This book has shown me so many ways I can improve how I participate on a team and the impact I can have for that team, and for my organization. The hard part now will be trying not to implement all of the learnings at once, but to implement them one at a time until I “master” it, then move on to the next impact player skill. Liz Wiseman is an amazing author who does her homework to understand how leaders and teams work and how to extract the best skills and competencies in order to improve the performance of average leaders and contributors. This is definitely a book worth reading for anyone who works as a contributor on a team, is a coach, or a leader trying to mentor and coach the individual contributors you lead. Highly recommend this book!

While sharing the mindsets and tactical steps to take to become an Impact Player!
One of my favorite parts is she shares what is causing smart, capable people from contributing to their full potential.

You don't need a title to be a leader!This book is a great resource for anyone who wants to make a bigger impact at work. It's filled with ideas and tools for increasing your contribution and leadership from wherever you sit in your organization. I especially liked The Playbook (starting on page 59 and see page 60 diagram in the pic) with the ideas for identifying What's Important Now for your organization and your leader and then combining this with your own capabilities to find opportunities to make important contributions - everyone W.I.N.s :)

This book reveals the secret of how to become an impact player in your organization as most people struggle and get stuck going through the motions.We mostly like to go to organizations where we get applause or appreciation from people or leaders, but at the same time we forget that we lose touch with reality and avoid situations that expose our weaknesses but those who have courage and face the reality become impact player. The author has neatly shared all the recipes in a very easy to understand language.
In the book Author describes the types of challenges that are increasingly being faced in modern organisations, unclear problems, unclear roles, unclear constraints, rising targets and incredible demands and how we can overcome these difficulties to become impact players.
🍁𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿'𝘀 𝗠𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲🍁
Based on a study of 170 top professionals, Wiseman identifies the mindsets that prevent otherwise smart, capable people from living up to their full potential, and the five practices that differentiate Impact Players:
While others do their job, Impact Players figure out the real job to be done.
• While others wait for direction, Impact Players step up and lead.
Players are learning and adapting to change.
• While others add to the load, Impact Players make heavy demands feel lighter.
Wiseman makes clear that these practices-and the right mindset-can help any employee contribute their best and shows leaders how they can raise the level of play for everyone on the team.
🍁𝗠𝘆 𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄🍁
It's a must read for today's leaders, managers, entrepreneurs and it's also a guide for parents, teachers and workplace advisers.
