Book Description

October 2003
Secrets of a Leadership Coach is a premium leadership training series that brings the wisdom of one of America's top CEO coaches to every employee and manager. The series has hundreds of video clips, role plays, and animations. It will result in better leadership, personal interactions, and team-building. Upon the completion of Secrets of a Leadership Coach 1 Executive Coaching Techniques (number 1 in the series), you will be able to describe the coaching and feedback process, define the feedforward process, identify some typical behaviors of leaders that need to be changed, analyze how traditional feedback is different, recognize classic challenges in helping successful people change, and explain why leaders don't always complete the coaching process after starting it.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A learning environment similar to being in a live, participative workshop. Useful and relevant." Four star rating. -- Foreword Reviews, October, 2004

...an outstanding presentation of principles of leadership.... It is the best CD I have seen on the subject. -- Seymour Feshbach, Former Chairman, Dept. of Psychology, UCLA

From the Publisher

4 Star Rating for the series from Foreword Reviews:

Successful people do not need to learn what to do to be an effective leader as much as they need to learn what and when to stop! With a book, a Windows-based computer, an interactive CD, and a unique user code to unlock the program, in Secrets of a Leadership Coach Manual authors Farb, Goldsmith, Gordon, and Coffey provide five courses to present leadership coaching ideas that develop leaders, help leaders develop others, and help leaders develop teams.

The CD chapter introductions include additional information not in the book. In some lessons, the CD chapters are in a different order than in the book. Despite this unrelatedness, video clips from live workshops, animation, review questions after each main course segment, reviews of key points, and all CD parts repeat and enhance the book for a purposeful learning experience. The CD also adapts to help disabled people more easily access information. When CD text is identical to the audio soundtrack in the video, the learners can choose their learning preference: listen to the soundtrack if auditory or read the soundtrack text if visual. Sometimes, the CD requires the visual learner to listen to a video soundtrack. The learner is regularly fully engaged in a participative learning experience with the CD.

Secrets of a Leadership Coach 3, Developing Others, details eight steps on how to coach others. The steps use a distinctive feedback process which Marshall calls feedforward. "Feedforward occurs when a person gives someone else suggestions for the future and helps as much as he or she can." Feedforward in Secrets of a Leadership Coach 3 reinforces the same point made in Secrets of a Leadership Coach 2, Developing Ourselves as Leaders. The third of the eight steps is Collect Feedback, which directs the leader to encourage people to state their feedback in the feedforward mode. While the CD program states, "You don’t have to have forms; you don’t have to have processes," in clarifying this step, the book omits this possible relevant point. Research supports that feedforward produces more positive action in both the sender and receiver than feedback.

In the five courses: Executive Coaching Techniques, Developing Ourselves as Leaders, Developing Others, Developing a Team, and Practice Files, either a beginner or experienced leader is in a learning environment similar to being in a live, participative workshop with the added benefit of being able to repeat the information as much as desired. The CD course provides ample extra discussion and together the set makes for a useful and relevant tool.

Dr. Marshall Goldsmith is a world authority in helping successful leaders get even better - by achieving positive, lasting change in behavior: for themselves, their people and their teams.

Every two years there is a global survey to determine the world's top 50 business thinkers. In 2009 Marshall's friend the late CK Prahalad was ranked #1 and Marshall was ranked #14. To participate in the 2011 Thinkers 50, visit http://www.thinkers50.com/vote.

MOJO was released in February 2010. It is a New York Times and Wall Street Journal top ten best-seller - and the Shanghai Daily #1 business book in China. It is already scheduled to be translated into 14 languages.

In November 2009 Dr. Goldsmith was recognized as one of the fifteen most influential business thinkers in the world in the bi-annual study sponsored by The (London) Times and Forbes. The American Management Association named Marshall as one of 50 great thinkers and leaders who have influenced the field of management over the past 80 years. He is one of only two educators who have won the Institute of Management Studies Lifetime Achievement Award. Major business press acknowledgments include: BusinessWeek - most influential practitioners in the history leadership development, Wall Street Journal - top ten executive educators, Forbes - five most-respected executive coaches, Leadership Excellence - top five thinkers on leadership, Economic Times (India) - top CEO coaches of America, Economist (UK) - most credible executive advisors in the new era of business and Fast Company - America's preeminent executive coach.

Dr. Goldsmith's Ph.D. is from UCLA. He teaches executive education at Dartmouth's Tuck School and frequently speaks at leading business schools. He is a Fellow of the National Academy of Human Resources (America's top HR honor) and his work has been recognized by almost every professional organization in his field. In 2006 Alliant International University honored Marshall by naming their schools of business and organizational studies - the Marshall Goldsmith School of Management.

Marshall is one of a select few advisors who have been asked to work with over 120 major CEOs and their management teams. He served on the Board of the Peter Drucker Foundation for ten years. He has been a volunteer teacher for US Army Generals, Navy Admirals, Girl Scout executives, International and American Red Cross leaders - where he was a National Volunteer of the Year.

Marshall is the million-selling author of many books including: What Got You Here Won't Get You There - a New York Times best-seller, Wall Street Journal #1 business book, winner of the Harold Longman Award for Business Book of the Year and top ten best-seller in seven major countries; Succession: Are You Ready? - a WSJ best-seller; The Leader of the Future -a BusinessWeek best-seller, The Organization of the Future 2 - Choice Award (top academic business books) 2009; and Coaching for Leadership.

This review is from: Secrets of a Leadership Coach 1 Executive Coaching Techniques Manual and CD, The Coaching and Leadership Techniques of Marshall Goldsmith, Illustrated ... For Every Manager and Employee (No. 1) (Spiral-bound)
This is a terrible product. The registration process is complicated and cumbersome. After the product is finally opened the video is limited to a 1 inch by 1 inch presentation. I wonder if Marshall Goldsmith knows the quality of this product is far below the quality of his skills and knowledge?

And once it is opened...it cannot be returned...a waste of money.
