MicroSkills: Small Actions, Big Impact

The promise of this book is simple: if you buy this book on Friday, you will be better at your job by Monday. Do you ever find yourself: Setting goals without identifying the actual steps to get there? Treating successful characteristics as innate traits that you either “have or don’t have”? Skipping steps when explained concepts or failing to ask for help when you need it? Microskills is an easy-to-use guide to solving these issues and improving productivity and performance by focusing on the small steps that accomplish big things. Every future goal, complicated task, and healthy habit can be broken down into simple, measurable, and tiny skills that can be easily practiced and mastered by removing obstacles, overcoming assumptions, and maximizing your potential at work and in life. From Harvard-trained physicians and mentors Dr. Landry and Dr. Lewiss, this small-steps approach to success will help you learn a plethora of skills from their life-and-death decision-making experiences and give you expert career guidance to show how you can improve your life—one step at a time.
