Marshall’s Got MOJO

In his latest book, MOJO: How To Get It, How To Keep It, How To Get It Back If You Lose It, Marshall Goldsmith, along with co-author Mark Reiter, has hit another home run. Following on the heels of his blockbuster book What Got You Here, Won’t Get You There, he gives us MOJO that dishes up another heaping serving of vintage Goldsmith: Smart, straightforward, and significant stuff for success. Simply put, Marshall, ably filling the shoes of the late Peter Drucker, describes ultimate life goals--Happiness and Meaning--and shows us how MOJO can get us there.

Marshall describes this MOJO as “that positive spirit toward what we are doing now that starts from the inside and radiates to the outside.” And if you’ve ever had the opportunity to see Marshall teach, you’ll see MOJO in action. This book contains loads of easy-to-read examples, heartfelt stories, original research, and plain old hard-won experience and wisdom. It’s the kind of book you want to give to your friends, coworkers and especially to your family members and say: “Here, don’t take my word for it (the importance of happiness and meaning in life), read Marshall Goldsmith’s newest book!"
