{"product_id":"linchpin-are-you-indispensable-9780307704078","title":"Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere used to be two teams in every workplace: management and labor. Now theres a third team  the linchpins. These people invent  lead (regardless of title)  connect others  make things happen  and create order out of chaos. They figure out what to do when theres no rule book. They delight and challenge their customers and peers. They love their work  pour their best selves into it  and turn each day into a kind of art.  Linchpins are the essential building blocks of great organizations. Like the small piece of hardware that keeps a wheel from falling off its axle  they may not be famous but theyre indispensable. And in todays world  they get the best jobs and the most freedom. Have you ever found a shortcut that others missed? Seen a new way to resolve a conflict? Made a connection with someone others couldnt reach? Even once? Then you have what it takes to become indispensable  by overcoming the resistance that holds people back.  As Godin writes  Every day I meet people who have so much to give but have been bullied enough or frightened enough to hold it back. Its time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. You have brilliance in you  your contribution is essential  and the art you create is precious. Only you can do it  and you must.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45789835001909,"sku":"ByrdShop_0307704076","price":29.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780307704078.jpg?v=1784700198","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/linchpin-are-you-indispensable-9780307704078","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
