20 Bad Workplace Habits

Marshall Goldsmith is a famous executive coach, who has worked with more than 80 CEO’s in the world’s top corporations. He has a fabulous new book out called What Got You Here Won’t Get You There. Actually, the title is not very descriptive, but the subtitle says it all: 20 workplace habits you need to break. It’s a content-rich, well-written book.
