If you haven't had your "strengths" assessed, you should really consider the Strengthsfinders test. It evaluates you for your Top 5 strengths out of a possible 34 themes. Very fascinating!! To do so, you have to purchase the book. Inside is a code to access the online test. Included in the book are further descriptions of the strengths and how a person can use them (and in cooperation with other people's strengths) to maximize individual and/or corporate potential.
Here are mine!
Belief - People strong in the Belief theme have certain core values that are unchanging. Out of these values emerges a defined purpose for their life.
Connectedness - People strong in the Connectedness theme have faith in the links between all things. They believe there are few coincidences and that almost every event has a reason.
Empathy - People strong in the Empathy theme can sense the feelings of other people by imagining themselves in others' lives or others' situations.
Relator - People who are strong in the Relator theme enjoy close relationships with others. They find deep satisfaction in working hard with friends to achieve a goal.
Strategic - People strong in the Strategic theme create alternative ways to proceed. Faced with any given scenario, they can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.
The other one that comes back to my Top 5 on occasion (I've taken it a few times now) is the following:
Harmony - People strong in the Harmony theme look for consensus. They don't enjoy conflict; rather, they seek areas of agreement.
