Publisher's summary

What's holding you back? 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. Perhaps one small flaw, a behavior you barely even recognize, is the only thing that's keeping you from where you want to be.

Who can help? Marshall Goldsmith is an expert at helping global leaders overcome their (sometimes unconscious) annoying habits and attaining a higher level of success. His one-on-one coaching comes with a six-figure price tag. But with this audiobook, you'll get Marshall's great advice without the hefty fee!

What is the solution? The Harvard Business Review asked Goldsmith, "What is the most common problem faced by the executives that you coach?" Inside, he answers this question by discussing not only the key beliefs of successful leaders, but also the behaviors that hold them back. He addresses the fundamental problems that often come with success and offers ways to attack them. Goldsmith outlines 20 habits commonly found in the corporate environment and provides a systematic approach to helping executives achieve a positive change in behavior.

Solid, not great

Some good information, but it takes quite a while to get to the actual action plan for each area.

Transformation

I absolutely enjoyed this read. I’ve had it in my possession for 8 years and wish I’d read it sooner while I was serving in the Army. I am taking what I’ve read and will be applying it to my personal life as well as how I’ll be moving forward with my non profit organization.
Definitely will be reading again!!

flow was perfect.

Like the narrator plays well at higher speeds and will definitely be coming back to this title again to make sure the content sticks

Vitally Important

at first I didn’t like the way he came off as overbearing and rude. It seemed humiliating instead of constructive, but it’s all true and very much needed. I am so thankful for this book. Thank you.

The Greatest Personal Development Book

I have by now listened to many audible books on Management and self-development. This is by far the best one.

Phenomenal book for those looking to grow forward

This book is a straightforward message to any leader looking to take their leadership from where it is to where it could possibly be. You will not go wrong by investing the time to apply the very practical principles of leadership and Common Sense outlined in this great work.

Excellent!

loved this book!!. A must read for small businesses owners and executives a like t

For the next level of leadership

I recommend this book for anyone in leadership that understands or is trying to understand that leading is not a destination it’s an ongoing journey of learning, failing, success, and personal and professional growth.
