Starting Point

What are my strengths? Do you find it difficult answering this question spontaneously and convincingly? You are not alone in this. Many people have difficulties pinpointing and articulating them precisely.

However, research shows us: people who use their strengths are more engaged, happier and feel more fulfilled. Awareness of our strengths enables us to experience flow, personal growth, and job satisfaction.

You have sharpened your idea of how to incorporate your strengths into your professional and personal life. Further, you have developed strategies for the first steps to achieve this goal.
