What Got You Here Won't Get You There by Marshall Goldsmith

BATB score: 10/10! ⭐️🌟⭐️

Amazing. Bravo. Worth every chapter. Clear actionable. Reflective. Concise. #MarshallGoldsmith you genius!

Best as: a wake-up call for all senior managers and/or C-level-to-be that “It’s not about you. It’s about what other people think of you” - you are now a public figure and showing such self-improvement desires is positively accepted

Best for: 'bad boss attitude' may have gotten you here; but 'good boss leadership' will get you there

Best as: dare to take feedback and 'feed-forward' and say "thank you, I will be better" or "thank you, you have gotten me something to think about" or "thank you." I feel like post-reading this book has ready made me a better leader than pre-reading this book.

Random note: this book has a lot of smart heart-striking quotes.

“Being smart turns people on. Announcing how smart you are turns them off.”

"When we do what we choose to do, we are committed. When we do what we have to do, we are compliant."

"Less me. More them. Equal success."

"The more you subsume your desire to shine, the more you will shine in the other person's eyes."

"Thank you." And just shut up.
