 Or maybe Talent Finder August 14, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The book helps uncover talents related to people's 'DNA', that otherwise could stay undiscovered a lifetime. Recommended.
Could be a magazine article though.
Valuable assessment for developing strengths August 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is half of a tool that includes an on-line assessment of one's 5 dominant talents. It is a valuable assessment tool if you are interested in developing strengths related to your career. The book itself is not as informative as the original StrengthsFinder 1.0, Now, Discover Your Strengths. I used both, plus Go, Put Your Strengths to Work,the sequel. Together, I believe you get the complete picture on talents, strengths, weaknesses, and how to leverage your talents to build strengths where there is room for improvement.

This is a great tool! It not only gives you better insight into how to leverage your own strengths, it gives you tips on how to work with people whose strengths may be different than yours. I use it DAILY for my professional as well as my personal life.

Good addition to other personality typing systems August 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I did the Strengths Finder for work and then asked my family if they wanted to do it too. We bought four books and all took the test. It revealed some new information not already covered by Meyers-Briggs, Enneagram, and other systems we've taken and analyzed extensively. SF2 correlated a bit with Meyers-Briggs but explained some things in new ways. Although it would be nice if people automatically gave each other the benefit of the doubt, these systems help explain and legitimize coworkers' and family members' apparent quirks and hang ups, showing the rest of us how these things can be beneficial to teamwork and efficient functioning. Fun concept. Quick read. The blurbs about each strength are general in the book but tailored to you in light of your other strengths when you get the online results. So my advice is read just the introductory sections of the book and wait to read the descriptions of your strengths online after you take the online test.
