#87 Richie Norton interviews Dr. Marshall Goldsmith. Marshall Goldsmith is the only two-time winner of the 'Thinkers 50 Award' for #1 Leadership Thinker in the World. He has been ranked as the #1 Executive Coach in the World and a Top Ten Business Thinker for the past eight years. Dr. Goldsmith is the author or editor of 36 books, including three New York Times bestsellers, that have sold over 2.5 million copies and have been listed as bestsellers in 12 countries. His books, 'What Got You Here Won't Get You There' and 'Triggers' have been recognized by Amazon.com as two of the Top 100 Leadership & Success Books Ever Written. On this episode you'll learn about how Marshall Goldsmith developed the executive coaching industry before there was anything in business called "coaching." Learn how you can be a better CEO, coach, leader, executive, family person and human being. Richie gets emotional as Dr. Goldsmith coaches him through the "Daily Questions" to prioritize happiness in life. A heart-to-heart. Powerful "mojo."
