		Marshall Goldsmith "What Got You Here Won't Get You There" September 4, 2007 12 p.m. EST, 45 minutes You are invited to join Marshall Goldsmith for a LIVE 45 minute webinar on how to climb the last few rungs of the executive ladder. In this webinar, participants will learn: Lessons on how to avoid "transactional flaws" which will lead to negative perceptions that will hold any executive back. Tools and methods for understanding the subtle nuances that make the difference between good and great leadership. The corporate world is filled with executives, men and women who have worked hard for years to reach the upper levels of management. They're intelligent, skilled, and even charismatic. But only a handful of them will ever reach the pinnacle -- and as executive coach Marshall Goldsmith shows in this webinar, subtle nuances make all the difference. These are small "transactional flaws" performed by one person against another (as simple as not saying thank you enough), which lead to negative perceptions that can hold any executive back. Using Goldsmith's straightforward, jargonfree advice, it's amazingly easy behavior to change. res
