My Clifton StrengthsFinder profile
Four years ago, I took the Clifton's StrengthsFinder personality test from Gallup.
Here is my signature theme, which I think it provides a good outlook of my professional and interpersonal skills. As I am supposed to do coaching and mentoring, I believe my current and future coachees/mentees will find it useful.
Activator
You can see how ideas can be turned into action.
You want to do things now, rather than simply talk about doing them.
You can be very powerful in making things happen and getting people to take action.
Other people may criticize you for being impatient and seeming to “run over” them. You will probably struggle with people who try to control you.
Activator talents are valuable because they generate the energy to get things going and then done. This theme brings innovation and creative approaches to problem solving.
Communicator
You like to talk, and you are good at it.
You can explain things and make them clear.
You may have an ability to tell particularly captivating stories by constructing mental images in the minds of others.
You may have been criticized because you like to talk a lot.
Communication talents are valuable because your abilities in this area enable you to reach out and connect with people. Your storytelling ability builds images in the minds of others and makes you a powerful person as you connect and bond with people.
Learner
You want to continuously learn and improve.
You enjoy the process of learning as much as what you actually learn.
You get a thrill out of learning new facts, beginning a new subject, and mastering an important skill. Learning builds your confidence.
You can get frustrated about wanting to learn so many different things because you fear you’ll never be an expert.
Learner talents are valuable because they propel you to thrive in a dynamic world where learning is a necessity. You can learn a lot in a short period of time.
Self-Assurance
You are confident about your ability to manage your life.
You can “bounce back” from disappointments and crises.
You believe that your decisions are right and that your perspective is unique and distinct.
Other people may see your self-assurance as a type of pride or arrogance.
Some people may criticize you when they wish that they had your confidence. Sometimes people want to get close to you because they hope that some of your confidence will rub off on them. But other people will keep you away because they don’t have your confidence and are afraid that you will see through them.
Self-Assurance talents are valuable because they keep you strong as you withstand many pressures, as you stay on your course, and as you willingly claim the authority to form conclusions, make decisions, and act.
Winning Others Over
You have the capacity to quickly connect with people and generate positive responses from them.
You can enter a crowd of people and easily know what to do and what to say.
You see no strangers, only friends you haven’t met yet.
Because you know so many people, some may believe that you form only shallow relationships. Others, however, will envy the way you make friends.
Woo talents are valuable because people are influenced by your ability to draw them into a group or a relationship.
