Introducing The 6 Types of Working GeniusĀ®

What Sets Working Genius Apart

First, its simplicity. The Working Genius model distils any kind of work down to six fundamental activities. And in relatively short order, it helps people identify the type of work that makes them thrive.


Second, Working Genius is the only tool of its kind that is actually applied to work. Most personality tools help people better understand how they are wired, but fail to explain how that fits together with others in the process of work. Working Genius solves this problem. Not only do individuals gain a greater understanding of the type of work that makes them thrive, but Working Genius provides teams with a better way to think about their dynamics, projects, meetings and even recruitment. 


Working Genius is part personality assessment and part productivity tool for teams. The model can be used in a variety of ways to bring greater success and fulfillment:

  • Leadership development/coaching
  • Job alignment/adjustments
  • Team cohesion and productivity
  • Creating a common language for everyone
  • Clarity around the stages and altitude of work

The 6 Types of Working Genius Ā®

There are two fundamental ways a team can be transformed using The Six Types of Working Genius.  First, team members can increase their productivity and morale by maximising the time they spend in their areas of genius whilst minimising the time spent in their areas of frustration. Second, a team can significantly increase the likelihood of success by ensuring that they have filled all six of the geniuses required to get something done. Thankfully, these approaches are best accomplished together. The question is, “how?” Here are four practical steps to make it happen.

 

Four simple steps: 

Step 1:  Have every team member complete the assessment and review their individual reports.

Step 2:  Get together and have every team member reveal his/her areas of genius, competency and frustration.

Step 3:  Map out the team’s geniuses, review and discuss the collective results and their implications. 

Step 4:  Identify any adjustments that can be made to fill areas of genius that are lacking, and perhaps to reorganise roles and responsibilities to allow people to better utilise their areas of genius.

 

Using Working Genius, a team can identify, discuss and address individual and collective problems in only a few hours.

Certified Working Genius Facilitator

I heard Pat Lencioni present the Working Genius model at a Global Leadership Summit event in February 2021. I loved it and immediately integrated the principles into my client offer. I completed the Table Group's Working Genius Certification Training early in 2023 because the assessment took understanding to another level.

Thus, as a Certified Facilitator, qualified and equipped with a range of tools and resources to help people leverage this amazing model, I've now worked with 250+ individuals in couples, teams and organisations.

Why not get in touch to discuss how we might work together. I'd love to hear from you.
