Riassunto

Based on a Gallup study of over two million people who have excelled in their careers, this text uses a programme to help readers discover their distinct talents and strengths. The product of 25 years research, the "StrengthFinder" programme introduces 34 talent or themes and reveals how they can best translate into personal and career success. After going through the programme, and discovering which of the 34 themes dominates their profile, readers can make practical applications for change: within their own lives, as a manager and within an organization. The book shows readers what environments they flourish best in and helps them to make changes around them, how managers can better cultivate their employee's talents, and how organizations inhibit the talents of their people and need to change.

Recensione:

"The importance of this book is its stress on concentrating on people's strengths. The book should be reading for any manager who is really concerned to retain and develop his or her best people. This, and only this, will be the major differentiator for organisations in the future."
- Dr. John Hunt, London Business School
