Young and Profiting | Patrick Lencioni: Maximize Joy in Your Career by Learning Your Working Genius @youngandprofitingpodcast | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
For two decades, Patrick Lencioni bounced between excitement and frustration at work. But it wasn’t until a colleague pointed out this imbalance that he decided to dig deeper. Driven to understand the root of his frustration, he discovered that while there are six types of work, he only truly enjoyed two. This insight led to the creation of the Working Genius model. Recognizing its universal value, Patrick and his team developed an assessment to help individuals and teams identify their natural strengths and focus on the work that energizes them. In this episode, Patrick reveals how understanding your Working Genius can transform your approach to work, prevent burnout, and boost productivity.
Patrick Lencioni is one of the founders of The Table Group and the pioneer of the organizational health movement. He is the author of 13 books, which have sold over 9 million copies and have been translated into more than 30 languages.
