Working Genius

The Working Genius framework, developed by Patrick Lencioni and the Table Group, focuses specifically on the types of work that give us energy versus the types that drain us. It's practical, actionable, and designed for the real world of work.

Christalee helps teams gain clarity on how work flows by identifying strengths across the six Working Geniuses. The result is clearer roles, healthier team dynamics, stronger execution, and environments rooted in understanding, support, and trust.
