According to the Gallup Organization's Strengthsfinder® Profile, my strengths (which
come as no shock to anyone who knows me) are:
- Strategic: People strong in the Strategic theme sort through the clutter and
find the best route. When faced with any given scenario, they can quickly spot
the relevant patterns and issues—and then they move forward.
- Maximizer: People strong in the Maximizer theme focus on strengths as a way
to stimulate personal and group excellence. They seek to transform something
strong into something superb. Those with the Maximizer strength live to find
and work with other excellent people.
- Intellection: Those who exhibit the Intellection theme love to think and
engage in mental activity. The theme of Intellection does not dictate what the
person thinks about; it simply describes that he/she likes to think. Wherever
the introspection leads people with the Intellection theme, this mental hum is
one of the constants of their lives.
- Significance: People strong in the Significance theme want to be very impor-
tant in the eyes of others. They are independent and want to be recognized. In
addition to wanting to be admired as credible, professional, and successful, they
want to associate with others who are credible, professional, and successful.
- Achiever: People strong in the Achiever theme have a great deal of stamina
and work hard because of the internal fire that drives them to accomplish.
They take great satisfaction from being busy, productive, and moving forward
on new tasks and challenges.
