My Strengths And Weaknesses

The external assets that are my strengths are family boundaries and positive peer influence. Family boundaries is my strength because my parents have clear rules and consequences and they know what I am doing while letting me enjoy freely. These boundaries let me know that my parents are trusting me to make the right decisions, so I should not do anything that would dissapoint them. Positive peer influence is another one of my strengths because my friends model responsible behaviour. My friends know what is wrong and what is right and when we are in eachother’s company, we like to make sure we are having fun while not doing anything that is harmful. The internal assets that are my strengths are achievement motivation and restraint. Achievement

Other strengths that I exhibit include being structured, responsible, articulate, task-oriented, determined, confident, effective planner, visionary, and possessing the ability to manage resources effectively. Being structured allows me to set parameters that we can all work within to achieve the overall company goals. Structure builds bonds and a sense of cohesiveness in the workplace. This type of unity will be necessary for the success of the organization. We can all work towards common goals if clear goals are outlined for everyone. The other strengths will all work together as well.

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.

When I took my strengths test I was not necessarily shocked with what I received, more with what I did not receive. I thought for sure that I would have received positivity because people are always telling me how positive I am. Through learning about my strengths I have come to realize that all five of my strengths together may be the cause of my positive attitude, and all five of my strengths working together constantly are what people see. My strengths are restorative, communication, input, strategic, and achiever.

As shown in Table 1, my five strengths, according to the Strengths Based Leadership Report, are restorative, includer, achiever, woo and positivity. Restorative is a strength that was defined on the report as making newcomers feel welcomed (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). This strength also included attempting to enhance my performance and efficiency (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). People with this strength also tend to gravity towards others who are honest and give constructive criticism (Rath & Conchie, 2008, p. 3). This strength manifests in my work and life through speaking with newcomers and consistently asking my

Dependable is one of the most important strengths out of all my strengths that my brother has mentioned. The reason why I think dependable is an important strength is because if you are going apply for anything the first thing that I will look in a person is if they are dependable and will successfully do their career without chaos.

I acknowledge biases and plan to improve on difficult situations. I request feedback from my friends, family on my communication. This is now a strength, and has influenced my above average Meta-Cognition score of 5.5.
