Last week, Marshall Goldsmith was in town for our private LeaveSmarter event, sponsored by BMO Harris and Whyte Hirschboek Dudek. Marshall delivered a moving hour-long talk on effecting positive change through proven methods. As Dr. Goldsmith puts it, the key to improvement is not simply knowing what to do. The key is simply doing what we already know we should do.
Check out Dr. Goldsmith's book, What Got You Here Won't Get You There for more insights into improving your success rate in work and in life. Visit him online for even more.
