DO YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO WHAT YOU DO BEST EVERY DAY?

Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.

To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions to discover their top five talents.

In its latest national bestseller, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more (see below for details). While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades.

Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this new book and accompanying website will change the way you look at yourself -- and the world around you -- forever.

Summary: Extremely Insightful
Comment: The StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment helped me understand myself better. I was so impressed with how this knowledge empowered me I bought the book for all of my family members so they could understand their strengths. The knowledge of our strengths helped our family communicate more effectively and gave guidance to each of us to perform our daily responsibilities more effectively. Knowledge is power, this kind of knowledge about yourself can be used in your personal life as well as your profession. Excellent read!!

Summary: Additional Info
Comment: This is a wonderful addition to the original text. After spending 100's of hours working with the Gallup process and teaching Now Discover Your Strengths in a graduate level course, this book really brings it home for the reader. The assessments outline in a more detailed way how to use the Talents and Strengths and the additional information about who we really are as individuals is great.
