Understand How People Do Their Best Work
The Working Genius assessment reveals how individuals naturally contribute to work and where they experience energy or frustration. By understanding these patterns, teams gain clarity on how work flows, where bottlenecks form, and how to better align people with the
work they do every day.
What Working Genius Reveals
Developed by The Table Group, Working Genius identifies six distinct types of work that are present in every team. Rather than focusing on personality or behavior, it highlights how people create value—from generating ideas to executing and completing work.
At both the individual and team level, Working Genius helps explain why certain tasks feel natural and energizing while others feel draining. These insights reduce misunderstanding, improve collaboration, and help teams design workflows that play to people’s strengths—leading to higher engagement and better results.
