In the last decade, I’ve shared in thousands of conversations about Strengths. As a coach, it has been my mission to explore with my clients each aspect of what it means to be Strengths focused and to live from a place of “what it possible”, instead of “what needs fixing.”

What I have found, time and time again, is that when we are each able to get out of our own we can step into a life with greater meaning, less stress, and more aliveness. There is no greater tool that I have found than StrengthsFinder/CliftonStrengths to begin this journey to personal freedom.

The following pages are organized into two distinct sections. The first is a deep dive into one of the four Strengths Domains, which are: Executing, Influencing, Strategic Thinking, and Relationship Building. These are categories designed by the creators of the StrengthsFinder/CliftonStrengths, which organizes the 34 Strengths Themes into specific clusters.

The Strengths Themes represented in this collection are in the Influencing Domain— Activator, Command, Communication, Competition, Maximizer, Self-Assurance, Significance, and Woo.

Here's a taste:

What Is the ACTIVATOR Theme

Activators are the high-energy, high-output people in our lives who love to hit the go button and make things happen. They are outwardly action-oriented in their approach to life and they often live in perpetual motion, mainly preferring it that way. Their style is one of “fire, fire, aim”. This doesn’t make them reckless, instead it makes them fearless (or, better, it makes them, simply, fear less). Being naturally confident in their abilities to deliver and to sort out messes, Activators embody a vision that says, “Let’s dive in, we’ll figure it all out along the way!” And, they are champions of the learn-as-you- grow mentality—they own their mistakes, look for the lesson, and dive back in. They would rather learn in the field—and get bumped and bruised—than learn in a chair and get bored. For them, the value, meaning, and enjoyment of life is in the doing—not in the theorizing, scheduling, and planning. (Cont'd in the Book)

Why Should We Care

They are self-reliant, self-starting, high-achieving people who know intuitively how to get things moving. Action is everything to them and they encourage us to shake things up and put the gears in motion. For an Activator, a shaky launch is unquestionably better than no start at all. In that, they sow seeds of wisdom, reminding us that if we (Cont'd in the book)

The second section of this book includes a collection of observations and reflections about how a “Strengths mindset” can best develop in each of us. This section is based on the epic coaching conversations I’ve had with people all over the world about their Strengths and the countless of hours of study and writing on this powerful tool.

The idea in both sections is to expand on the base that has created by Strengths ambassadors around the globe and the idea here is to explore each theme more deeply than ever. The idea is not to challenge the already established ideas regarding each of the 34 Strengths Themes. Instead, in the following pages, those original ideas will be built upon and, in some cases, unpacked more thoroughly than what is presently available online and in print.
