Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths. To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions to discover their top five talents. In its latest national bestseller, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more (see below for details). While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades. Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this new book and accompanying website will change the way you look at yourself -- and the world around you -- forever. AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY IN THE NEW & UPGRADED EDITION OF STRENGTHSFINDER 2.0 (using the unique access code included with each book) * A new and upgraded edition of the StrengthsFinder assessment * A personalized Strengths Discovery and Action-Planning Guide for applying your strengths in the next week, month, and year * A more customized version of your top five theme report * 50 Ideas for Action (10 strategies for building on each of your top five themes) * The more user-friendly StrengthsFinder 2.0 companion website, with a strengths community area, library of downloadable discussion guides and activities, a strengths screensaver, and a program for creating display cards of your top five themes Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Uncanny ToolMy boss purchased this book and its associated personality test for our department. I was so impressed with its results that I purchased three copies for family and friends. The book focuses on ways to identify and enhance your strengths rather than how to bring up your weaknesses. While both approaches have value, this book was the first to look at enhancing strengths. You purchase in all likelihood find the book an amazing and pleasant surprise. DJ Rating: - Extraordinary resourceThis is the one resource that every manager and leader should require their employees to complete. It identifies the employee's core thinking which allows the manager and leader to direct employees into roles that match their thinking. This drives employee engagement and performance. A must for everyone in business. Rating: - Strengths Finder - Edition 2.0What a great book! The concept of how we are encouraged and accept the idea of "being" a certain type of person "when we grow up" versus "who we really are" speaks volumes in the assessment test of this book's Gallop's test. My hat is off to the concept!StrengthsFinder 2.0: A New and Upgraded Edition of the Online Test from Gallup's Now, Discover Your Strengths Rating: - Read together with Now, Discover your strengthsIt is relly uncanny, how dead on this test is. Use this to better understand yourself and put your strengths to work. Don't think you'll get step-by-step answers on "what to do next". But, if you are really interested in understanding yourself, and putting some effort forth to make changes for the better, then these are the books for you. I say books, because I read both the original "Now, Discover Your Strengths" and "Strengths Finder 2.0". I'm glad I did - "Now, Discover.." provides more information ...

Do you wonder why you react in certain ways? Are you looking for a better way to make right decisions, enjoy peace of mind, and live in harmony with others. This may be the book for you. "Strengths Finder 2.0" is an extension of "strengths" research begun more than forty years ago by the late `Father of Strengths Psychology," Dr. Donald Clifton of the Gallup Organization.
