          • S5E5- The Stories We Tell Ourselves: “Working Genius”

            Every individual has a unique mix of personality, skills, and experiences. With that mix, people develop natural proclivities towards different aspects of the business operations process. Unfortunately, due to a lack of understanding in this area people often find themselves in a role that includes few or even none of the types of activities that they derive energy from doing. In today’s episode Wes, Andy, and Justin will dive into the working genius assessment tool from the author and creator of The 6 Types of Working Genius - Patrick Lencioni, to better understand how this tool can help increase your and your client’s profitability and quality of life.  

            In today’s episode we will cover:

            • The 6 types of working genius
            • How the assessment tool works
            • Why understanding the types of working genius, which employees have which type, and where they fit into the process is so important
            • Examples of how to practically implement the take away from the working genius assessment
            • Self-awareness is a trait - or 'practice' is the more accurate way to put it - that everyone can always improve at. It is part emotional intelligence, part perceptiveness, and part critical thinking. It means knowing your weaknesses, of course, but it also means knowing your strengths and what motivates you.     -Neil Blumenthal

            • S5E4- The Stories We Tell Ourselves: “The Value of Assessments and the cost of not doing them”

              To this point in the season, we have hit on the points around the importance of knowing the story you are in, the risk around living out mindless efficiency, and possessing emotional fitness. This week Andy, Wes, and Justin kick off the practical side of the discussion where we will look at how we can change the stories we tell ourselves, and gain better understanding of ourselves and those around us. Specifically, we will look at the tools or resources that Wes and his team use, and how each of those can be applied. 

              In today’s episode we will cover:

              •  What are assessment tools and how can they help?
              •  Understanding your own strengths and weaknesses 
              • Streamlining the hiring process
              • Optimizing your team’s functionality
              • Self-awareness is a trait - or maybe 'practice' is the more accurate way to put it - that everyone can always improve at. It is part emotional intelligence, part perceptiveness, part critical thinking. It means knowing your weaknesses, of course, but it also means knowing your strengths and what motivates you. -Neil Blumenthal

              • S5E3- The Stories We Tell Ourselves: “Emotional Fitness”

                Growth of any type is challenging and uncomfortable, but is usually necessary and worth it. Like going to the gym for physical exercise to train your body and better your health, it is equally important to exercise your emotional fitness to better your mental health and increase capacity. In this third part of The Stories We Tell Ourselves Andy, Wes, and Justin walk through a powerful component that impacts every part of the stories we find ourselves in, and the ability to change them.

                In today’s episode we will cover:

                • Going from “What were you thinking?” to “What are you thinking?”
                • Is your thinking keeping you from the type of business revenue that you would like to have?
                • Ways to switch your thinking from mindless efficiency to intentional awareness
                • A problem needs to be labeled as a problem to actually exist: A problem exists only when you interpret a situation as being a problem. Otherwise, there is no problem. - Thibaut Meurisse author of Master Your Emotions

                    • S5E1- The Stories We Tell Ourselves: Part 1

                      We are all living in a story formulated through a number of external factors that are then processed through internal filters. In this next season Andy Traub, Wes Young, and Justin Lakin will be discussing how the stories we tell ourselves ultimately impact everything we do and how we view the world around us. Join us as we take a look at not only how we are conditioned by the stories we tell ourselves, but also how we can help clients navigate their story through the words we use to wrap their stories in language.

                      • How do we develop stories
                      • The impact that the stories we tell ourselves have on our lives, regardless of whether they were intentionally developed or merely inherited
                      • Helping clients identify where they are in their story
                      • Language in not just a method of description, but it constructs your experiences. – Ray Dalio
                      • We don’t see the world as it is, but rather as we are conditioned to see it. - Stephen Covey
