Grammar question- how are としては and として different?

I know they both mean “as.”

But I am confused, I know how to use として perfectly fine. However, I don’t know when I should use としては?

  1. Need context to answer something like that.

    Two general thoughts:
    Jisho.org for としては says: “as (for); for; in the capacity of”

    Otherwise, は is generally the topic marker, and sometimes functions as a contrast marker or express a bare minimum
