Identify Your Strengths 2

Our last post looked at how to identify your character strengths using the VIA-IS on-line tool.

There is another on-line inventory called the Gallup Strengths Finder tool.

In order to access it, you need to buy Tom Rath's book first; with the book you get a password which enables you to access the tool on-line. As with the VIA-IS questionnaire, you get a report of your Top 5 Strengths. There is guidance in the book as to how to interpret the results and apply them.

And as we mentioned before, please use the results as a starting point for a discussion about your signature strengths, and how you might apply them day-to-day. You can also use them as the basis for creating an alternative Personal Development Plan, one which builds on the aptitudes you already have and which you enjoy using.

As always, we'd love to hear how you get on.
