Marshall Goldsmith
About
I'm founder of MarshallGoldsmithAI and wrote four New York Times bestsellers.
Experiences
- Founder at Marshall Goldsmith Advisors, MarshallGoldsmithAIGiving away everything I know for free, through AI
I tried for 20 years with interactive video and clunky boxes: fail, fail, fail. Now MarshallGoldsmith.ai works.
- FamilyAsked my kids how I could be a better parent
My daughter said the travel wasn't the problem, ignoring her at home was. My family days went from 92 to 135.
- Founder at 15 CoachesOffered to teach 15 people everything I know, free
None of my heroes ever charged me. Over 12,000 people applied, so we grew it to 100 Coaches.
- Founder at The Marshall Goldsmith GroupCreated a coaching method 1 in 3 Fortune 500 firms used
Progress isn't judged by me or my client but by everyone around them. Over 5,100 coaches are certified in it.
- Early lifeAt 14, a poor roofer taught me how I'd get paid
Dennis Mudd told my dad: if the roof is good, pay me, if not it's free. Poor, but not cheap. My billing came from him.
- BooksWrote over 60 books, four of them NYT bestsellers
Of my first 20, two or three sold the millions. The rest were purchased by my mother, my father and relatives.
- Paul Hersey's organizationFilled in for my double-booked mentor, and ranked first
Paul Hersey offered $1,000 for a day when I made $15,000 a year. MetLife was angry I wasn't him.
- Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Organizational Behavior Studies at UCLA Anderson School of ManagementLearned at UCLA I came across as negative and whiny
Dr. Fred Case said I'd never graduate that way. I kept working hard but started helping more and judging less.
