Purpose and Empathy in Leaders – Mark Zuckerberg

Purpose and Empathy in Leaders – Mark Zuckerberg

by Michael Feeley February 13, 2024

 

ANOTHER LEADER I study is Mark Zuckerberg – Co-Founder of Facebook. I’ve always respected his purpose and mission statement for creating Facebook and his profound, positive desire to serve people and the world.

“Give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together… to offer individuals the capacity to share and make the world more open and connected.”

These are powerful and moving choices to support change through your work.

Change is the choice to create something new, hoping people will like and buy into your services and products and what you offer will have a good effect.

There are risks. Your work will either be successful or not.

Here are some of Mark Zuckerberg’s words to help you better know him and his brand – his story.

 

“By giving people the power to share, we’re making the world more transparent.”

“The biggest risk is not taking any risk… In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.”

“I made so many mistakes in running the company so far, basically any mistake you can think of I probably made. I think, if anything, the Facebook story is a great example of how if you’re building a product that people love, you can make a lot of mistakes.”

“Finding your purpose isn’t enough. the challenge for our generation is creating a world where everyone has a sense of purpose.”

“if you think something is going to be terrible and it is going to fail, then you are going to look for the data points that prove you right and you will find them. That is what pessimists do. But if you think that something is possible, then you are going to try to find a way to make it work. And even when you make mistakes along the way and even when people doubt you, you are going to keep pushing until you find a way to make it happen.”

“People don’t care about what someone says about you in a movie – or even what you say, right? They care about what you build. And if you can make something that makes people’s lives better, then that’s something that’s really good… building something that actually makes a really big change in the world.”

The important question is this – How true have you been to your purpose and values?
