In General Business - 800 CEO Read Blog
A catalog just came across my desk from Urano, a publisher that puts out Spanish versions of popular English language books. I couldn't help but mention them along with one of their newest releases. It's for one of our Best Sellers: Un Nuevo Impulso ( What Got You Here Won't Get You There ) by Marshall Goldsmith and it became available this September.
Another noteworthy business title from Urano is for the book El Fin de la Supersticion el en... (Hard Facts) by Jeffery Preffer.

Jack Covert Selects: What Got You Here Won't Get You There

What Got You Here Won’t Get You There: How Successful People Become Even More Successful by Marshall Goldsmith with Mark Reiter, Hyperion, 200 Pages, $23.95 Hardcover, January 2007, ISBN 1401301304
Marshall Goldsmith is huge in the world of executive coaching, so understand that the person this book is written to is not the mail room clerk. It is her supervisors’ supervisor. It is the person with some success under their belt. As a guy who has had some success in my life, I especially understood and appreciated what this book taught me.
The point of the book is actually the title and subtitle. He states:
“The problems we’ll be looking at in this book are not life-threatening diseases (although ignored for too long they can destroy a career). They’re not deep-seated neuroses that require years of therapy or tons of medication to erase. More often than not, they are simple behavioral tics—bad habits that we repeat dozens of times a day in the workplace—which can be cured by (a) pointing them out, (b) showing the havoc they cause among the people surrounding us, and (c) demonstrating that with a slight behavioral tweak we can achieve a much more appealing effect.
Business Audio at The Cranky Middle Manager

The number of podcasts with a business angle are growing. The latest we have come across is The Cranky Middle Manager hosted by Wayne Trumel. I could give you a long drawn out explanation of what Wayne is up to, but it makes more sense to just send you to his 2007 show manifesto.
There are a couple episodes to point you to. Wayne invited our own Mr. Jack Covert onto the show in December. They talked about all that is business books. This week, Wayne had Marshall Goldsmith (What Got You Here Won't Get You There) on his show.
