MicroSkills: Small Actions, Big Impact

Summary

The promise of this book is simple: if you buy this book on Friday, you will be better at your job by Monday.

MicroSkills is built on one core, easy-to-learn principle: every big goal, complicated task, healthy habit, and, yes, even what we think of as character traits, can be broken down into small, learnable, skills that can be practiced and incorporated real-time. We call these microskills.

As award winning physicians, educators, and mentors, we hear the gamut of challenges in navigating the workplace. And when we learn a lesson, we often wish we had learned it earlier. MicroSkills is packed with the privileged information that you want delivered to you as efficiently as possible.

In MicroSkills you will learn

• How to build your career without breaking yourself

• How to manage your task list to get work done

• How to build and maintain your professional reputation

• How to become a subject matter expert

• How to grow and nurture your network

• How to become a better communicator

• and much more. 

MicroSkills is the gift we wish we had received early in our careers.
