Self-assessments help individuals understand and focus on their best qualities that are unique to them but also show awareness of the areas that are possible opportunities for growth. Self-assessments can be broken down and categorized with many options for results. When completing the self-assessment I discovered that my three areas of strength were demonstrating a willingness to understand the perspectives of others through verbal and non-verbal communication.

However, my three areas of improvement were writing communication that is organized and accurate reflecting appropriate terminology. Also, actively seeking feedback that is responsive, and modifies behavior according from others regarding performance. Third, managing my time effectively.

According to the Gallup findings on my Strengths Finder Assessment, I tend to go with the flow and take things as they come (adaptability), and enjoy life and the beauty in it, as well as avoid unnecessary stress for self and others (Gallup). I remember once in a social assignment that I was heading, where I was required to lead a team to come up with ideas on how to improve a church outreach program. As the leader, I wanted everything to work out well in consideration of timeliness, quality, and in involving all team members to feel ownership and participation throughout the process. By identifying these three characteristics (timeliness, quality, and involvement), my strengths of adaptability, strategy, relator,

For example, I was uncertain about my result restorative, by going into greater detail on this result, I was able to understand the concept better. After reviewing “Your Personalized Strengths Insight” (Gallup, n.d.,) section, I do believe restorative can be a personal strength for me. My personal results explained the reason I received the theme restorative for my strength stating, “You are motivated when your results are compared to those of others. This is one reason you routinely incorporate self-improvement activities into your life. It’s very likely that you usually pay more attention to your shortcomings than your strong points. You customarily devote yourself to overcoming your limitations.” (Gallup, n.d., p. 5). This statement is very true; I am a very motivated individual, and I am always trying to better myself. I am a person that does not focus on my strengths, but on my weaknesses that I need to improve. Overall, I feel this assessment was accurate, and I was not surprised by the strengths

By applying my positive attitude and sense of finding a common ground among coworkers, it will enable me to apply this strength to my daily life. Lastly, the strength of achiever was a lesser theme for me compared to my other top strengths. I sometimes take on too many tasks and want to accomplish many things in order to make me feel good about myself. I am extremely committed to everything I do and influence others to succeed in what they do. Yet, I need to learn how to prioritize certain goals and put things to the

My clearfit report was interestingly very true it was off by just a bit but overall it did represent me well. one of the parts that really resonated with me was coping with change. for most people change can be very difficult. An example where I had to deal with change in the workplace was I had a manager for 2 years who was very laid back and easygoing but one day I came in to work and we have new boss who is really strict and by the book. in order to keep my job and boss satisfied I had to cope with many changes in the workplace she was putting into effect. I had to change my work habits to please the new manager. Another strength I have is that I am able to work well in different kind of situations and conditions. when needed I am able to

Using a strengths-based philosophy, Karly’s counsellor used the SFA to focus on her strengths and uncover her unique talents, knowledge and skills. By taking the SFA, Karly can see how her strengths can be applied in her work, daily life and how she relates to people.

Focusing on strengths, Karly and the counsellor can look at ways she can practice her strengths in an optimal and accelerated way, possibly in a new

After taking the “Strength Finder,” I was excited to find out my Top 5 Themes, which are the following: Responsibility, Strategic, Relator, Maximizer, and Activator.

However, once I read each theme, application, and ideas for action, I found some

Strengths- I have always been told by my teachers that I am a good writer. When writing, I organize my thoughts in ways that make my writing easy to follow and understand.
