Strengths

Your Strengths Journey

You've taken the test, read the reports and we discussed your reactions to the results.
During our workshop, we've realised we all have our experience and background that we see the world through and strengths are another lens we see the world through. StrengthsFinder now gives us a common language we can use to share them and learn about ourselves. 
Talent development offers infinite potential. It means we are constantly curious about who we are at our best. And it means we stay tuned-in to times we fail.
Where are you at on your inner journey? Has any new insights come up? 
On this page you'll find guidance to continue your strengths journey.

Here are some lines of questioning to elicit insights, specific to strengths overuse and underuse


If you feel you may be in a situation of overusing or underusing your strengths, one of the best ways moving forward is to question your experiences using your strengths.
The dynamics of strengths remains a new area of study. One model for looking at the dimensionality of strengths is to place each strength on a continuum in which too much of a strength in a particular context becomes overuse, too little is underuse, and the center area is the “strengths zone” or optimal expression (i.e., golden mean) of the strength. The golden mean of strengths refers to the expression of the right combination of strengths, to the right degree, and in the right situation. The reasons for such underuse or overuse are myriad and based on individual personality and contextual factors.

Introduction to strengths-based development ​

Strengths-based leadership grew from the field of positive psychology. While Maslow (1954) appears to have been the first to use the term, Seligman brought it to prominence. President of the American Psychological Association in the early 1990s, Seligman began to study the change in focus of psychology over the previous 50 years, discovering that over 95% of research in that time had focused on the disease model.

"Proxima" by Alice Winocour

In this movie, Sarah (Eva Green) is a French astronaut training at the European Space Agency in Cologne. She is the only woman in the arduous program. She lives alone with Stella, her seven-year-old daughter. Sarah feels committed to her job and guilty that she cannot spend more time with her child. Her love is overpowering, unsettling. When Sarah is chosen to be part of the crew of a year-long space mission called 'Proxima', it creates complexity in the motherdaughter relationship.
