Great leaders set the tone and make us feel safe

Randall Friesen, who is himself an outstanding leader, highlighted this TED video. In the video Simon Sinek practically plagiarizes Jesus -- although I doubt that Jesus is offended.

• "Look! Those who are last will be first and those who are first will be last.” ~ Jesus (Luke 13:30)
• "This is my commandment: love each other just as I have loved you. No one has greater love than to give up one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. I don’t call you servants any longer, because servants don’t know what their master is doing. Instead, I call you friends, because everything I heard from my Father I have made known to you. You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you could go and produce fruit and so that your fruit could last. As a result, whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you. I give you these commandments so that you can love each other." ~ Jesus (John 13:12-17)
