Expanding Connections
Two words towards being a genius
by David Zinger
I had the wonderful opportunity this year to work with Dick Richards and Jodee Bock in Fargo. Dick spent a day with us helping us discover a two word key to our individual genius. You can read about his approach in his book: Is Your Genius at Work?
Let’s face it, we are all too busy at work and it is too easy to lose our focus. I am embedded in one of those very busy timeS and I have found that keeping my genius at work has helped me to make the biggest contribution, connected me with the people I manage, offered me perspective, added to my energy, and made a difference for others.
My genius is: EXPANDING CONNECTIONS.
I doodled my genius on a napkin and have included a scan of it in this article.
I encourage you to grab a napkin and get playful creating two words that sum up your genius. This would be a first step and you could refine it by working with the exercises in Dick Richard’s book.
What is your two word genius?

DAMN!!! I am reading a book “Two Weeks To A Breakthough” by Lisa Haneberg that mentions the author and book! Funny how that works out!
