Happen To Your Career - Meaningful Work, Career Change, & Career Design

Everywhere you look these days, you can find articles sharing why focusing on your strengths is more valuable than improving your weaknesses. Using your signature strengths in your role means you can be energized instead of drained, engaged instead of bored, and successful instead of struggling.

Bree knew she wasn’t using her strengths in her draining, repetitive role, but she wasn’t sure how to step into a position that truly fit her unique gifts. On this live coaching call, Scott helps her build a plan for revealing and reinforcing her signature strengths in her upcoming interview.

Listen to learn the 3 tactics that will help potential employers accurately perceive your strengths and the value you bring to their organization.

What you’ll learn

  • How to use your Clifton StrengthsFinder results, and where they will/won’t be useful for you!
  • Interviewing using your strengths (while still being humble and likable)
  • Why you don’t need to focus on weaknesses (even though it will undoubtedly be an interview question)
