A book: Multipliers: How the best leaders make everyone smarter. I want to check it out.

• Multipliers attract and unlock talent, and diminishers build empires
• Multipliers inquire into mistakes, while diminishers assign blame
• Multipliers set direction by challenging assumptions, and diminishers act as know-it-alls
• Multipliers spark debate, while diminishers tell people what to do
• Multipliers invest for the long term, and diminishers micromanage
