Impact Players
How to Take the Lead, Play Bigger, and Multiply Your Impact
Book • 2021
In 'Impact Players', Liz Wiseman identifies the key differences between high-impact contributors and typical contributors.
Based on a study of 170 top contributors, Wiseman explains how small differences in thinking and acting can make a significant impact.
She outlines five practices that distinguish Impact Players: figuring out the real job to be done, stepping up to lead, moving things across the finish line, adapting to change, and making heavy demands feel lighter.
The book provides insights and practical tools to help anyone contribute at their highest level and shows leaders how to raise the performance of their teams.
