The Ideal Candidate

This is a service for Executive Leaders and their teams who recognize they are not functioning at the potential they are capable of.

This is a fabulous assessment tool that awakens teams to their existing gaps and empowers them to re-examine their roles and responsibilities; recruit according to geniuses, and restructure in ways that energize team spirit.

There is a total of six Working Geniuses. All are required for getting work done successfully. We all have two Working Geniuses, two Working Competencies, and two Working Frustrations.

Working Genius

Indicates your natural ability; what brings you joy and fulfillment. It consistently gives you energy.

Working Competency

Indicates what you can do well but are not fulfilled by. Over time this drains your energy.

Working Frustration

Indicates what you dislike doing and find draining, even if you’ve learned to be capable at it.

Working with a Certified Facilitator can transform work for people by:

  • Understanding why they have been successful or unsuccessful in past endeavors

  • Clarifying which types of work give joy and energy and which types are draining and difficult

  • Avoiding making unfair and inaccurate judgments about one another’s motivation

  • Alleviating guilt about struggles people have with certain types of work

  • Improving dialogue and directives in team meetings

  • Making quick and concrete adjustments to roles and responsibilities to better tap into one another’s strengths, and avoid one another’s weaknesses

  • Getting more done in less time

  1. The best leaders are self-aware leaders.
