My last book review from my 2018 Book List is Multipliers by Liz Wiseman. It’s a business/leadership book about how some leaders multiply results, while some (often unintentionally) diminish results.

My Review
You know I read all sorts of books (minus fantasy and adult fiction) and this one lands in the business/leadership genre. The other business/leadership book I read this year was Start With Why, which I really enjoyed. I can’t quite say that about this one. I tried reading it several times and just got distracted after a few pages of stories. That said, she did a great job summarizing each chapter. I hate to admit this, but after two chapters I just read each chapter’s summary.
I did enjoy the appendixes! (PS Who says that?) Specifically Appendix B with FAQs and Appendix E with Multiplier Experiments. The experiments are geared directly at certain types of diminishers. (I’m definitely guilty of being a perfectionist diminisher.) Maybe that’s why I skipped reading the chapters when they didn’t perfectly match what I wanted.
