Marshall Goldsmith: At 75, Sharing Wisdom On Coaching, Leadership & Living A Meaningful Life
Lead From the Heart
05/17/24 • 50 min
Marshall Goldsmith is one of the top executive coaches in the world.
He was a pioneer in the use of 360-degree feedback which involves gathering input from peers, subordinates, and supervisors to assess a manager’s impact and effectiveness. His approach to coaching emphasizes self-awareness, behavioral change and constant improvement. And he has personally coached over 200 global CEOs in various industries.
Marshall is also a New York Times bestselling author of several influential books on leadership, personal development, and behavior change including, “ What Got You Here Won’t Get You There,” “Triggers: Creating Behavior That Lasts” and “ The Earned Life: Lose Regret, Choose Fulfillment .”
During his career, he was also a professor of management practice at Dartmouth College’s Tuck School of Business.
Marshall is only the second person we’ve ever invited to be a guest on this podcast three times (Amy Edmondson is the first), and this time it’s on the occasion of his 75th birthday. This specific discussion focuses on identifying the most important wisdom he’s acquired in his life – with respect to what matters most in coaching, workplace leadership, work-life balance, spirituality – and living a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Over six years, Marshall Goldsmith has been one of our most popular guests. In this this episode we ask him to share insights he’s gained from a truly remarkable career – some of which may prove life changing for you!

Laszlo Bock On The Future Of Work, HR & Leadership
Lead From the Heart
10/04/24 • 65 min
We have the distinct honor of hosting a true visionary in human resources and organizational culture, Laszlo Bock. His name is synonymous with innovation, empathy, and transformative leadership. His journey is a testament to leading with both the mind and the heart, a philosophy that has revolutionized the workplaces he has touched.
Laszlo earned a BA from Pomona College and an MBA from the Yale School of Management. He honed his skills at General Electric and McKinsey before his tenure at Google as the Senior Vice President of People Operations, which catapulted him into the global spotlight.
At Google, he instituted a workplace culture that astonished everyone. Extravagant perks like free shuttle buses with Wi-Fi, free food, and slides between floors were just the beginning. These investments contributed to Google’s success, which saw record stock performance in its first 20 years. Under Laszlo’s leadership, Google was named the Best Company to Work for over 30 times globally and received more than 100 awards as a top employer. His innovative HR approaches emphasized data-driven decision-making, transparency, and employee well-being.
In 2010, at age 38, he was named Human Resources Executive of the Year by HR Resources Magazine. In 2015, he published his New York Times bestseller, “Work Rules! Insights From Inside Google That Will Transform How You Live And Lead.” Two years later, Laszlo left Google and co-founded Humu, a company that combines technology and human-centric leadership to deliver “nudges” to workplace managers.
Humu describes nudges as short, science-backed suggestions—bite-sized actions to support teams and improve work. For the curious, this concept was developed by University of Chicago scholars Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein.
Having recently sold Humu, Laszlo has just created a Transformative Chief Human Resources Leadership Program at the Haas Business School at UC Berkeley. His program aims to equip the next generation of HR leaders with the skills and knowledge needed to navigate modern workplaces, further cementing his legacy as a pioneer in the field.
Laszlo Bock’s career is a masterclass in leading with both the mind and the heart. His ability to blend analytical rigor with genuine care for people has set a new standard for leadership today. As we dive into our conversation, we will explore the principles that have guided his journey, the lessons he has learned, and his vision for the future of work.
Not to be missed.

David Robson: The Scientific Secrets To Rebuilding A Strong Social Network
Lead From the Heart
07/26/24 • 60 min
In the post-COVID era we now live in, warnings about our lack of social connection – largely the result of habits we developed during the pandemic, and the new normal of working remotely – have become far more frequent.
But what’s the real harm in having fewer in-person interactions with other people – especially with work colleagues? Many of us think we’re doing just fine spending time with partners, children and close friends. Is this a false alarm?
In a groundbreaking study, science writer David Robson explored the importance of social connection, and has just written the bestseller, “The Laws of Connection: The Scientific Secrets of Building a Strong Social Network.” And, Robson concluded that social connection is as crucial for our health and happiness as having a balanced diet and regular exercise. It not only reduces the risk of stroke, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s but also enhances creativity and adds years to our lifespan.
A previous podcast guest, London Business School’s Herminia Ibarra, stressed that because we human beings are “lazy and narcissistic,” we’re far less likely to further develop our social network today unless we literally run into people – experiences which sadly occur far less often today.
So, in his book, Robson explores evidence-based strategies for enhancing our social connections (he’s landed on 13 different principles many discussed in our conversation), and strongly emphasizes that the most informed workplace leaders are already investing much time and effort cultivating connection for people on their team – and not just because doing so will elevate their individual well-being, but explicitly because doing so will elevate the team’s overall performance.
Please don’t miss this conversation. David’s book has been spotlighted by the Wall Street Journal and was just named a “Next Big Idea Must Read Pick” by Adam Grant, Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Cain, and Daniel Pink.
