Product Description:
America’s most sought-after executive coach shows how to climb the last few rungs of the ladder
The corporate world is filled with executives, men and women who have worked hard for years to reach the upper levels of management. They’re intelligent, skilled, and even charismatic. But only a handful of them will ever reach the pinnacle -- and as executive coach Marshall Goldsmith shows in this book, subtle nuances make all the difference. These are small 'transactional flaws' performed by one person against another (as simple as not saying thank you enough), which lead to negative perceptions that can hold any executive back. Using Goldsmith’s straightforward, jargonfree advice, it’s amazingly easy behavior to change.
Executives who hire Goldsmith for one-on-one coaching pay $250,000 for the privilege. With this book, his help is available for 1/10,000th of the price.

Rating: - A Playbook for Any Leader
This book rates an A+ on total practicality.

I highly recommend this book to anyone taking on more responsibility, especially new managers or managers facing challenging people issues. This is a leader behavior ... Read More
Rating: - This book WILL get you there
For so many years I've had the privilege of advising managers and leaders within the private and military sectors about human relations and workplace mastery. I can only imagine how much more effective I would have been had Dr. Goldsmith's book--What Got You Here Won't Get You There--been available as the model; both for me, the advisor, and the leaders I serve.
What Got You Here... is not just another personal/professional development book to help leaders reach the next level; it's the manual. ... Read More
Rating: - Wisdom in Simplicity
Having read Marshall's book and a few of the reviewes, both the postive and not so positive I'm left with the thought that people who value relationships and desire to achieve the next level of leadership will love this book.
They will love it for a couple of reasons. First, many years ago I learned that it's the simple things in life that are most profound. His suggestions are simple but possess a great deal of wisdom. Marshall obviously realizes from his experience in coaching and life what is ... Read More
Rating:  - Razor-sharp stories for growing leaders
Goldsmith brings us a fabulous leadership text for leaders at any and all phases in their career. From a youngster just out of MBA school, or a seasoned CEO, all people looking to improve will find value.
The highlights:
--People fail to implement change because they are too busy.
Change isn't easy, but it is ever-present in today's society. If you want a 'change' to happen in your personal or professional life, you must make it at the top of your list. Goldsmith soars as he describes ... Read More
