This book is about that moment--and how we can create it in our lives, maintain it, and recapture it when we need it. In his follow-up to the New York Times bestseller What Got You Here Won't Get You There, #1 executive coach Marshall Goldsmith shares the ways in which to get--and keep--mojo to build a successful business and/or career. Having corporate or personal mojo means controlling four elements:
Mojo is: that positive spirit toward what we are doing now that starts from the inside and radiates to the outside. Mojo is at its peak when we are experiencing both happiness and meaning in what we are doing and communicating this experience to the world around us. The Mojo Toolkit provides fourteen practical tools to help you achieve both happiness and meaning - not only in business, but in life. Organizations and people--from Apple to Harley-Davidson, from Richard Nixon to Robert Downey, Jr.--have shown that it can be done. Goldsmith teaches readers to gauge work in terms of mojo and shares insights that will benefit not only top executives and their companies but any one of us--bringing us to, and keeping us at, the top of our game. Reviews "Marshall Goldsmith is one of a kind: a unique and brilliant combination of getting inside our minds about those problems which keep us awake at night- and not only clarifying, but actually solving them! Lively and engaging. A damn good read, which every leader will not only enjoy, but profit from." —Warren Bennis, bestselling author, Distinguished Professor at USC, and world authority on leadership "Marshall's books are very much like Marshall- insightful, direct, focused, wise, clear, somewhat provocative, positive, lively, and energetic. For those who have not worked with Marshall and experienced these qualities, his latest book, Mojo, is a great substitute. Mojo is like him- a little crazy, yet very helpful!" —Jonathan Klein, CEO, Getty Images; American Photo's "Most Important Person in Photography" "Those of us who have been lucky enough to spend time in a classroom with Marshall Goldsmith know what a positive influence his teaching can have. In Mojo, Marshall shares his scholarship more broadly and teaches us all how to turn inertia in our professional or personal lives into meaning and happiness. There is no more important lesson in business or in life!" —Tom Glocer, CEO, Thomson Reuters "As soon as I started reading this book, I felt my Mojo rising. The next best thing to being coached by Marshall is reading his books. His writing always gets me revved up and focused on getting the most meaning and happiness out of my day. This book can elevate any reader's game." —Mark Tercek, CEO, Nature Conservancy; former Managing Partner, Goldman Sachs
