  • Help people understand themselves and others better. By working in your area of natural strength you are more likely to be engaged and find enjoyment in what you do and be more productive.

  • Strengthsfinder is one of the world’s most researched and scientifically proven assessments to identify talent and help people understand their natural abilities. The focus is on what is right with you, and how you can take those areas identified and use them as a foundation for personal growth and optimising your talent within a team environment.

  • The strengths coaching sessions are 90 minute sessions that can be done face to face or online. People seeking to understand and utilise their top five CliftonStrengths have the opportunity to explore each strength in depth enabling them to see where and how they currently use these strengths; and how they can begin to leverage them to get the life outcomes they want.

  • Sessions vary depending whether they are for individuals, partnerships or teams. Individual coaching is required before partnership and team sessions. All sessions cover three sections - understanding what the strengths are (name it), seeing how you currently use these strengths (claim it) and discussing how to intentionally use your strengths to help you achieve an agreed goal (aim it).

  • When you are working in your area of strength, you are more engaged, effective and productive, as well as enjoying your work more. When team members are assigned tasks and jobs that they are more naturally capable in, it helps a team to achieve faster and with less friction. The culture becomes one of focusing on what’s right with people as everyone leans into their strengths to create a greater whole.

  • As an individual knowing your strengths can help:

    Identify the best work and/or career path for you to focus on

    Improve your performance at work through leveraging strengths and being more aware of blind spots

    Build stronger relationships through a better understanding of yourself & others

    Set and achieve your personal & professional goals

    Be more energised, engaged and live a more fulfilling life

    As a team it gives a common language and a greater sense of appreciation for what each team member brings

  • Investing in 1-1 coaching helps people understand their strengths more. Following this up with a team session and then sharing the team strengths visually and openly while also making it part of the teams everyday language helps create a strengths based culture

  • Absolutely! The assessment is based on the work of Donald O. Clifton, who believed that everyone is born with unique talents and strengths.

    Having your whole team go through the strengths assessment helps everyone to focus on what is “right” with them and their team. All levels of members in the organisation appreciate this positive knowledge and focus.
