Diminishers take credit for their team’s work from "summary" of Multipliers by Liz Wiseman,Greg McKeown
Diminishers have a tendency to take credit for the work of their team. They may do this intentionally to boost their own image or inadvertently due to a lack of awareness. This behavior can demotivate team members and undermine their contributions. When a Diminisher takes credit for the team's work, it diminishes the team's sense of ownership and accomplishment. Diminishers often fail to acknowledge the efforts and achievements of their team members. They may overlook or downplay the contributions of others, instead highlighting their own role in the success of a project. This can create a toxic work environment where team members feel undervalued and unappreciated. By taking credit for their team's work, Diminishers deprive their employees of the recognition and praise they deserve. This can lead to resentment and disengagement among team members, who may feel that their efforts are going unnoticed. In contrast, Multipliers are quick to acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of their team, creating a positive and empowering work environment. When Diminishers take credit for their team's work, they are effectively eroding trust and damaging relationships within the team. Team members may become disillusioned and disheartened, leading to decreased morale and productivity. In contrast, Multipliers build trust through transparency and recognition, fostering a culture of collaboration and respect.- The behavior of taking credit for the team's work is detrimental to both the team and the Diminisher themselves. It is important for leaders to recognize the contributions of their team members and give credit where credit is due. By doing so, leaders can create a more positive and high-performing team dynamic, where everyone feels valued and appreciated.
