Business
Do you every feel something is easy and other times it seems hard. It’s because we are either aligned or in conflict with our strengths?For over 10 years I have invested in learning more about myself to be a better leader for others – my values, my beliefs, my strengths, my behaviours.There are many tools available. I use DISC Profiles (a behaviours framework) when working with leaders and their teams.Recently though I read an article by Emma Sharrock you may remember her from EP25 The Agile Project Manager.She shared a personal story from 20 years ago, what strengths got her through that particular crisis. She uses the Gallup Strengths tools and in 2017 I completed my own assessment.Our strengths are what we do with ease, excellence and energy.Today’s episode I share my top five strengths according to the Gallup Strengths indicators:Activator – can make things happen by turning thoughts into actionArranger – can organise and determines how all the pieces and resources can be arranged for maximum productivityIndividualisation – are intrigued with unique qualities of each person, figuring out how different people can work together productivelyRelator – enjoys close relationships with others and deep satisfaction in achieving goalsResponsibility – take psychological ownership of what they say they will doThank you for subscribing and being part of my podcast family.
