Marshall Goldsmith: The Essentials Of Leadership

See, when you're in school, you take test after test after test after test. You had to prove you're smart over and over, thousands of times you have to prove you're smart. It's very difficult to stop. You have to learn to quit being right all the time. And quit being smart all the time. And quit thinking this is a contest about how smart you are and how right you are.

And realize that I'm here. To make a positive difference in the world. And me being smart and me being right. is probably no longer the way to do that. Welcome to the Knowledge Project Podcast. I'm your host, Shane Parrish.

The goal of this show is to master the best of what other people have already figured out. To that end, I sit down with people at the top of their game to uncover what they've learned along the way. Every episode is packed with timeless ideas and insights that you can use in life. And business. If you're listening to this, you're missing out.
