1
- I call it the golden circle.
2
Thank you.
3
- Why, how, what?
4
This little idea explains why some organizations and some leaders are able to inspire where others aren't.
5
Let me define the terms really quickly.
6
Every single person, every single organization on the planet knows what they do 100%.
7
Some know how they do it, whether you call it your differentiating value proposition, or your proprietary process, or your USP.
8
But very, very few people or organizations know why they do what they do.
9
And by why, I don't mean to make a profit.
10
That's a result.
11
It's always a result.
12
By why I mean what's your purpose?
13
What's your cause?
14
What's your belief?
15
Why does your organization exist?
16
Why do you get out of bed in the morning?
17
And why should anyone care?
18
Well, as a result, the way we think, the way we act, the way we communicate, is from the outside in.
19
It's obvious.
20
We go from the clearest thing to the fuzziest thing.
21
But the inspired leaders and the inspired organizations regardless of their size, regardless of their industry, all think,
22
act and communicate from the inside out.
23
Let me give you an example.
24
I use Apple because they're easy to understand and everybody gets it.
25
If Apple were like everyone else, A marketing message from them might sound like this: We make great computers.
26
They're beautifully designed.
27
Simple to use and user friendly.
28
Want to buy one?
29
Meh.
30
And that's how most of us communicate.
31
That's how most marketing is done, that's how most sales is done, and that's how most of us communicate interpersonally.
32
We say what we do, we say how we're different or how we're better, and we expect some sort of behavior, a purchase of votes, something like that.
33
Here's our new law firm.
34
We have the best lawyers with the biggest clients.
35
We always perform for our clients, do business with us.
36
Here's our new car.
37
It gets great gas mileage, it has leather seats.
38
by our car but it's uninspiring.
39
Here's how Apple actually communicates.
40
Everything we do We believe in challenging the status quo, We believe in thinking differently.
41
The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user friendly.
42
We just happened to make great computers.
43
Want to buy one?
44
Totally different, right?
45
You ready to buy a computer from me?
46
All I did was reverse the order of the information.
47
What it proves to us is that people don't buy what you do, people buy why you do it.
48
People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it.
49
This explains why every single person in this room is perfectly comfortable buying a computer from Apple.
50
But we're also perfectly comfortable buying an MP3 player from Apple, or a phone from Apple, or a DVR from Apple.
51
But as I said before, Apple's just a computer company.
52
There's nothing that distinguishes them structurally from any of their competitors.
53
Their competitors are all equally qualified to make all of these products.
54
In fact, they tried.
55
A few years ago, Gateway came out with flat -screen TVs.
56
They're eminently qualified to make flat -screen TVs.
57
They've been making flat -screen monitors for years.
58
Nobody bought one.
59
and Dell Dell came out with MP3 players and PDAs.
60
And they make great quality products and they can make perfectly well designed products.
61
and nobody bought one.
62
In fact, talking about it now, we can't even imagine buying an MP3 player from Dell.
63
Why would you buy an MP3 player from a computer company?
64
but we do it every day.
65
People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it.
66
When we communicate from the outside in, yes, people can understand vast amounts of complicated information, like features and benefits and facts and figures.
67
It just doesn't drive behavior.
68
When we communicate from the inside out, we're talking directly to the part of the brain
69
that controls behavior and then we allow people to rationalize it with the tangible things we say and do.
70
This is where gut decisions come from.
71
You know, sometimes you can give somebody all the facts and your figures and they say, "I know what all the facts and details say, but it just doesn't feel right." Why would we use that verb?
72
It doesn't feel right.
73
Because the part of the brain that controls decision making doesn't control language.
74
And the best we can muster up is, "I don't know, it just doesn't feel right."
75
Or sometimes you say you're leading with your heart or you're leading with your soul.
76
Well, I hate to break it to you, those aren't other body parts controlling your behavior.
77
It's all happening here in your limbic brain.
78
The part of the brain that controls decision making and not language.
79
But if you don't know why you do what you do, and people respond to why you do what you do,
80
then how will anybody How will you ever get people to vote for you or buy something from you, or more importantly, be loyal?

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
