Strengths Based Coaching

Why this approach? “…evidence that talent identification and strengths development for college students relates to gains in GPA, state hope, and self-confidence, and declines in absenteeism and tardiness.” (Clifton, Harter, 2003)

Why this approach? Gallup research of 2.24 million individuals in a variety of organizations concluded that organizations that emphasize the development of individual strengths and match talents to tasks do far better and nearly double their likelihood of success. (Gallup, 2002)

The Highest Achievers Spend most of their time in their areas of strength Have learned to delegate or partner with someone to tackle areas that are not strengths Use their strengths to overcome obstacles Invent ways of capitalizing on their strengths in new situations

Coaching with Impact Coaches who are: Knowledgeable Accessible Concerned Coaching that is: Strengths-based Planning-centered Goal-directed

Why A Strengths-Based Approach Promotes Student Achievement Helps students identify and increase their awareness of their strengths Teaches students ways of developing their strengths further This leads to greater self-efficacy and motivation Teaches students how to apply their strengths to new areas or to areas needing improvement Encourages students to build on their strengths in career and life planning

Developing Strengths Which of your strengths do you want to develop while you’re in college? What classes, co-curricular activities, internships, work could you use to develop these strengths?
