work smart with your genius
Find Your Genius, Fuel Your Growth
Discover the strengths that bring you energy, clarity, and results in your business and life.
At VA Growth Hub, we use the Working Genius model, created by Patrick Lencioni and The Table Group, to help entrepreneurs and virtual assistants better understand their natural gifts. This assessment and review package is designed to help you stop working against yourself and instead live in your true zone of genius.
What is the working genius?
The Working Genius Model (developed by Patrick Lencioni) is a project-based framework that identifies six key types of working energy:
Each person has a unique blend of these six types:
2 Geniuses -> your natural gifts that bring joy, energy, and passion
2 Competencies -> skills you can do, but they don't always excite you
2 Frustrations -> areas that drains your energy and stall progress
Understanding your combination of Geniuses, Competencies, and Frustrations helps you recognize why some work feels effortless while other tasks feel exhausting. More importantly, it offers clarity on how to use that insight to grow your business, collaborate effectively, and find more joy in your work.
You can learn more directly from the creators at www.workinggenius.com or explore the Working Genius Podcast for deeper insights into each type.
Why it matters for your business
When you understand where your genius lies, everything starts to feel a little lighter. You can make intentional choices that honor your natural strengths and reduce the strain of work that drains you.
Here’s how this insight can support your business:
Build aligned offers and services that play to your strengths and feel genuinely energizing.
Avoid burnout by stepping back from areas that consistently frustrate or exhaust you.
Improve collaboration with clients, partners, and team members by understanding how each person contributes best.
Rediscover joy and momentum in your projects by working in ways that feel natural and fulfilling.
How We Apply It
We’ve seen firsthand how the Working Genius model transforms the way we work. By leaning into our natural Geniuses and leaning away from energy-draining areas, we’ve clarified our processes, strengthened teamwork, and found more joy in our projects.
We’re confident it can do the same for you, helping you approach your work in a way that feels effortless and fulfilling.
