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.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great book for my clients and my consulting practice
A colleague of mine recommended "What Got You Here Won't Get You There" as a tool I might be able to use for some of my coaching and consulting clients. The book is excellent, and my clients have been able to take immediate and concrete actions that have helped grow their business and accelerate their careers.

I'm not a business book of the month reader. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this book delivered straight forward and practical tools that are helping my clients and ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Nothing new here
After reading a couple of books in this genre, it should be clear that many are saying very similar things in slightly different ways. Hey, who moved my cheese. Wait, wasn't that... I mean it was groundbreaking and I... These authors are getting rich because you keep paying them to say the same things. Think about it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - MSEL (Masters in Executive Leadership" Program at USD - Loves this book
This was one of several books that was used in my Master's Program (MSEL - Master's in Executive Leadership) at USD. We were blessed to have Marshall come and speak to us for several hours and what he writes in this book is truly amazing. Usually you are able to take one or two things out of a Leadership book and apply it. We found ourselves in class applying everything in the book as well as what he spoke to us about. He provided real life use cases and believe me I applied several things on ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This book is geared to help you become more successful leader
Dr. Goldsmith [...] is an amazing executive coach whose philosophy is being taught for the Master of Science in Executive Leadership (MSEL) degree program at University of San Diego. His book "What Got You Here Won't Get You There" is highly recommended. Buy it now and you will not regret it later! One commenter stated it was too late for him. I am here to tell you that the only time it is too late is when you are six feet under. You can teach an old dog new tricks. Watch his Google leadership ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great practical advice on understanding and changing perceptions
We all hope to be better. We all try to be better. Then why is it that others don't see what we are trying to do and the positive changes we are bringing about in ourselves? Marshall Goldsmith's book is a peak inside the difficulties of changing perceptions about one's self and engaging others in that change. It is an outstanding 'do it yourself' book for yourself. Many times we hear ourselves saying, "that is not what I meant" or "you have misunderstood me/my intentions". This book providers ... Read More
