Now, Discover Your Strengths  (English, Paperback, Buckingham Marcus)

Now, Discover Your Strengths is the international bestseller compiled by the bestselling author Marcus Buckingham, and Donald O. Clifton. It discusses how you can develop talents and those of the people you manage.

Summary of the Book

Based on the vast study of more than two million people who have outrivaled in their careers, Now, Discover Your Strengths uses a radical programme to help readers in discovering their own distinct strengths and talents. The Strengths Finder Programme, conducted by The Gallup Organization, was a product of a twenty-five year, multi-million pound effort to recognise the most ubiquitous human talents. The programme presents thirty-four talents or themes and discloses how they can best be transformed into personal and professional success. Each copy of Now, Discover Your Strengths contains an exclusive password that gives the reader access to his/her Strengths Finder Profile - a Web-based interview that scrutinizes their natural reactions and instantly provides them with their five most prevailing strengths. Then, readers can make hands-on applications at three levels - as an individual, as a manager and as a member within an organization. They will learn what sort of environments they would flourish in; how managers can improve nurturing their employers' capacities; and how pretty much all organizations today constrain the talents of their employees and must change for the better.
