Multipliers
How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter
Great leaders multiply the intelligence of their teams.
Based on research across more than 150 leaders, Wiseman distinguishes Multipliers, who amplify the intelligence and capability of those around them, from Diminishers, who drain it. She identifies five disciplines that Multipliers practice, such as attracting talent and creating intensity that demands people's best thinking. The book shows how to lead in a way that gets more from existing teams.
Founders are tempted to be the smartest person in the room, which quietly caps what their team can do. Multipliers offers a research-backed model for leading so people contribute their full intelligence, which matters most when talent is scarce.
