Why Learn About Strengths? Strengths are qualities that empower people to do specific things very well Gallup research shows that highly successful people learn to play to their strengths and manage/minimize their weaknesses

What is a Strength? Attitudes that sustain efforts toward achievement and excellence Behavior patterns that make a person effective Beliefs that empower a person to succeed Motivations that propel a person to take action and maintain the energy needed to achieve Thought patterns that make a person efficient/effective

Myth #3: A good team member does whatever it takes to help the team. Truth: A good team member deliberately volunteers his or her strengths to the team most of the time.
