Strength-based Leadership                              

Research shows that members of high-performance teams rely on their strengths 75% of their time.  Engaged workers are the lifeblood of organizations. Yet, Gallup research has found that 70%  of American workers are not engaged or are actively disengaged in their jobs, which costs U.S. businesses up to $550 billion per year.

The general population, however, reports that it leans on its strengths less than 20% of the time.  Why? They focus on what they don’t do well. Consequently, they fail to leverage what comes naturally. Levels of employee engagement are seven times greater when leaders focus on the strengths of their employees. Employees experience greater confidence and increased productivity when they are able to utilize their strengths on a daily basis.

This program focuses on the value of utilizing the Clifton StrengthsFinder as a tool to identify and leverage not only individual strengths, but how to utilize other employees' strengths, as well.
