Keynote Simon Sinek Presents Unconventional And Innovative Views

The more people you inspire, the more people will inspire you. That’s the central tenant behind Simon Sinek’s vision of a successful organization. Sinek, a bestselling author who teaches leaders and organizations how to inspire people, has been described as a "visionary thinker with a rare intellect." Hundreds of fleet managers from throughout North America will get the opportunity to take in his wisdom during a Keynote Address at NAFA’s 2014 Institute & Expo in Minneapolis, MN on April 10.

"I imagine a world where people wake up every day inspired to go to work and return home at the end of the day feeling fulfilled by the work they do, feeling that they have contributed to something greater than themselves," said Sinek.

Sinek offers an unconventional perspective that explains why some people and organizations are more innovative, more profitable, command greater loyalty and – most importantly – are able to repeat their success again and again. His unconventional and innovative views on business and leadership have attracted international attention, and earned him invitations to meet with leaders in a wide range of sectors, including technology, the military, and government.

A trained ethnographer, Sinek is an adjunct staff member of the RAND Corporation, one of the most highly regarded think tanks in the world, and teaches graduate-level strategic communications at Columbia University. He has spoken to a wide array of clients, including Microsoft, Mars, Intel, 3M, the United States Military, Members of the United States Congress, the Ambassadors of Bahrain and Iraq, multiple government agencies, and entrepreneurs. He has also presented at the United Nations, to the senior leadership of the United States Air Force, and to the senior leaders of NASA. The talk that he gave at his first TED event, "How Great Leaders Inspire," is one of the most shared TED Talks on TED.com.
