Patrick is the author of "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" and a pioneer in leadership and organizational health.

So, when he released his new assessment tool called "The Six Types of Working Genius," I knew I had to dive in and see how it could help our community. In this conversation, we delve deep into the Working Genius framework and how it revolutionizes the way you build and manage teams. Patrick explains how understanding your team's individual strengths and weaknesses can optimize productivity, increase job satisfaction, and ultimately drive your business forward.
