Paid to Think by Consultant Nephrologist David Goldsmith

As a leader, every day you're asking yourself questions about how to increase productivity, accelerate growth, do more with less, balance life and work, and more.

Even if you're considered successful by most standards, you've probably wished you had more reliable means of achieving your desired outcomes without the uncertainties that leaders inevitably experience from time to time. Perhaps you've never realized that the problem isn't you and can't be solved by working longer or harder. Rather, it's the lack of a leadership toolkit that enables you to maximize the potential of your greatest asset--your mind. The reality is that your plumber and front-line staffers have had more and better tools for doing their jobs and solving their daily challenges than you do. But that's all about to change.

Paid to Think contains the ultimate leadership toolkit, proven effective for every decision maker who has ever wanted to be better at what they do. Research has identified twelve leadership activities that leaders and managers are engaged in daily, regardless of their management level, organization's size, geographic location, industry, or sector. Now, for the first time, international consultant and advisor David Goldsmith introduces a practical approach to performing those activities effectively, providing tools and instruction so you can immediately achieve the transformative results you've always wanted.

The answers to your challenges and the ingredients for creating new opportunities have been in front of you the whole time, and with Paid to Think, you'll once and for all remove the blinders that made them invisible and put your new tools to immediate use. So start listening and begin your journey to achieving more, earning more, and living more than you ever thought was possible.

"We put David's concepts, methodologies, and practices to the test in our organizationThe impact was transformational. It has changed not only the way we lead our company, but it has also planted the seeds of change in our corporate culture that will drive our future success. Our company will never be the same again."
—Thomas Woo, President, city'super Group, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Hong Kong/Macau 2011

"David Goldsmith, professor at New York University, has taught me valuable concepts and actionable tools that I have used in leading the marketing team to produce business results never before matched. Our team was tasked to double the business in five years, and we were able to do so in only three years. Working with David's business principles and workable tools increase the probability of successfully growing the business and delivering outstanding business results."
—Faye Christine Matriano, Group Product Manager, RFM Corporation

"Leaders need to think more and think better to meet the challenges they face and to grow their businesses. David Goldsmith explains how to do just that in Paid to Think. He brings structure and rigor to how leaders can think more effectively with easy to understand principles and practices. I recommend this book."
—Mark Sanborn, President, Sanborn and Associates, Inc., and Bestselling Author, The Fred Factor and You Don't Need a Title to be a Leader
