Has your team lost its spark working remotely? As our modern workforce becomes increasingly reliant on remote setups, we’re also witnessing the pitfalls of reducing human interaction and its impact on organizational health.

The human touch is vital for fueling creativity and collaboration, and to champion office presence along with a better comprehension of individual strengths is our distinguished guest — Patrick Lencioni.

Patrick is one of the founders of The Table Group and a best-selling author of 13 books, including the latest, “The 6 Types of Working Genius.” His books have been translated into 30 languages, with over 8 million copies sold worldwide, and he’s one of the most in-demand speakers in America. With nearly 200,000 LinkedIn followers and three successful podcasts, Patrick is here to share his unparalleled expertise in leadership, teamwork, and organizational health.

In this episode, Patrick exposes the critical need for physical presence in the workplace, making the case that remote work, while effective in many ways, can't replace the value of human connection. He also introduces his groundbreaking “6 Types of Working Genius” framework, which helps leaders and professionals identify their innate strengths and weaknesses, leading to greater work satisfaction and productivity.

From the origins of the Working Genius assessment to how we can leverage our individual talents to prevent burnout, this episode is a must-listen for leaders seeking to optimize their workplace performance. We also touch on the role of AI in the workplace, organizational health, the importance of informal interactions, and real-life examples of the Working Genius at play.
