Developing Yourself and Others with Marshall Goldsmith

Growing companies require more effective leaders at every level.

Companies struggle to scale to the next level without leaders who can grow other leaders. All leaders must adapt to increasing responsibility, increasing complexity and dynamic market environments. Companies with stale or stunted leadership will limp along, barely treading water and miss out on vital opportunities.

But here's the conundrum: How can leaders already stretched to their limits inspire others to step up to greater leadership roles?

In the words of Marshall Goldsmith: “one of the best ways top executives can get their leaders to improve is to work on improving themselves.”

Learn to inspire and lead new leaders with the guidance of Marshall, the #1 Leadership Thinker in the World.

Have you met Marshall? You must! We are hosting a webinar with Marshall on September 27th at 2pm ET.

"Did you do your best to be happy today?" - Marshall asks this question as one of his 6 daily questions, reminding us of the active choice we have in shaping our perspectives and consequently, our behaviors. His brilliant insights on managing the triggers to our behaviors and ego is what makes him one of the most successful executive coaches of our time. His generosity and kindness are why he is admired and loved by so many.

“Marshall’s coaching invites leaders to focus relentlessly on their behavior. The leader’s behavior as well as the team’s behavior become the basis for great results and continuous improvement. This will be key to success for the connected, global, knowledge-driven companies of the future.”

“Marshall Goldsmith’s approach to help transform people to live better lives has influenced me and many others to achieve positive, lasting change and behavior at home and at work the world over. Although simple, his message resonates and can be summed up in one phrase “It’s showtime”. And since it’s showtime, time to put your best foot forward to live your best life as Marshall does and enable the same for others on a global scale.”

“Marshall Goldsmith is a sage for the modern world. He brings his honesty, compassion, and wisdom to every book, every speech, every meeting, and every interaction that I have had with him. Marshall knows what I am going to do before I know what I am going to do, which is a testament to how much effort he makes to understand the people around him.”

"Part of Marshall's brilliance is that he's taught me two seemingly incompatible lessons. First, be a great host – welcome in and celebrate the best of people. Second, get really clear who it is you best work with, and then do all you can to work with just that type of person. When you bring out the best in yourself, you bring out the best in others."
