The question is: do you have the opportunity to do what you do best every day? Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped.
From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our
shortcomings than to developing our strengths.
To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in 2001 which ignited a global conversation and helped millions to discover their top five talents.
In its latest national bestseller, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more (see below for details). While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades.
Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this new book and accompanying website will change the way you look at yourself--and the world around you--forever.

Review:
In StrengthsFinder 2.0, Tom Rath of Gallup seeks to show how we can identify our strengths and capitalize on them instead of focusing too much on our weaknesses. Using highly researched assessments, the book provides hundreds of techniques of that we can use to maximize our strengths and capabilities.
This book is based on the work of Don Clifton who is widely considered the Father of Strengths Psychology. The Gallup scientists have worked with thousands of people to determine the importance of discovering and nurturing our natural gifts and talents. Their research shows that the most successful people start with a dominant talent and then add skills, knowledge and consistent practice so they can fully build a powerful and rewarding "strength."
An outstanding book that offers GREAT insight into an individual's personality. New books come with the must-have code in the back. The code allows you to access the 120 question online self-assessment. The results of the "quiz" will WOW you! They are extremely accurate. It pin-points your top 5 strengths. There are 32 different strengths and it identifies your most prominent 5. The book describes each strength, lists ways to work with someone with that strength, and tips for how to use that strength.
This book is necessary to take and understand the StrengthsFinders 2.0 assessment test. The key to the online testing is included in the back of the book; every test must have a key to be processed which means a book has to be purchased for everyone in your family who wants to take the test.
Tom Rath's The StrenghtsFinder book and accompanying assessment make for an excellent (and efficient) way to gain a greater understanding of how you can stand out while feeling pride in your accomplishments. The StrenghtsFinder assessment is incredibly simple and quick. After receiving your immediate online results, this book is the perfect resource to find out more about each of your identified strengths.
