Working Genius Workshops
Unlock Your Team's Natural Talents and Boost Collaboration, Productivity, and Innovation
Every team has untapped potential.
The Working Genius assessment reveals the natural talents each person brings to the table and transforms how your team collaborates, communicates, and creates.
As a certified Working Genius facilitator and organizational health coach, I help mission-driven organizations identify and leverage these talents to build healthier teams and greater impact.
What is the Working Genius?
Created by Patrick Lencioni, The Working Genius is a revolutionary assessment that identifies the six types of work necessary for any project.
The Six Types of Working Genius are:
→ Wonder: Pondering possibilities and asking "what if?"
→ Invention: Creating innovative solutions and ideas
→ Discernment: Intuitively evaluating and refining concepts
→ Galvanizing: Mobilizing people to take action
→ Enablement: Providing flexible support where needed
→ Tenacity: Driving projects to completion with excellence
Understanding Your Unique Genius Profile
Each person interacts with these six types of work in different ways.
→ Two Zones of Genius: Areas where you naturally thrive and feel energized by the work.
→ Two Zones of Competency: Areas where you can perform, but don't find joy.
→ Two Zones of Frustration: Work that drains you and decreases your effectiveness.
Working in your zones of genius brings energy and fulfillment. When teams understand where each individual team member falls, they can assign responsibilities that align with natural talents rather than arbitrary roles.
Transform Your Team with a Working Genius Workshop
Revealing each person's natural gifts (and frustrations!) can revolutionize how your team approaches projects.
Working Genius workshops deliver immediate, practical benefits for teams and individuals.
→ Reduce Friction: Understand why certain tasks energize or drain team members.
→ Improve Meetings: Structure discussions to engage everyone's natural talents.
→ Build a Stronger Team: Assign roles based on genius rather than job titles.
→ Accelerate Projects: Ensure all six geniuses are represented in important work.
→ Improve Job Satisfaction: Help people work more often in their areas of genius and competence.
