“It is wonderful to have a successful professional freely share information to help others grow—for their sakes to be a better leader. Not primarily to make a buck. Making a difference in someone’s life requires sacrifice and connection—and Simon, the subscription does just that. We are all human and desire for someone to care enough to share nuggets of wisdom—because they care. I once saw a small picture that said, ‘to teach is to touch a life forever.’ I believe it is true. All the best.”

“So far, I am very amazed by the content of the library. As I am working in the field of HR for 25 years, I am trying to figure out how applicable the content is and I have just started to get into it in detail.
I have been following Simon for a while and have to say that these concepts is what the world out there needs. A leader is having the biggest impact on the working environment in so many aspects, from hiring the right people to coach them to grow, bringing across the values and culture and building trust by example.
I really love the inspirational newsletters as well as the daily quotes and I feel priviledged to be part of this community.
Thank you for your inspiration!”

Love the content. Although I expected to see Simon on a few more of the videos 🙏…
Some are like webinars and could be arranged better. Remove non-essential info and questions from attendee

I do love it, but wish Simon presented some of them

I like the video content in the optimism library but it would be incredibly helpful to be able to also access the slide deck and handouts mentioned in each recorded webinar. The downloadable discussion guides are okay but not the same items mentioned by presenters during the webinars.
Pretty great actually—thanks so much for asking! We hope you’re having a great day as well.

A spark is something quite small and, by itself, not very powerful. But a spark has the ability to ignite. An idea is like a spark; alone it is just a set of words, but it too can ignite. A great idea can inspire others to dream bigger. Let us all work together to ignite something greater than ourselves.
Let us all be a Spark of Optimism.
