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.

Reviews
“As Lincoln famously put the question: How do leaders bring out ‘the better angels of our nature’? Multipliers gets closer to answering this fundamental leadership question than anything I’ve read in years.”
—Warren Bennis, Distinguished and University Professor at the University of Southern California and author of Still Surprised: A Memoir of a Life in Leadership
“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
“What does every successful CEO and CFO have in common? They are all Multipliers. Learn how they change the world through others.”
—John Doerr, General Partner, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers
“The authors succeed brilliantly in addressing a critical but unexplored phenomenon—how leaders unleash the intelligence and capability in others. This practical framework is a must-read for all those who aspire to lead in the knowledge economy.”
—C. K. Prahalad, Paul and Ruth McCracken Distinguished University Professor, the Ross School of Business, the University of Michigan
“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
“This book will speak to every CEO and CFO. Multipliers get so much from their people that they effectively double their workforce for free.”
—Jeff Henley, chairman of the board, Oracle Corporation
