In today’s leadership spark, I had the pleasure of interviewing Patrick Lencioni, Founder & President at The Table Group and Author of The Six Types of 'Working Genius'. Patrick shared his concerns about the modern workforce becoming more transactional and less passion-driven. He noted a rising cynicism among younger workers and even a decreased desire to work. However, he saw these challenges as opportunities for leaders to inspire their teams.  We also discussed the potential drawbacks of widespread remote work, especially for roles requiring creativity and innovation. Patrick shares valuable insights and advice to leaders when hiring, and highlights the need for focused, thoughtful leadership in these changing times. _____________________ Get ad-free listening, early access to new episodes, and bonus episodes with the subscription version of the show The Great Leadership with Jacob Morgan Plus.
