Product Description

DO YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO WHAT YOU DO BEST EVERY DAY?

Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.

To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions to discover their top five talents.

In its latest national bestseller, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more (see below for details). While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades.

Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this new book and accompanying website will change the way you look at yourself -- and the world around you -- forever.

AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY IN THE NEW & UPGRADED EDITION OF STRENGTHSFINDER 2.0
(using the unique access code included with each book)

* A new and upgraded edition of the StrengthsFinder assessment

* A personalized Strengths Discovery and Action-Planning Guide for applying your strengths in the next week, month, and year

* A more customized version of your top five theme report

* 50 Ideas for Action (10 strategies for building on each of your top five themes)

* The more user-friendly StrengthsFinder 2.0 companion website, with a strengths community area, library of downloadable discussion guides and activities, a strengths screensaver, and a program for creating display cards of your top five themes

5 out of 5 stars Strengths Finder 2.0   November 23, 2008
The outlook of the book I ordered via Amazon.com looks pretty good. I like the conveniency of purchasing books online. Overall, it's been a pleasant experience for me.



5 out of 5 stars Great Tool   November 16, 2008
I have used this book/test many times and believe it to be a real tool for helping individuals and groups focus on strengths rather than weaknesses. There is a Proverb in the Bible that says something like, "Do you see a man skilled in his work?" In other words, the best at what he/she does? "That man will stand before kings."
The premise of focusing on the gifts God has specifically given you and teaming up with others so they can use their strengths where you are weak is how I believe God meant things to be.



5 out of 5 stars Must Read   November 12, 2008
If you have not done anything like this before then try this book. It is really just a quick activity (20min of reading/30min online test/20min post test review) that could change your life direction if you let it. The concept is simple...you cannot fix your weaknesses so focus on you positives... It gives you some guidance on how to work on the natural talents you have to make you a better person overall. Great read/activity for anyone!


3 out of 5 stars Recomend the online test - not the book   November 4, 2008
I enjoyed the online test and I'm very disappointed that the only way to take the online test is to purchase the book. Just about everything in the book is online. I'd like to have all my staff take the test but refuse to purchase that many books. I'm not sure why you cannot purchase a key to take the test only. For this reason (waste of resources) I would not reccomend it.


3 out of 5 stars Waste of money   October 31, 2008
  1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I didn't find anything special about the book. The professor wanted us to do the test, so we did, and I don't need the book anymore. It is frustrating because you have to buy it new to do the test and you can't sell it to anybody. What a waste of money and paper!!! Gready authors and publishers: please think about the environment at least!
