In this episode of Paradigm Shifting Books, hosts Stephen and Britain Covey are joined by leadership expert Liz Wiseman, author of ‘Multipliers’. Together, they dive into the powerful principles that distinguish "multipliers", leaders who amplify the intelligence and abilities of others, from "diminishers," who, despite good intentions, unknowingly hold people back. Liz shares her research and experiences, revealing how leadership can either bring out brilliance or unintentionally stifle growth. This conversation highlights how these concepts can apply not only in the workplace but also in teams, families, and everyday life.Stephen and Britain reflect on how these insights have shaped their own approaches to leadership. They discuss the importance of seeing potential in others and creating environments where people feel empowered to contribute their best. Stephen points out that it's not about being the smartest leader, but about finding ways to help others shine, while Britain shares how creating space for both safety and challenge is key to unlocking peak performance. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to foster growth, collaboration, and leadership in all areas of life.What We Discuss<ul><li>[00:00] Introduction</li><li>[01:23] The Power of Contributorship</li><li>[04:10] Multipliers vs. Diminishers</li><li>[13:35] Safety and Stretch: The Core of Leadership</li><li>[20:10] The Importance of Viewing Genius in Others</li><li>[22:36] Contribution over Competition</li></ul>Notable Quotes<ul><li>[06:34] "Sometimes really, really smart people don't make the best managers." – Liz Wiseman</li><li>[24:59] "People want to come to work every day wanting to contribute everything that they have." – Liz Wiseman</li><li>[15:37] "What these leaders do is they create an environment where people feel safe, but then they create stretch." – Liz Wiseman</li><li>[24:20] "Multipliers believe people are smart, and there is a way they are smart.
