Why is your team frustrated, and what do you do about it?

The 6 Types of Working Genius helps your team understand how each person contributes best, so the right people do the right work, and meetings stop running on the same hidden friction.

The 6 Types of Working Genius, Certified

Does this sound familiar?

Most team friction isn’t a people problem. It’s a fit problem.

Talented people who seem checked out, drained, or in the wrong seat.

Projects that stall, or launch with energy and never get finished.

Meetings where the same tension shows up and never gets named.

A team working hard, but stepping on each other instead of complementing.

The model

Six geniuses. Three stages of work.

Every effort moves through three stages, each powered by two of the six types of genius. Knowing your team’s mix shows you exactly where work flows, and where it stalls.
