THE GUEST
Liz Wiseman is a researcher and executive advisor who teaches leadership to top organizations worldwide. She wrote the New York Times bestsellers Multipliers, The Multiplier Effect, and Wall Street Journal bestsellers Rookie Smarts and Impact Players.
She is the CEO of the Wiseman Group, a leadership research and development firm headquartered in Silicon Valley. Some of her recent clients include Apple, AT&T, Disney, Meta, Google, Microsoft, Nike, Salesforce, Tesla, and X. Liz has received the top achievement award for leadership from Thinkers50. She has also been consistently named one of the world’s leading 50 management thinkers in its bi-annual ranking.
That is a long list of accolades, but I discovered Liz and her work when I read Multipliers, a book that had a profound impact on me and my business, it is the single best book in the world about leadership and management, and I can not recommend it highly enough. Through experience and research, Liz makes it clear just what makes an exceptional manager AND gives clear, actionable advice on how you can learn those traits.
Liz is an expert at leadership and team building.
