Marshall Goldsmith

出生: March 20, 1949 – Valley Station, Kentucky, United States

Marshall Goldsmith is an executive coach and leadership author focused on behavioral change, management, and professional growth. He is best known for What Got You Here Won’t Get You There and Triggers. Widely cited in executive development, he was ranked the world’s No. 1 leadership thinker by Thinkers50.

传记与作者历程

A native of Valley Station, Kentucky, Marshall Goldsmith built an academic foundation before becoming one of management’s best-known coaches on behavior change. He studied mathematical economics at Rose-Hulman, then earned an MBA from Indiana University and a PhD from UCLA Anderson. That education preceded a career defined less by abstract theory than by a structured interest in observable conduct: what leaders do, how colleagues experience them, and whether improvement can be measured in practice rather than merely promised in principle.
