  “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

  “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

  “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

  “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

  “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

  “You have NO IDEA how great that talk was. I have *never* been in a Tech Talk here where there wasn’t a room full of open lap tops. Never. Not Obama’s CIO Vivek Kundra, not the Executive Producer of House or Adam Savage from “Myth Busters.” Not even Will.i.am. Twitter is a laptop open culture and you two managed to pull off what I thought was an impossible feat! I was impressed by the level of engagement and the number of questions at the end. You two are certainly a powerhouse!”

  Janet Van Huysse, Vice President of Human Resources, Twitter, Inc.

  “Liz’s experience in helping global teams tackle tough, complex issues has put her at the top of the list for Executive Coaching resources, a super blend of human touch and real world action plans.”

  John Hall Senior Vice President, Oracle University

  “Thank you yet again for being every bit of amazing as I imagined. Your talk not only inspired our audience, but your shared wisdom was a common topic even among my coworkers. In turn, we each went home and talked to our families about these ideas.”

  Diane Ngo, Youth Programs Coordinator, Stanford University

  “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

  “Quite frankly, there is something personal about Liz that transmits her message to her clients. She is obviously a woman of intelligence, high integrity, belief, humility, solid values and – I suspect – strong faith, and it is those characteristics along with a powerful message that carries its own hallmark. I have been to quite a few seminars, but I cant remember any quite so warm and engaging as the one yesterday – with a message that is clear and obviously successful.”

  Wayne Sanderson, Operations Manager, Online Coaching, UBT Corporate Learning
