Book Gifting & Giving
What books are you gifting and giving this festive season?
What’s on your book recommendation list?
I could easily fill this feed with brilliant books by awesome authors and maybe we could turn this post into this, especially if it’s a small way to support a sole trader (rather than those big stores).
I’ve just completed listing to Liz Wiseman read to me, IMPACT PLAYERS – How to take the lead, play bigger, and multiply your impact.
Oh my, it is impactful.
This is now my recommendation (above my own book!) for leaders and team members.
It ticks two important boxes:
✅Practically implementable behaviours
✅Case studies to support approach change
Three Key Take-outs:
🗝️MAKE WORK LIGHT - we’re totally over being complex, busy and time-consuming
🗝️CONTRIBUTE MORE – don’t wait to be asked, step in and offer your time, knowledge and energy
🗝️BE MINDFUL OF WHERE THE WORK IS – don’t go too deep and miss opportunities when your attention is required
In one of my models of leadership, I focus on understanding your cautiousness, building confidence with courage, and contributing your whole self.
Liz takes this further and differentiates those that contribute and those that make an impact. Being a step ahead, agile, alert, and stepping into leadership opportunities.
If you’re wanting to lift your leadership in 2022, then you need to read/listen to IMPACT PLAYERS.
