Finding your Strengths!

I just saw Marcus Buckingham clearly and succinctly run a workshop on finding your strengths at work.

He demonstrated how, by not knowing what your strengths are and not actively creating work as being a place where most of the things you do are strengths, that you gradually can turn work into a place where you are mostly doing things that you loathe.

His findings in his workshop group was that people had lost their passion and their energy for their work. That they were tired - even drained through their work - even though most of them shared that when they first started their new job, they were excited and passionate about doing their work.

The main reason for this?

If you don't know what your strengths are and you don't honor and nurture your strengths at work - you don't fight for them, you don't make sure you use them most of the time - you don't design your work around them!

So how much of your strengths are you using at work?

How much of your work is about what you know you are great at, rather than what others expect and want you to be great at?

What really are your strengths and what should you be doing to express those strengths to have the biggest and easiest success in your work.
