Book I’m Reading
I’ve read a few things from Patrick Lencioni and generally would give his stuff 4/5 stars. In this book, he writes in a story/fable format which makes his lessons easier for some to grasp. A fable approach tends to make me impatient; I’d rather just have the lessons and his rationale.
Overall, his Six Types of Working Genius system has potential and makes sense. But, these systems are only useful to the degree they actually unlock deeper relationships with your teammates and increase effectiveness on your team. Implementing systems requires an investment of time. Often, leaders who try to move toward systems/frameworks like this encounter resistance in the form of, “How is this going to help? Just let us do our work!” I’ve run into similar barriers on the engineering team I lead while exploring other systems.
