Here’s Me
I recently finished the book, Strengths Finder 2.0 by Tom Rath. Here are my top five (5) strengths as defined by the testing tool.
Relator – People who are especially talented in the Relator theme enjoy close relationships with others. They find deep satisfaction in working hard with friends to achieve a goal.
Maximizer – People who are especially talented in the Maximizer theme focus on strengths as a way to stimulate personal and group excellence. They seek to transform something strong into something superb.
Responsibility – People who are especially talented in the Responsibility theme take psychological ownership of what they say they will do. They are committed to stable values such as honesty and loyalty.
Command – People who are especially talented in the Command theme have presence. They can take control of a situation and make decisions.
Significance – People who are especially talented in the Significance theme want to be very important in the eyes of others. They are independent and want to be recognized.
To take the test go here.
I would be interested to know if anyone else has taken the test?
What did you think about your strengths?
Those of you who know me, is this accurate in your opinion?

As someone who has watched you lead for the past few years, I would place 'maximizer' and 'responsibility' at the top of that list.

Yes, except for that Realtor thing. I don't think you sell houses.
I will be taking this test too.
