Triggers : sparking positive change and making it last
Executive coach and psychologist Marshall Goldsmith discusses the emotional triggers that set off a reaction or a behavior in us that often works to our detriment. Do you find that at times you suddenly become defensive or enraged by an idle comment from a colleague? Or that your temper rises when another car cuts you off in traffic? Your reactions don't occur in a vacuum. They are the result of emotional and psychological triggers that often happen only in specific settings -- at meetings, or in competitive situations, or with a specific person who rubs you the wrong way, or when you feel under particular pressure. Being able to recognize those triggers and understand how the environment affects our behavior is key to controlling our responses and managing others at work and in life. Make no mistake -- change is hard. And the starting point is the willingness to accept help, and the desire to change. Over the course of this book, Marshall explores the power of active questions to get us to take responsibility for our actions -- and our failure to act. Questions such as \"Did I do my best to make progress toward my goal?\" \"Did I work hard at being fully engaged?\" He discusses the importance of structure in effecting permanent change. Because, he points out, change is hard, and without a structure to keep us on track, we inevitably relapse and fall back. Filled with stories from Marshall's work with executives and leaders, Triggers shows readers how to achieve meaningful and sustained change that will allow us to open our imaginations and escape the rigidity of binary thinking.
What got you here won't get you there : how successful people become even more successful !
Your hard work is paying off. You are doing well in your field. But something is standing between you and the next level of achievement. That something may be one of your annoying habits. Perhaps one small flaw - a behavior you barely even recognize - is the only thing that's keeping you from where you want to be. It may be that the very characteristic that you believe got you where you are - like the drive to win at all costs is what's holding you back. As this book explains, people often do well in spite of certain habits rather than because of them - and need a \"to stop\" list rather than one listing what \"to do.\" Marshall Goldsmith's expertise is in helping global leaders overcome their annoying unconscious habits and become more successful. His one-on-one coaching comes with a six-figure price tag - but in this book, you get his great advice for much less. Recently named as one of the world's five most-respected executive coaches by Forbes, he has worked with over 100 major CEOs and their management teams at the world's top businesses. His clients include corporations such as Goldman Sachs, Glaxo SmithKline, Johnson and Johnson, and GE.
