There are 277+ personality assessments and each one tells you something about human behavior. Some tell you about motivations, childhood wounds, stressed vs. stretched, and many about personality.

CliftonStrengths is different from the others because it spells out specifically HOW you get things done — how you build relationships, how you influence people, how you start projects, and how you finish them.

To learn more about CliftonStrengths and how to best aim or leverage your talents within your current position and within your team, we encourage you to check out our newest blog: The Power of Discovering and Working In Your Strengths.

When you introduce the Team Strengths Grid at the right time, you spark meaningful conversations. Unfortunately, Misuse of the Team Strengths Grid introduces risks of labeling people.
