My brilliant cousin Resa Lewiss is a renowned emergency medicine physician, professor, author, podcast host, and co-author of "MicroSkills: Small Actions, Big Impact" which offers a refreshingly unconventional approach to professional development. Unlike traditional self-help books that focus on broad concepts or sweeping changes, Lewiss breaks down success into small, actionable steps that can be immediately implemented. This innovative method, aptly named "MicroSkills," challenges the notion that significant improvements require monumental efforts. Instead, it posits that even the most complex goals and character traits can be deconstructed into learnable, bite-sized skills that can be practiced in real-time.
The book's creative structure sets it apart from typical career guides. Each chapter follows a consistent format, beginning with personal anecdotes that humanize the challenges, then normalizing the difficulty of change before diving into concrete "how-to" critical actions.This unique approach not only makes the content more relatable but also provides a practical framework for readers to apply the MicroSkills to their own lives. By covering a wide range of topics from self-care to navigating workplace conflicts, Lewiss offers a comprehensive toolkit that's accessible to professionals at any level. The book's premise of "Buy this book on Friday. Be better at your job on Monday" exemplifies its commitment to immediate, tangible results, making it a standout in the crowded field of professional development literature.
