What an important post/link/reference from David Maister regarding Marshall Goldsmith’s new book, What Got You Here Won’t Get You There.

My choice for worst habit on the list: not listening. I don’t just mean not listening in the typical sales context, I mean not listening in the context of receiving feedback, coaching and guidance as well.

When we’re poor listeners, it usually indicates we’re not open to suggestions, not open to alternative ways of approaching tasks, not open to new ideas or ways to improve our performance in life.

If you look at the list, not listening often results in the other bad habits. Feel free to comment here or there with your thoughts…
