SAO PAULO, April 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Marshall Goldsmith, one of the world's leading CEO coaches and recently appointed Distinguished Senior Fellow of Hult International Business School (Hult), will be a keynote speaker at Hult's first speakers event in Brazil on the 23rd of April, 2013.

The event will take place at Hult's new rotation center at Fundação Dom Cabral's campus in São Paulo, where Goldsmith will give a Master Class in "Becoming a CEO - What Got You Here Won't Get You There".

Goldsmith has significant experience of CEO coaching and has worked with over 150 Fortune 500 CEOs. He is also the million-selling author of 33 books and has been recognized as the #1 leadership thinker in the world at the Thinkers50 ceremony hosted by the Harvard Business Review.

As a professor, Goldsmith is also very involved in business teaching and says that management education plays an important role in educating leaders: "Our research has compellingly proven that leaders can achieve positive long-term change in behavior. The right management education can help them do this."

Goldsmith is particularly supportive of Hult's practical Action Learning and explains that it is one of the reasons that he was delighted to become more actively involved with the school: "I love Hult's focus on practical application and concepts that can be applied immediately in the real world of leadership."

Action Learning is a teaching concept that has students working together to solve real-life challenges and was pioneered by Arthur D. Little School of Management (today known as Hult International Business School) in the mid-1940s. Since then, it has been adopted by some of the most prestigious schools in the world, including Harvard Business School and Stanford University.
