The monthly selection for a Manager's Book Discussion group.
Nonfiction - a practical management title. What kind of manager are you? The authors present their theory of two kinds of leaders - both are successful but one is a Multiplier, the other is a Diminisher. The Multiplier is the type of leader anyone would want to work for because they make everyone feel smarter. The other, not so much and this is despite the fact that they 'do' tend to hire only the best & brightest. Unfortunately, these Diminishers also tend to suck the energy & enthusiasm out of their people.
Numerous examples, taken from real-life interviews, illustrate both kinds of managers and tables for each example are provided which clarify the differences in the different manager's style. Each chapter closes with a chart which summarizes the points made and explains what is needed to become a Multiplier.
