Synopsis

Imagine waking up with enthusiasm every workday. Imagine being certain that you are highly valued by your boss and coworkers. Imagine feeling secure and in control because, even if jobs are being eliminated, you’re too valuable to let go. In other words, imagine being indispensable.

Sound too good to be true? Not according to Mark Samuel, who has helped thousands of people around the world get on the path to personal achievement and fulfillment. He shows why the key to becoming indispensable is to embrace accountability rather than run from it, in everything you do at work and in your personal life.

You’ll see how Samuel’s Personal Accountability Model really worked for people such as:

· Lynn, who transformed herself from the worst teacher at her school to one of the most respected.

· Dan, an office assistant of ten years who finally figured out how to jumpstart his career.

· Mary, a supervisor who had continually been skipped over for promotion, until she finally decided to stop “playing it small.”

· Jerry, a plant manager who got stuck in a “victim loop” when his division began to underperform. Only when he stopped blaming others could he find the energy and ideas to help his plant overcome its challenges.

Becoming indispensable doesn’t require a fancy degree, a senior management title, or a huge income. It’s a mind-set available to anyone, as you’ll learn from these and other inspiring true stories. You’ll also discover Samuel’s proven strategies for letting go of victimhood, figuring out what’s really holding you back, and taking smart actions to achieve your highest goals.

Goodreads review by Blake on December 31, 2020

Read like a standard professional development book - there were a few good motivational sections (such as the chapters on forgiveness and action), but not much of anything particularly groundbreaking. The writing style and tone were well done and positive, so that was a nice bonus to bring it up to......more

Goodreads review by Rosanne on April 11, 2022

I read this book for work and tbh the only reason I finished it was because somebody paid me to read it. For a self help book reiterating all the neoliberal ‘make-your-own-happiness’ it isn’t the worst. The visualisation is nice and it brings everything together well. BUT. Every single example made......more

Goodreads review by Bruno on November 23, 2019

This book has one or two good ideas but it's just tedious and a pile of other author's approaches. It does not bring anything really new and the writing is not engaging or compelling. Just skip it and grab a good book.......more
