What Got You Here Won't Get You There

Is there something standing between you and the next level of achievement? That something may just be one of your own annoying habits.

Your hard work is paying off. You are doing well in your field. But there is something standing between you and the next level of achievement. That something may just be one of your own annoying habits.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Perhaps one small flaw—a behaviour you barely even recognise—is the only thing that's keeping you from where you want to be. It may be that the very characteristic you believe got you where you are—like the drive to win at all costs—is what's holding you back. As this book explains, people often do well in spite of certain habits rather than because of them, and need a 'to stop' list rather than one listing what 'to do'.

Marshall Goldsmith's expertise is in helping global leaders overcome their unconscious annoying habits and become more successful. His one-on-one coaching comes with a six-figure price tag—but in this book, you get his great advice for much less. Recently named as one of the world's five most-respected executive coaches by Forbes, he has been asked to work with more than 80 CEOs at the world's top businesses.

What Got You Here Won't Get You There offers invaluable insights and techniques for those aiming to achieve continued success in their personal and professional lives.
