7 points of understanding about Strengths!

 What is Strengthfinder 2.0 and why is it important to find and identify our "Talents" or "Strengths".

 A few quotes from StrengthFinder 2.0 book.

 Purpose of StrengthsFinder 2.0:

"...helps you find the areas where you have the greatest potential to develop strengths."

 "Across the board, having the opportunity to develop our strengths is more important to our success than our role, our title, or even our pay." P11

 Your Themes or Talent
"Most people think they know what they are good at. They are usually wrong...And yet, a person can perform only from strength" Business Guru Peter Drucker


 "What StrengthsFinder actually measures is talent, not strength. As an aside, we named it "StrengthsFinder" instead of "TalentFinder" because the ultimate goal is to build a true strength, and talent is just one of the ingredients in this formula."


If we don't have a certain talent or strength that we feel is important and one we want, can we acquire it?

"But adding raw talent is a very different story. While it may be possible, with a considerable amount of work, to add talent where little exists, our research suggests that this may not be the best use of your time. Instead, we've discovered that the most successful people start with dominant talent-and then add skills knowledge, and practice to the mix. When they do this, the raw talent actually serves as a multiplier."


 There are "free" strengths assessment on the internet. What is value of Strengthfinder?
