23: Growing on Purpose: The Working Genius with Roger Osbaldiston

In this episode, Roger Osbaldiston (35 years with Cru, now leading a church network in New Zealand) introduces Patrick Lencioni’s Working Genius — a simple, practical framework of six “geniuses” (Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanize, Enablement, Tenacity) across ideation, activation, and implementation to help teams work together better.

Listeners will learn how Working Genius explains behavior, reduces guilt and judgment, maps team strengths and gaps, and equips leaders to be self-aware of the “wake” they create. A simple next step: ask your team what work gives life and what drains it.
