Elizabeth Wiseman spent seventeen years at Oracle working as a VP alongside incredibly intelligent executives and observed how these executives used their capabilities in very different ways. Some leaders needed to be the smartest person in the room and drained intelligence and capability out of everyone else. These people were often idea killers and energy destroyers. Other leaders used their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capability of people around them-to help make everyone else geniuses. Fascinated by this observation, Wiseman concluded that the leaders could split into two groups: intelligence "diminishers" and intelligence "multipliers." In GENIUS MAKERS, Wiseman explains the difference between Multipliers and Diminishers with clarity and insight and lays out five key disciplines that turn smart leaders into genius makers. 1. Create Work Climate: Be "The Teacher" not "The Tyrant" 2. Set Direction: Be "The Challenger" not "The Director" 3. Manage Talent: Be "The Talent Scout" not "The Empire Builder" 4. Make Decisions: Be "The Debate Maker" not "The Decision Maker" 5. Deliver Results: Be "The Teacher" not "The Micromanager" By applying these disciplines, current and aspiring managers will learn how to think and operate like a Multiplier, and, in doing so, create genius everywhere, make employees smarter and more capable, and drive their teams to extraordinary performance.
