review 1: What do you want to be when you grow up? What are your strengths? What careers would you enjoy more?I like this approach better than the Strength's Finder series. Because the online assessment asks participants to make decisions and react to situations instead of rating themselves, I think it is a more realistic snapshot of a person's strengths as others experience them.The personal profiles are more user friendly and practical than the Strengths Finders profiles.
review 2: Are you really a Teacher (like I thought I was) or is teaching just one way to do what you love best--like connecting ideas to people? Or maybe you're a Pioneer who loves to try out all the new gizmos, or an Advisor who is always listening to others and building them up.StandOut is a self-he
... morelp book that has you take an online test to determine your top two inner strengths (it is focused on those who work outside the home but I reframed the questions for myself and still loved the results). Then you read in the book about how these strengths can help you stand out (or hinder you) in your work. You'll also find out why certain things you do feel more satisfying than others. Do's & Don'ts for each strength make the book well worth the cost! I highly recommend this for everyone who is ready for a boost in life. less
