Projects stall at 80%. The same two people carry every initiative. Meetings feel productive but nothing changes. 
Some team members burn out while others disengage.

Most leaders call this a communication problem. Or a motivation problem.

It’s usually neither. It’s an energy problem.

What is Working Genius?

What is Working Genius?

Created by Patrick Lencioni, the Six Types of Working Genius is the simplest and most actionable team effectiveness tool available today.

The core insight: every piece of work requires six types of activity. Every person has two that energize them, two that are neutral, and two that drain them.

When teams understand this, three things happen:

  1. Guilt dissolves  — people stop blaming themselves for struggling with work that drains them

  2. Friction decreases — understanding replaces judgment

  3. Gaps become visible  — you can finally see why projects stall

The guide walks you through all six types, how they work together, and what to do with the insight.
