In the old days, when we made physical products, setting project goals wasn’t that hard. But in today’s service - and software-driven world, “done” is less obvious. When is Amazon done? When is Google done? Or Facebook? In reality, services powered by digital systems are never done. So then how do we give teams a goal that they can work on? Mostly, we simply ask teams to build features - but features are the wrong way to go. We often build features that create no value. Instead, we need to give teams an outcome to achieve.

What is it about the top tech product companies such as Amazon, Apple, Google, Netflix, and Tesla that enables their record of consistent innovation? Most people think it's because these companies are somehow able to find and attract a level of talent that makes this innovation possible. But the real advantage these companies have is not so much who they hire, but rather how they enable their people to work together to solve hard problems and create extraordinary products.

Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives, too many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn.

Research into how we learn has opened the door for utilizing cognitive theory to facilitate better student learning. But that's easier said than done. Many books about cognitive theory introduce radical but impractical theories, failing to make the connection to the classroom. In Small Teaching, James Lang presents a strategy for improving student learning with a series of modest but powerful changes that make a big difference - many of which can be put into practice in a single class period.

Even the smartest among us can feel inept as we fail to figure out which light switch or oven burner to turn on, or whether to push, pull, or slide a door. The fault, argues this ingenious - even liberating - audiobook, lies not in ourselves, but in product design that ignores the needs of users and the principles of cognitive psychology. The Design of Everyday Things shows that good, usable design is possible. The rules are simple: make things visible, exploit natural relationships that couple function and control, and make intelligent use of constraints.

for those who are interested in a public career
unfortunately, the advice in this book is way too far from having universal applicability since the key scenario is around building a brand of your own through being on public via blogs, personal website, giving a speech at conferences etc.
while there's a mention of an attempt to do same within organizations (if you're not ok to do a wide reach), a person must be willing to pursue this kind of route if you will...
Thanks for the effort though!

Told to build our brand, these are the next steps
It seems so easy to understand because I guess, we all reflect around this topic.
The orientation found in this book is inspiring and set an order to those ideas we might be coming up to but not performing because inexperience or lack of reference. Would recommend this book also to recently graduated from college and joining to the workforce, it's a breakthrough to a new career path sequence.
It makes me think of how old civilizations honored wisdom by listening experience sharing which we are might be dismissing from our modern lives.

Excellent Advice At Any Stage Of Your Career
What I enjoyed most about this book is that the lessons from start to finish can be applied to anyone at any point in their career.
Mr. Gothelf explains in simple terms that your voice, your knowledge, your experience has value whether you're an accountant or a cake decorator or software developer. All of us have a unique worldview whether you are just starting out, whether you failed in a job or you have been an absolute success story. All of these career experiences can be leveraged (through steps recommended in the book) to make yourself forever employable because businesses are willing to pay for (and find) talented, dedicated, unique and qualified workers.
Another aspect of this book that I enjoyed is the author gives you a step by step approach to becoming an employee that will be picked by companies rather than you searching for the next gig.
If you like James Altucher, Seth Godin, Brené Brown or Taylor Pearson books then add this one to your bookshelf.

Not so much about employment strategy
I read an article from the author on HBR and purchased this book thinking it will talk about ways and strategy to enhance your capabilities as an employee and discover different ways to outshine in workplace.
The book mostly spoke about a series of topics that are in vogue for last 3-4 years in the Personal Development space - Topics like Thought leadership, publishing blogs, books, etc and marketing and monetizing them. And towards the end , literally in the last 4-5 sentences the author says these principles can also be applied while in employment.
Maybe I took the title in a literal sense but If you are one of those guys who can barely sit quite for a few moment and have read and listened to any book out there on Self Development, there is no novelty here.
Without sounding too negative, I'd like to add for those who haven't given much thought to the importance of thought leadership in your career, the author do provide a good primer on how to go about it.

Apply Lean UX thinking to your career
I’m an admirer of Jeff’s work. I’ve read his other books, heard him speak, and put Lean UX methodology into practice.
This is a neat little book, but holds no surprises if you are familiar with his philosophy.
