The Thoughtful Talents Show

  • Summary

  • The Thoughtful Talents Show is what happens when two Gallup Certified Strengths Coaches who both have Deliberative and Responsibility talents get together.

    Coaches Jen Werner and Chad Ahern share their unique & thoughtful perspectives about Gallup’s CliftonStrengths talent themes, leadership, followership, and teamwork.

    In our coaching work, we've each encountered clients who want to understand the nuances of how each talent theme can show up differently. This is our answer. We look forward to sharing our personal insights about living and working with our unique talents, how we’ve seen others use their talents, and how others can address leadership & teamwork principles.

    We hope the insights we share in each upcoming episode will help you, and others, live your talents, understand those around you, and be effective leaders and teammates.

  • Includer®️ (w/ Florence Hardy and Shaina Lane)
    Apr 9 2024

    Do you long to make others feel valued and included?

    On this episode of The Thoughtful Talents Show, e2grow & Gallup Certified Strengths Coaches Florence Hardy and Shaina Lane share their insights on the CliftonStrengths® Includer® talent theme. We learn those with Includer talents are great at building community and creating meaningful connections with others. They have a keen awareness of when others are feeling left out, and regularly use their ability to make others feel comfortable, heard, valued, and ultimately put them at ease.

    Florence and Shaina highlight how their Includer talents allow them to create space while (and by) withholding judgments. They have a willingness to accept and invite others in, regardless of their opinions. They are uninterested in hierarchy, as they believe everyone has value and something to contribute. They share that unlike others who may try to influence (like WOO) or have an agenda to 'get stuff done' (like Achievers), those with Includer strictly want others to be and feel included, with no alternate agenda

    For those with high Includer, realize that there can be issues when inviting too many people in. Use care not to invite 'too many cooks to the kitchen'. Setting clear expectations can help provide guardrails to reduce delays that could be caused by wanting all voices to be heard.

    We invite you to share with us your personal experience with the Includer theme.

  • Discipline®️ (w/ Kristen O'Shea and Ron Cheshire)
    Mar 26 2024

    Is your life organized for maximum efficiency?

    On this episode we welcome e2grow & Gallup Certified Strengths Coaches Kristen O’Shea and Ron Cheshire to explore with us the CliftonStrengths® Discipline® talent theme. They share how their Discipline talents allow them to plan resources such as time & energy for maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Setting routines and creating structure helps to reduce the cognitive load, allowing them to not waste precious resources on the day-to-day mundane duties. They often like to lend their talents to others, helping them to get organized. The help us understand that many people with Discipline talents consider themselves self-starters who prefer clear expectations. They want to be in control of their time, energy, and resources; feeling they can produce the best outcomes when given the autonomy to create necessary efficiencies.

    If you have high Discipline, know that not everyone embraces your love of routines, it’s important to judge others' work based on the results...not the methods. If you’re working with someone with high Discipline talents, invite them to share with you ways to create structure for maximum efficiency.

    We invite you to share with us your personal experience with the Discipline theme.
