Working Genius Workshop

University of Souther Indiana, Rice Library 8600 University Boulevard, Evansville, IN, United States

Working Genius Workshop Working Genius is a groundbreaking productivity model designed to help individuals identify their natural talents and thrive in their professional and personal lives. By understanding which types of work energize and fulfill them and which lead to frustration and disengagement, people can enhance their self-awareness, boost productivity, and achieve greater success. This model defines six core activities essential to any kind of work and offers a clear framework for how work gets accomplished. Many individuals feel unrecognized, underutilized, or stuck in roles that don’t align with their strengths, while teams often struggle with inefficiency and miscommunication. Working Genius transforms the way people approach work by helping them leverage their natural gifts, creating more engaged, effective, and successful teams. The brief 15-minute Working Genius assessment provides individuals (and teams) with valuable insights into their natural strengths and workplace frustration areas. Applying the team information in workshop facilitation brings these insights to life, fostering team cohesion, improving communication, and equipping members with strategies to maximize productivity. With a shared understanding of how work gets done best, teams can reduce frustration, enhance collaboration, and achieve greater success together.
