Synopsis

You’re smart and hardworking, and doing “everything right.” You have intelligence, education, experience, networks and maybe other advantages like assets, power and resources.

But, you’re frustrated that you’re not more successful. A whole lot more successful.

You’re seeing less intelligent and less capable people leap ahead... and you’re wondering why?.

In How Smart People Can Become More Successful, Ram V. Iyer—MIT graduate, executive, and serial entrepreneur—reveals the missing capabilities that create the gap between one’s potential and one’s achievements.

The greatest enemy of intelligence is not stupidity, but the illusion that intelligence alone is enough to succeed.
That’s the Advantage Illusion that hurts many smart people—and Smartness is the antidote.

Smartness is the ability to see things as they are, recognize what needs to be done, and take the right action. It’s the capability to achieve greater success that anyone can develop at any age.

Greater success stems from better leveraging who you are, and what you already possess—intentionally and consistently.

Based on ten years of research and data from 1,200 assessments of elite professionals, this book introduces the 21 Smartness Factors that either accelerate your success—or sabotage it.

If a growth mindset was a breakthrough in thinking, Smartness is a breakthrough in achieving.

In this book, you’ll discover:
* Why some smart people underachieve—and how to bridge the Smartness Gap.
* How to turn intelligence, experience, and other strengths into consistent, real-world success.
* Why the most successful people aren’t always the most intelligent, but ones good at leveraging their advantages with Smartness—repeatedly—using the Achievement Cycle.
* How to augment a growth mindset with the Earned Mindset for lasting performance.
* How to identify and overcome hidden disablers like perfectionism, hesitation, and overthinking that silently block progress.

With a foreword by Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, world’s #1 executive coach, and praise from alumni leaders of MIT, Harvard, Booth, Kellogg, Duke, and Ross, this book is a practical, no-BS guide to become an achiever.

You’re already smart. Now use your Smartness to succeed.
