MY STRENGTHS

As noted on Gallup’s home page, the Clifton StrengthsFinder identifies what we naturally do best. It provides customized results that name our unique talents. It shows us how to succeed by turning our talents into strengths.  Here are the “power and edge” of my talents, according to the StrengthsFinder:

Futuristic.
People with strong Futuristic talents love to peer over the horizon. They are fascinated by the future. They anticipate and imagine in detail what tomorrow could or should be. They usually see the future positively.

Command.
People with strong Command talents naturally take charge. They see what needs to be done and are willing to speak up. Confrontation does not frighten them; rather, they understand that it is the first step toward resolution.

Activator. 
“When can we start?” This is a recurring question for Activators. People with strong Activator talents are impatient for action. They may concede that analysis has its uses or that debate and discussion can occasionally yield some valuable insights, but deep down they know that only action is real.

Significance.
People exceptionally talented in the Significance theme want to make a big impact.   They are independent and prioritize projects based on how much influence they will have on their organization or people around them.

Focus. 
People with strong Focus talents prioritize and then take action. They set goals that serve as their compass, helping them determine priorities and make alterations when needed to get back on course.
