Simon Sinek and his team commit to finding and building the leaders who will work to make this vision a reality. </span></p> 299<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Read Simon’s newest book, âThe Infinite Game,â in which he explores the differences between finite and infinite games and how we can adopt the infinite mindset.</span></p> 300<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Playing the infinite game with a finite mindset</span></h3> 301<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âWe operate in a world, and we do many things, in which there is no finish line,â says Simon. Thereâs no such thing as winning in marriage, friendship, and definitely not in business, but many leaders and influencers talk about being number one, being the first, and beating the competition. </span></p> 302<blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âSo the problem is, if weâre playing with a finite mindset, weâre playing to win in a game in which thereâs no such thing as winning,â </span></p></blockquote> 303<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">he says. As a result, there are predictable and consistent outcomes: decline of trust, decline of cooperation, and decline of innovation.</span></p> 304<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Simon believes that âtoo many of us are playing with a finite mindset in the infinite game of business.â We need to adjust our mindset for the game weâre actually playing.</span></p> 305<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thatâs what Simon wants to help others to do, and his book covers the specific steps to achieve this. </span></p> 306<blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âWe have to have a just cause, trusting teams, a worthy rival, existential flexibility, and the courage to lead,â </sp
306an></p></blockquote> 307<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">says Simon. âIf we can master those things, then we will have adopted the infinite mindset.â</span></p> 308<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">For companies to have purpose, they first have to believe in that purpose</span></h3> 309<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For a company to have a just cause and a purpose, the first criteria is to actually believe in that purpose. Too often, a companyâs stated âpurposeâ is just marketing. Itâs on the website because every company needs to have one, but itâs not actually used to make decisions.</span></p> 310<p>If a company states a purpose and then never refers to this purpose for guidance, and instead continues making decisions based strictly on numbers, then this âpurposeâ is nothing more than appeasement and marketing.</p> 311<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trust is essential to play in the infinite game</span></h3> 312<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another key to adopting the infinite mindset is that we must have trusting teams. </span></p> 313<blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âIn a trusting team, people admit mistakes, they ask for help, they point out gaps in their training, they ask to be made stronger, better, and grow,â </span></p></blockquote> 314<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">says Simon.</span></p> 315<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The opposite of a trusting team is a weak team, a team in which people come to work every day lying, hiding, and faking. Of course this kind of team doesnât last long, and eventually cracks will begin to form and things will break.</span></p> 316<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rivalry versus competition</span></h3> 317<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Simon mentions that in order to adopt the infinite mindset we need a worthy rivalâbut what is a rival, exactly? </span></p> 318<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">competitor </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">is someone in a game or competition that we aim to beat, but in an infinite game, we donât have competitors. Instead, we have worthy </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">rivals</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, other players that are better than us at what we do or hope to do, and their strengths reveal to us our own weaknesses.</span></p> 319<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Often when other companies and individuals do well, we get angry, which is proof that we see them as competition rather than worthy rivals. When we have an infinite mindset, we are grateful to the people who are better than us. Their strengths show us where we can work to improve. </span></p> 320<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">It takes courage to go against the status quo</span></h3> 321<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The common denominator all companies should work on is courage, according to Simon. Itâs difficult, but so important. </span></p> 322<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âGoing against the systemâbucking the status quo, and maintaining an infinite mindset in a world that puts unbelievable pressure on us to focus on the short term and the finiteâis really hard, and we cannot do it alone,â says Simon.</span></p> 323<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What it takes is a group of people to care about us and to be there when we start to doubt ourselves. We need to stand together, help each other and start the conversation that maybe there is a better way than the current system. </span></p> 324<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">What the world needs most right now is love and connection</span></h3> 325<blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">âWeâre connected, but weâre not connecting.â </span></p></blockquote> 326<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">says Simon. The quality of human relationships is suffering. Weâre lonely, and too many of us are in pain, and we need to help each other. </span></p> 327<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We have to take care of each otherâour colleagues, our coworkers, the people whose faces and names we know, our real friends.</span></p> 328<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">
328The way weâre going to start taking care of each other is by putting down the phone so that another person feels that weâre there and weâre listening.</span></p> 329<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Being present is an act of service, but itâs become a selfish endeavor. Youâre present not when you say you are, but when others are able to recognize that you see themâwhen they feel heard and that youâre there for them. </span></p> 330<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If the talk resonates with you, weâd recommend you listen to this episode too:Â <a href="http://www.corporateunplugged.com/seth-godin/">Seth Godin</a>.</span></p> 331 332 </div> 333 334 </div> 335 </div> 336 </div> 337</div> 338 339 340 341 342 <a id="backtotop" href="#top"> 343 <i class="fas fa-chevron-up"></i> 344 </a> 345 <div class="footer-ribbon"> 346 <div class="ribbon-close-btn"><i class="fas fa-times"></i></div> 347 By browsing our website and using our services, you acknowledge that we collect data about your visits. 348 <!-- Our privacy policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it and what we use it for. <a href = "/privacy">Read more.</a> --> 349 </div> 350 <div class = "hidden-wrapper"></div> 351 352 <div class = "footer-container "> 353 <div class = "content-wrapper"> 354 355 <div class = "footer-wrapper footer-left"> 356 <a href = "https://corporateunplugged.com"> 357 <div class = "logo-container"> 358 <img src = "https://corporateunplugged.com/wp-content/themes/corporateunplugged/img/corporate-unplugged.png"> 359 </div> 360 </a> 361 </div> 362 <div class = "footer-wrapper footer-listen"> 363 <div class = "footer-title"> 364 <h3>Subscribe</h3> 365 </div> 366 367 <div class = "footer-links"> 368 <div><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/26nVvxo5e5GSRNUqoDPV3b" target="_blank">Spotify</a></div> 369 <div><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/corporate-unplugged/id1225989139?mt=2&at=1001lLfE&ct=CU_Homepage" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a></div> 370 <div><a href="https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d7a44220-6d11-46e9-bbf9-baee78c778e6/Corporate-Unplugged" target="_blank">Amazon Music</a></div> 371 <div><a href="https://pca.st/podcast/8be034e0-083f-0135-ec96-4114446340cb" target="_blank">Pocket Casts</a></div> 372 373 </div> 374 </div> 375 <div class = "footer-wrapper footer-connect"> 376 <div class = "footer-title"> 377 <h3>Connect</h3> 378 </div> 379 380 <div class = "footer-links"> 381 <div><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/vesnalucca" target="_blank">Linkedin</a></div> 382 <div><a href="https://twitter.com/vesnalucca" target="_blank">Twitter</a></div> 383 <div><a href="https://rss.acast.com/corporateunplugged" target="_blank">RSS</a></div> 384 <div><a href="https://www.instagram.com/vesnalucca/" target="_blank">Instagram</a></div> 385 <!-- </ul> --> 386 </div> 387 </div> 388 </div> 389 </div> 390 391 392 393
