Strengths-Based Leadership

Leadership.  It is such a huge topic.  Where do you even begin?  Is the self-help section at the local bookstore totally overwhelming to you?

Luckily, Gallup scientists have researched the topic of leadership for decades, asking people "why they followed the most important leader in their life."  Using Gallup’s discoveries, authors Tom Rath and Barry Conchie identify the following three keys to being an effective leader in Strengths-Based Leadership.

 - The most effective leaders are always investing in strengths.
 - The most effective leaders surround themselves with the right people and then
   maximize their team.
- The most effective leaders understand their followers’ needs.

To help people uncover their talents, Gallup first introduced its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation. Strengthsfinder, explores 34 strengths that can be placed in four domains of leadership - executing, influencing, relationship building, strategic thinking.

Interesting right?! With the assessment, you will receive a personalized strengths-based leadership guide. Just do it!
