All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths. <P>To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions to discover their top five talents. <P>In its latest national bestseller, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more (see below for details). While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades. <P>Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this new book and accompanying website will change the way you look at yourself -- and the world around you -- forever. <P>AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY IN THE NEW & UPGRADED EDITION OF STRENGTHSFINDER 2.0 <BR>(using the unique access code included with each book) <P>* A new and upgraded edition of the StrengthsFinder assessment <P>* A personalized Strengths Discovery and Action-Planning Guide for applying your strengths in the next week, month, and year <P>* A more customized version of your top five theme report <P>* 50 Ideas for Action (10 strategies for building on each of your top five themes) <P>* The more user-friendly StrengthsFinder 2.0 companion website, with a strengths community area, library of downloadable discussion guides and activities, a strengths screensaver, and a program for creating display cards of your top five themes 55015 1 2 2007 StrengthsFinder 2.0: A New and Upgraded Edition of the Online Test from Gallup's Now, Discover Your Strengths total:606|5:156|4:217|3:184|2:40|1:9| 606 2289 971 171 56454 159562015X 9781595620156 606 171 3.78 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170458462m/56454.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56454.StrengthsFinder_2_0_A_New_and_Upgraded_Edition_of_the_Online_Test_from_Gallup_s_Now_Discover_Your_Strengths 5 2 false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Aug 08 20:36:04 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 08 20:40:37 -0700 2008
