As a management team, we recently went through Tom Rath's "Strengths Finder 2.0". We are now having our staff go through this as well. I highly recommend it. Great book. Great concept. It seems like many personality, strengths, giftedness, etc. tests yield results that reflect current strengths in use, and even learned traits. This one, however, seems to reveal natural strengths which I think are extremely important to consider. It's amazing how much of our lives we spend focusing on, and trying to overcompensate for our weaknesses (or maybe that's just me). How much more effective when we can focus in on our strengths and operate from that place?

Good point...if we continually work against our weaknesses we'll be spending countless hours and energy working at something we're bound to fail in... Good book, I like it!
