New book offers practical framework for personal and professional growth drawn from decades of real-world experience.
Los Angeles, CA – Sulis International Press announces the publication of Becoming Fully Human: A Seven-Step Path to Lasting Personal & Professional Effectiveness by Skip Wilkins, a transformative guide that distills insights from the author’s extensive career in human resources and consulting into a repeatable model for enhanced decision-making and action.
Have you ever wondered how some individuals have acquired the ability—with insight and wisdom—to make more informed decisions and take unique actions that consistently produce meaningful and fulfilling outcomes? They have achieved a metamorphosis, if you will. In this insightful non-fiction work, Wilkins explores how individuals can shift from living by default to designing a life of intentional effectiveness, drawing on observations from his time leading a team overseeing 6,000 employees at a major utility and his subsequent 20 years consulting across business sectors. The book outlines a Human Effectiveness Model comprising seven interconnected components: Awareness, Collaboration, Additional Information, Readiness, Choice, More Informed Decisions, and Better Actions, each building progressively to foster sustainable growth.
What sets Becoming Fully Human apart is its emphasis on practical application, including affirmative reminders at the end of each chapter—short, personal statements designed to reinforce mindsets and accelerate internalization of the principles. Wilkins differentiates between efficiency (doing things right) and effectiveness (doing the right things), providing examples and guidelines to help readers apply the model in daily life. The framework addresses key themes such as self-awareness, the power of collaboration for exponential learning, and the importance of readiness for change, making it relevant for professionals seeking resilience, clarity, and confidence in both personal and work contexts.
This self-help book targets executives, managers, and anyone committed to personal development, offering a structured path reminiscent of classics like The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People but grounded in Wilkins’ unique blend of corporate experience and academic insights from teaching organizational leadership. By incorporating tools like affirmative reminders—rooted in neuroplasticity and positive psychology—the book empowers readers to rewire limiting beliefs, make intentional choices, and achieve fulfilling outcomes without relying on random tactics.
“Through years of observing highly effective individuals, I’ve distilled a proven process that anyone can follow to unlock their full potential and live with greater purpose,” said Skip Wilkins, President of Integrated Performance Systems.
