Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter
Business leaders can be Multipliers, who make people better or Diminishers, those who think mostly about themselves and in return, get less from the people around them. What’s stunning about this is not that multipliers are more effective, but the reality of how much more effective they are. “Innovation” and “Competitive Advantage” are hot topics, yet here is a strategy to double the output without doubling the cost.

“I’ve been talking about your presentation non-stop to whoever will listen!”
Bobbi Moss, Senior Vice President, General Manager, Govig & Associates
“Liz’s experience, perspective, and energy was the catalyst for our strategic planning process. She drew out each person’s perspective and channeled the team’s effort to create a coherent, compelling mission statement and identity for our organization. We couldn’t have done it without her!”
Peter Fortenbaugh Executive Director, Boys & Girls Club
“Your team has added phenomenal contribution to building a strong collaborative culture in our buiness organization. Thank you for showing us the right way for which we struggled for more than a decade to find on our own.”
Anil V. Parab General Manager, Larsen & Toubro
“CCI has been fortunate to work with Liz in the design and delivery of many strategic initiatives. Her subtle but deliberate method of building leadership development into the work of solving complex business challenges has stimulated a new level of thinking and understanding among our board and staff team. Through our work with her we have come to understand that leadership excellence is not achieved through the passive participation in traditional learning activities, but instead it is the critical by-product of doing meaningful and difficult work. “And even better – doing hard work has never been so much fun! It is a treat to enhance our abilities and strengthen our organization in partnership with someone we respect and enjoy so much.”
Shannon Carter CEO, CCI
“The evaluations of our conference earlier in the month have been coming in to the VisionServe office, and Roxann Mayros, our CEO, tells me that every aspect of the conference exceeded attendee’s expectations. It appears to be the best conference ever, in fact. Rob did a terrific job, and everyone was so caught up in the concept of Multiplier/Diminisher – they’ll be thinking about that for quite a while.”
Pam Brandin, Executive Director, Vista Center for the Blind & Visually Impaired
“In over thirty years of evaluating executives it was clear to me that some achieved much more than others, but it wasn’t always clear why. Wiseman and McKeown present a fresh and compelling analysis of how Multipliers create value while others destroy it.”
Tom Friel, former CEO and Chairman of the Board, Heidrick & Struggles
“In a large organization, it’s natural to worry about the ‘energy vampires’ – those who are able to drain the energy and momentum from a team. When I came across Liz Wiseman’s book, Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, I was fascinated by the research about multipliers and diminshers and the impact a leader can have on a team’s creativity, ideas, and even light bulb moments. It was eye-opening for me, and I’ve since had Liz present her research to members of my Marketing management team. I’d love to have her back in the future.”
Carine Clark, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Symantec
“Liz Wiseman did an outstanding job for Yale New Haven Health System on the two occasions that she worked with our leaders. She was able to engage key leaders and physicians in a very informative and highly interactive manner. Liz has an ability to take complicated ideas and concepts, and make them simple enough to effectively reach and teach audiences on multiple levels. I can’t say enough about her research and the passion she brings to her work. She is genuine, professional and effective.”
Jay Morris, Vice President, Education at Yale New Haven Health System
“Multipliers challenges us to imagine a dramatically more productive future for our organizations—one that requires letting go of some of the very behaviors that helped get us to the top.”
Tim Brown, CEO, IDEO
“I couldn’t put down Multipliers on the plane ride home. I highly recommend it for all especially those aspiring to or actually occupying significant leadership positions. A word of caution, this book may be unsettling if you are honest with yourself. Read it with an open mind and allow it to help you reflect on what kind of leader you have been. Should you find like many of us, that you are an accidental Diminisher, follow its rather simple and insightful steps toward becoming a Multiplier and unleashing the genius in others. Many of its tenants are universally applicable even to our highly hierarchical, leader-centric organization.”
Patrick Count, Commander, U.S. Navy
