Product Description:
Americas 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. Theyre 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 Goldsmiths straightforward, jargonfree advice, its 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.

This was an easy and insightful read. Many books introduce *new* models for leadership development and growth. Marshall Goldsmith's extraordinary clarity and wisdom shine through every page. When I was reading the book's top 20 list, I thought Marshall was speaking directly to me - unfortunately, I did each of the twenty things listed. Now, I'm a bit more experienced, and thanks to Marshall, much wiser. Reading this book has propelled me to greater levels of leadership consciousness and, thankfully, ... Read More

Marshall Goldsmith's book What Got You Here Won't Get You There is not only a 'must have' book for managers, leaders and executive coaches, it is also an important model for authors of business books. The good counsel it provides is based on tens of thousands of hours that Dr. Goldsmith (yes, he has a Ph.D.) has spent working with many of the world's most powerful business leaders. In addition to sharing the behavioral leadership lessons he learned and developed working with other successful people, the ... Read More
