The AI Multiplication Doctrine
Why the best leaders multiply their people instead of replacing them
For the person who decides. Every leader now faces the same choice: cut the people AI makes faster, or make each of them ten times more capable. This book makes the case for the second, with the economics behind it. It's why every NovaSuperSyn engagement starts by asking who your best people are.
