you feel safe

[Highlight]

in the military, they give medals to people who are willing to sacrifice themselves so that others may gain. In business, we give bonuses to people who are willing to sacrifice others so that we may gain.

it's the environment, and if you get the environment right, every single one of us has the capacity to do these remarkable things,

"Because they would have done it for me." It's this deep sense of trust and cooperation.

"Why do you have treat us like cattle? Why can't you treat us like human beings?"

"Sir, if I don't follow the rules, I could get in trouble or lose my job." All she was telling me is that she doesn't feel safe.

The closest analogy I can give to what a great leader is, is like being a parent.

Great leaders want exactly the same thing. They want to provide their people opportunity, education, discipline when necessary, build their self-confidence, give them the opportunity to try and fail, all so that they could achieve more than we could ever imagine for ourselves.

if you had hard times in your family, would you ever consider laying off one of your children?

they have violated the very definition of leadership. They have violated this deep-seated social contract.

Great leaders would never sacrifice the people to save the numbers. They would sooner sacrifice the numbers to save the people.

 We call them leaders because they go first. We call them leaders because they take the risk before anybody else does. We call them leaders because they will choose to sacrifice so that their people may be safe and protected and so their people may gain, and when we do, the natural response is that our people will sacrifice for us.
