Landry and Lewiss will leave you feeling inspired and motivated to chart a better path forward for yourself and your people regardless of your occupation or profession.

Brad Johnson, PhD, coauthors of Good Guys: How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace "I was blown away by MicroSkills! The book is prescient and brilliant; the practical advice immediately applicable. Where so many books about success and habits are written by men, I most appreciate how the authors centered the experiences of women, people of color and other underestimated professionals, so each page is inclusive and relevant to all. By sharing personal stories and how the authors applied MicroSkills to succeed in medicine, theyve created a success manifesto that applies to all facets of life, from personal to professional. Brava!" --Ruchika Tulshyan, author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work "A remarkably practical book, MicroSkills offers dozens of simple practices that will help anyone be more effective at work. Its a how-to-guide that spans the realms from verbal communication and compelling writing to relationship building, logistics simplification, and even self-care. It is a rare book that provides this level of concrete actionable advice."--Amy C. Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership, Harvard Business School, author of Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well "Adaira Landry and Resa Lewiss have put together an incredibly comprehensive book--thats also fun to read! They cover the most critical skills needed to navigate the workplace, providing clear and practical steps along the way. Readers will no doubt feel empowered with Landry and Lewiss as their able guides."--Amy Gallo, author of Getting Along: How to Work with Anyone (Even Difficult People) and cohost of HBRs Women at Work podcast "MicroSkills is a must-read for anyone entering the workplace, especially if you feel like an outsider.
