Course Abstract -
Gallup research proves that people succeed when they focus on what they do best. By identifying what your talents are, you can find the best way to go about accomplishing your work. Basically, you get to stop trying to be what you are not, and start being what you are. Play to your strengths, mitigate your weakness.
When you are engaged in your strengths, you will naturally perform better, and you will feel more energized and fulfilled while doing it. That will improve your level of engagement at work, leading to higher employee engagement for the organization. StrengthsFinder done in a group setting is a fantastic way to find this information out.
