You know you have more to offer. The question is: Does everyone else see it?
Jessica wanted the promotion. Then she got it.
At 26, she was suddenly managing five former peers. She worked hard, solved problems, kept the team together, and earned everyone's respect.
Jessica was doing a good job. So why wasn't that good enough? That uncomfortable question sits at the heart of Super Players.
Most employees are doing what they believe is expected of them. Yet they still get overlooked, stalled, or surprised when someone else receives the bigger opportunity.
The problem is not always effort. It is the gap between doing your job well and creating the kind of value leaders can clearly see, trust, and reward.
From Verne Harnish, author of the million-plus-copy-selling Scaling Up, and Inc. columnist and storyteller Kevin Daum, Super Players reveals four high-impact attributes that help people at every career stage become more valuable to their companies?and more in control of what happens next.
Through funny, familiar, and occasionally painful workplace stories, you will meet capable people who appear to be doing everything right. Then you will see what they missed, how a Super Player would respond differently, and what you can do immediately.
- No hustle worship.
- No office-politics tricks.
- No vague advice to ?follow your passion.?
Just a practical guide to creating more value by mastering these four attributes:
- Will
- Values
- Results
- Skills
For employees, it is a path to greater trust, opportunity, influence, and earning potential.
Start with one story. By Monday, you will know what to do differently.
And somewhere along the way, you may recognize Jessica... Your boss... Or yourself...
For leaders, it is a way to show people what initiative, ownership, and real contribution actually look like.
