JumpStart Event The Six Types of Working Genius
This is an in-person only event!
What Is Your Working Genius?
Work is a broad term that applies to almost every part of our lives, even beyond what we formally refer to as jobs. The majority of our waking hours involve some kind of work.
We have discovered there are six types of work. These six are required whether you’re working on launching a product, organizing a nonprofit, or planning a vacation. The Working Genius model explains the six types of work and the order of those stages. Each of us have the God-given ability to get joy and energy from two of those types of work. And because we love that kind of work, we usually gravitate toward it and are pretty good at it.
We’re meant to use these gifts, what we call our geniuses, to contribute to the world around us. We should use our geniuses with our teams, communities, and families. When we don’t use them, or can’t use them, it’s frustrating and sometimes downright tragic. To use our geniuses well, we have to know what they are.
Attend this presentation and learn more about YOUR Six Working Genius and how it can help with your leadership team and how you work together.
All attendees will receive a free copy of the book – The Six Working Genius by Patrick Lecioni AND a free assessment ($35 value)!
