So the theme of the week seems to be Strengths. Everywhere I have been since the first of the month people have been talking in this sort of code. No, not the DaVinci Code. They were all talking excitedly about what were their 5 top strengths as identified by StrengthFinder, a tool that the book Now, Discover Your Strengths: the revolutionary program that shows you how to develop your unique talents and strengths and those of the people you manage. http://snipurl.com/strengthsfinder

The idea is that instead of focusing on what is wrong with people and making them mediocre at best in those areas and diminishing what they do great. Focus instead on what people are great at and encourage those traits, thereby allowing for the weaker to either be outsourced or trained leveraging the use of your core strengths.

My core strengths:

• Ideation
• Maximizer
• Relator
• Individualization
• Connectedness

It means that I am well suited to be a coach, teacher, leader, entrepreneur, spiritual advisor, motivational speaker, inspirational speaker, community leader, sales person, etc.

Its a good thing that I have found work that I love. I have the best job in the world. I help people be GREAT! Through inspiration, observation, connection, engagement, and maximizing their latent talents.
