NOW, DISCOVER YOUR STRENGTHS

People are most effective when they develop and use their strengths, rather than struggling with their weaknesses. The advice offered here is based on research by the Gallup Organization involving 34 strengths or talents. Adjust jobs to match employees' strengths; choose workers to match job requirements, rather than hiring carelessly; and adjust individual career paths, rather than suffering needlessly in the wrong job or career. When employees use their strengths, this research shows, an organization has lower turnover, higher productivity, and greater customer satisfaction. Richard Rohan’s pacing, tone, and enunciation are perfect for this presentation. His voice is relaxed and always in touch with the author’s intentions, and his interpretation is neither too mechanical nor too enthusiastic.
