Now, Discover Your Strengths is a one-of-a-kind book that, when paired with the internet-based StrengthsFinder test, will help you find out not what your weakness are, but what your strengths are. For years we were taught to “fix your weakness” in order to succeed. This book rejects that notion in place for a newer concept. Maximize your strengths. Based upon scientific research and combined with millions of different psychological profiles Donald Clifton, Ph. D. introduces 34 dominant “themes” we all carry. With thousands of different possible combinations this book will help you identify your strength DNA and will reveal how your natural strengths can be translated into your personal and career success.
YOU WILL NEVER FORGET:
- Learning how to distinguish natural talents from things you can learn
- The difference between talents, knowledge, and skills
- Learning how to identify your own talents
- Your top strongest themes
- Understanding how to manage a weakness while still improving on a strength
- Recognizing that your success doesn’t depend upon fixing your weakness but instead relies on improving your strengths
- Learning how to understand your work colleagues’ strengths in order to create a seamless and productive work environment
Now, Discover Your Strengths, is about learning to maximize your strengths, talents, and skills. At its core, it’s about highlighting the good things, giving your focus and attention to positive attributes- not about trying to fix your weaknesses. I would recommend this book to everyone. Now, Discover Your Strengths brings awareness to what our strengths are, and how to use and apply them to live our strongest life both professionally and personally. An interesting must-read book that will help you understand that improvement isn’t about “fixing yourself” or “changing yourself,” it’s about enhancing what you already have.
