During my recent Road to Recovery Retreat in Rancho Santa Fe, California, I invited my friend Marshall Goldsmith to the event. My clients were surprised by what he had to say.
Marshall, a prolific bestselling author and executive coach, has mastered the art of helping successful leaders get better. His clients have ranged from Goldman Sachs to the U.S. Army. You would think he encourages leaders to maintain a laser focus on execution, right?
Not so fast.
Marshall has discovered that a true obsession about goals can actually backfire on what the leader is trying to accomplish.
