Welcome to the first ever episode of At the Table with Patrick Linconey. I'm sitting here in the conference

room of the Table Group in Lafayette, California. I'm Pat Linconey and I'm joined by my partner,

the producer and colleague Cody

Cody. Doing great Pat excited to get this podcast going. Me too this is

going to be fun. So tell us what our first topic is Cody. Today we're going to

talk about why being smart is

overrated which we really believe it is totally but before we jump in I wanted to

get a little bit context for our for our listener so a lot of people know you from books like the advantage of the five disfunctions of a team,

but not a lot of people know about the table group and the work that we do.

So tell us a little bit about that.

We at the table group are committed to helping leaders make their organizations more effective and healthy,

and in doing so helping employees find more fulfillment in their work.

But what we really do is what we're going to talk about today,

and that's help organizations get healthier,

make teams work better, make sure that organizations are effective

in good places to be.

Great.

And that's why this is the perfect topic for us to start on,

because this is sort of the foundation for what we do.

So let's dive into the content.

So the topic being being smart is overrated.

Tell me what is the difference.
