About this listen

In business, the right behaviours matter. But getting it right is tricky. Even when we acknowledge the need to change what we do and how we do it, life has a habit of getting in the way, upsetting even the best-laid plans. And just how do we manage those situations that can provoke even the most rational among us into behaving in ways we would rather forget? Triggers confronts head-on the challenges of behaviour and change, looking at the external factors (or 'triggers') - both negative and positive - that affect our behaviours, our awareness of when we need to change, our willingness (or otherwise) to do so and our ability to see the change through. Drawing on his unparalleled experience as an international executive educator and coach, Marshall Goldsmith invites us to understand how our own beliefs and the environments in which we operate can trigger negative behaviours, or a resistance to the need to change. But he also offers up some simple, practical advice to help us navigate the negative and make the most of the triggers that will help us to sustain positive change.

Lots of interesting ideas around changing your behaviour, with a focus on interpersonal behaviour. There's no pretence that it's easy but plenty of repeatable tips and motivators. A touch long but never boring.

I loved how engaging the narrator is, you can tell he has been successful at coaching through his voice alone.

Simple techniques and thought provoking theories on triggers and how to maintain new behaviour.

really enjoyed this book. well narrated and presented.
I was recommended this book during business coaching and found it to be hugely supportive as part of the process. It is full of useful hints and advice which can be realistically implemented.
The only thing which has taken the shine off a bit is I have since started listening his earlier book 'what got you here, won't get you there' and I have found there is quite some overlap. So just a warning I don't think you need both books and to my mind this is the better book
I am sure this book is a keeper which can be revisited time and time again

stand out book in an overcrowded self help arena

So many great points to reflect on. Everyone can take something away from this book that will improve their life. The best thing is that they are all straightforward actions but have massive returns.

This book has substance
