Marshall Goldsmith makes a point to the crowd during the introduction for the first activity involving choosing one behavior to modify.
University Park, Pa. — Marshall Goldsmith's message is simple, "what got you here won’t get you there."
This call for innovation and creative thinking was his theme as he spoke in front of nearly 300 Finance and Business employees Thursday morning at the organization’s annual spring retreat.
Goldsmith is one of the country's leading businessmen and business authors. His book, "What Got You Here Won’t Get You There" is a New York Times best seller and was named the Wall Street Journal's top business book. At Thursday's retreat, he spoke to F&B directors, managers and executives about the challenges of being a leader and the importance of accountability in the workplace.
The annual event was held in the Penn State Conference Center Hotel and also featured talks from Gary Schultz, senior vice president for Finance and Business/treasurer, Al Horvath, vice president for Finance and Business and Graham Spanier, Penn State University president.
