90: How to Interpret Your StrengthsFinder Results [PODCAST]




Coaching for Leaders: Better Leadership Through Improved Communications, Human Relations, and Personal Productivity show

Summary: On episode #89, I welcomed Steve Dosier, a StrengthsFinder expert formerly of Gallup and now with Blue Star Intel, to teach us about the history of StrengthsFinder. This week, he takes Bonni and I through our StrengthsFinder 2.0 results so you can learn more about the value of utilizing your StrengthsFinder report. Guest: Steve Dosier Blue Star Intel stevedosier@bluestarintel.com (714) 536–4871 Questions Steve asked of us: Individual Questions How closely do you feel your Top–5 Strengths match you? What do you agree strongly with? Are there any areas that don’t quite sound like you? Relationship Questions What Strengths do you feel you both connect upon and why? What Strengths do you find complimentary to your own and why? How do you leverage each other’s Strengths to get the best from each other? (You get the best of me when…) I feel this Strength helps me provide a unique contribution to our relationship… (My contribution to this relationship is….) Now that you know each other’s Strengths as defined by the Clifton StrengthsFinder Report, what do you better understand and appreciate about each other? (Was there a point of conflict or disagreement that StrengthsFinder has helped you better understand and manage?)
