Drive Forward With Your Full Potential
At Ajarn Academy, we believe that when you love your work, it shows in everything you do. Our passion is helping organizations tap into the 'genius' within each employee, allowing them to achieve better results in less time. We offer personalized services like individual working genius assessments and team workshops to help businesses improve their organizational health, productivity, and ultimately, their bottom line.
Only 32% of employees are actively engaged at work (according to Gallup), and employee burnout is at an all-time high.
About Ajarn Mark
I'm Ajarn Mark Caldwell and I teach individuals and teams how to love their work more while maintaining high levels of productivity.
Blessed with the Working Geniuses of Discernment and Tenacity, I love to discuss big ideas, evaluate complex scenarios, and identify clear paths forward. I maintain high standards while driving projects to completion.
Certified by The Table Group as a Working Genius Facilitator, I love to help others discover their own Working Geniuses and understand the power that comes from applying the right genius to the type of work at hand. And sometimes that means learning how to tame our frustrations so that we may accomplish the big picture goals without encountering burnout.
Let's bring you and your team to the top of the podium with the Ajarn Academy approach.

The 6 Types of Tasks
Everything that we do...every project, plan and goal, whether at your job or in your personal life...involves six different types of tasks or activities (see graphic above). Patrick Lencioni and The Table Group have identified that each of these types of activities calls on a different skill, talent, or as they call it Working Genius. Some of these types of activities come naturally to you, and tend to give you joy and energy when you do them. Because they are enjoyable and energizing, you are naturally drawn to them.
Other types of activities, while you may be skilled at them, they tend to drain your energy and frustrate you if you have to spend too much time doing them. And then there are some types of activities that are neither really energizing and enjoyable, nor draining and frustrating. They're in the middle.
Oftentimes, we are not consciously aware of which ones are energizing and which are draining until after the fact. But what if there was a way to know beforehand? What if you could strategically align your time and action to spend more time in the areas that energize you and less time in areas that drain you?
Introducing the Six Types of Working Genius Assessment and Briefing
When you understand your Working Genius you will be able to structure your projects and work activities to spend more time in the task areas that you love and that energize you. And for the other areas, we will develop strategies for accomplishing what needs to be done without it sapping all of your energy.
