Discover Your Strength And Execute

Or Gary Smalley’s animal personality for a simpler approach. These tests give us detail and a direct correlation for improvement. The Gallup test itself is entirely based on their own, unpublished database. Which does not enjoy 100% accuracy, nor is there a way to verify their claims. Finally I do not agree with the basic equation that talents, or innate abilities multiple the investment, or time spent in developing a strength. Not only are “talents” not a fixed variable, but it completely removes any notion of personal motivation. To have meet the goals of improving people’s strengths, Gallup needed to narrow their focus, provide in-depth feedback, and publish their evidence that the test is based upon. Without these improvements Strength’s finder 2.0 cannot meet it stated goals of improving people’s strengths in order to make them more productive and emotional engaged in their work.

This is not for lack of effort rather innate ability. Inherent talent or aptitude represents a repertoire thoughts, emotions, and behaviors with the potential of being fully actualized within daily life if one dedicates time and energy into honing these skills. This principle provides the foundation of research by Donald O. Clifton, father of strength psychology and creator of the Strength Finder Assessment. The Clifton Strength Finder is an assessment tool designed to help an individual identify, develop, and apply his or her unique strength set.

Based on the Clifton Strengths Assessment my top five strengths are strategic, deliberative, learner, maximize and individualization. As an individual, I rarely look into my weakness. I believe that when your too focused on your weakness, you forget about your strengths. Everything the book said is true, and we need to take the time to look at our strengths and make it perfect. It is true that in this world or the school system, we are taught to look at our weakness and correct it so that we can become stronger in our life. This book brings out the truth that I longed to hear for a long time. Invariably, I hear my professor tell their students that for them success in life, they must practice and look at our weakness. This book proves it wrong because for us to become successful, we must stay to our strengths’ path.

As I have mentioned above, that achiever, strategic, learner, belief, and responsibility are my top five themes as revealed by StrengthsFinder. I was astounded and amazed after reading the detail description of my personal five themes, because these are the most consistent behaviors that I display in my daily personal and professional life. I think this assessment is reliable and trustworthy, because the result provided on the bases of my responses drew an accurate picture of my strengths.

Strength is that part of your intellect or nervous system that is more effective and productive than other parts. Throughout your experience of life, your actions or reactions drive different thoughts, behavior and emotion in your brain. The requests that are processed more efficiently and rapidly are known as your strengths. Nowadays, strengths-based approaches to work and life are gaining a lot of popularity and often they are used to improve leadership and create more productive and efficient work teams.

Which Strengths Finder talents would you focus personal development activities on if you would pursue a management position or improve in your management current position?

Gallup’s (2017) StrengthsQuest assessment lists my five greatest strengths as competition, achiever, learner, input, and strategic. After reviewing the detailed descriptions of these strengths, I am confident that I can successfully apply these skills to my job as an investigator and further develop my capacity in leadership. Before taking this survey, I was certain that focus would be among my five greatest strengths, but after considering the book’s description of the achiever theme, I am convinced of the accuracy of this evaluation. Outlined below is my interpretation of these talents, their intrinsic drawbacks, and several illustrations of how they have helped me achieve success. I have also included a few examples of how I can implement

My strengths will also help me to improve over the next 4 years, and be ready for a future career. Harmony is the strength that will allow me to work with others effectively, and I will be able to apply this in the future. In the job industry, working effectively with others will help me establish good relationships with coworkers. This will help me make new friends, and also allow for more things to be done each day. Harmony will help me to also improve on my collaboration skills, and how I may apply them to the job industry. Harmony will help me to show others who I am as a person, and how I can apply it to working in groups. I have used harmony in the past to help others. I did this at Matthew 25 Ministries when I worked with others to gather supplies for people in need. I am currently using harmony to work with fellow classmates in Theater class, by working collaboratively with them on portions of acting. This will help myself and others to become good actors, and apply that towards audition time when we have to audition for plays. Harmony has been expressed especially towards academics, because of the certain amount of collaboratively that was present last semester and also this

Upon completion of the StrengthsFinder survey, I discovered that my five greatest strengths were Achiever, Discipline, Responsibility, Relator, and Competition. However, I was skeptical about the initial results until I read what each strength entails. I found most of the information given to be accurate. According to the description of those strengths, I discovered that I use them daily without realizing it.
