One person with no problem reaching a large audience is Simon Sinek. He is an author and leadership expert. His TED Talk, "How Great Leaders Inspire Action," has more than 14 million online views. His new book focuses on those same issues. It's called "Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don’t..."

He said that when workers “feel safe” and that leaders keep their employees interests in mind, the natural human reaction is to “look out for each other. We work harder. We’re more innovative. We offer our ideas and our best talents.”
