Excellent book - The on-line questionnaire and skills assessment helped my employees pinpoint their top 5 skills.
This is one of the most helpful books I've ever read, and I've read a lot of books in 30 years of teaching college and conducting business training programs. The power of this book is unique since the book cover contains a code that allows the read to take a 30-minute STRENGTHS ASSESSMENT TEST that provides one with her/his top 5 strengths out of the 34 discovered by the Gallup Organization's study of 2 million people. The combination of the test and the book's explanation of the 34 strengths allows an individual and family members to more effective choose career and hobby paths that lead to inner satisfaction and high productivity. If you want to "follow your bliss" and avoid going down numerous wrong trails, get this book ASAP. If you want you and your employees to be more productive and satified, get this book today.

The idea of the book is to help you find your talents, build your strengths, which will in turn, improve your performance. Building your strengths is indeed somthing that is often overlooked, as most of the time we seek to improve our weaknesses- that's a point well taken- and a good reason to buy the book. However two more things also need to be mentioned. First, why can't we work on building both our strengths AND our weaknesses? In other words, why do we have to necessarily pick just one? Secondly, discovering your talents and doing what you're good at may not necessarily improve your performance or your motivation. Why? Because there are lots of things we're good at, but still hate to do nonetheless. For insance I'm really good at cleaning houses and debating, but I don't like to really do either one. People only get motivated to something when they know how to do a job AND there's something meaningful in it for them- that's how you motivate people (check out The Sixty-Second Motivator for an elaboration on this). Just some food for thought.
I like it. It let me think in different ways. I would buy it again.
I love the site and have used it before with great ease and promptness. The only thing that I wish were different was the limit on the quantity of one item. I understand why of course because peopel would buy and then resell for profit but I had to order 25 books for work and had to do it in 3 orders. Besides that all was great!
If you want to know what your inherent strengths are, this is the book for you. You'll take a quiz online (but you need to purchase the book to get the code) and be told your five key strengths. The authors beleive everyone should be developing their strengths instead of trying to compensate for their weaknesses. They help guide you to determine what strengths you have and how you can apply them to a career choice that is good for you.
