Today, I’m featuring one of the 9 books I’m most looking forward to in 2024.

This marks the fourth author (or authors, in this case) of the nine I’ve manage to showcase so far. Who knows, maybe I’ll eventually interview all nine!

Today’s guests are the coauthors of the book MicroSkills: Small Actions, Big Impact. I believe it to be the handbook that everyone who wants to be successful in their career needs to read.

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. The doctors call these: MicroSkills.

I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Dr. Landry and Dr. Lewis and there work. For a summary, just keep scrolling.

In today’s episode, I ask Drs. Landry and Lewiss about:

• How to limit the time you spend in meetings
• The art of learning to pause before saying “yes” to new opportunities
• What leaders need to know about giving useful feedback
• And lots more!
