What Go You Here…
… Wont’ Get You There.
Or so says Marshall Goldsmith in his book of the same title. I’m only a few chapters in to this book, but I am enjoying how direct and honest Marshall is with his writing about his work as an Executive Coach to hundreds of highly successful individuals. Why do these successful individuals need a coach, you might ask? These clients probably ask Marshall that exact question, for the first thing he does is unpack how he attempts to make a highly successful person see that they are indeed successful, in spite of some of their traits – not because of them.
It’s what I would call in my job a “circuit-breaker” – tapping into an area or motivator that makes an individual realise a reality that they had never previously considered… and in doing so, highlighting to them that they need to change.
