Recommendation
People often assume that the drivers of success — competence, good communication skills, ambition, and so on — are innate; that is, you either possess them or you don’t. Physicians Adaira Landry and Resa E. Lewiss dispel this myth. They claim that anyone can acquire these abilities by learning to deconstruct every admirable habit, goal, task, and character trait into bite-sized “MicroSkills.” Though Landry and Lewiss’s advice is far from groundbreaking and will best serve entry-level workers, readers at any rung of the career ladder may find useful nuggets within its pages.
