I was initially surprised by my number one strength (I’m intellection, empThy, input, responsibility, deliberative) since it’s something I’ve historically considered more of a flaw. I feel like reframing the fact that I tend to think things through very carefully as a strength has been quite liberating. <br /><br />I’m curious how much your results changed from the first time you took the test to the second.

My strengths turned out to be: Restorative, Relator, Input, Ideation and Developer. I was initially surprised by when I studied the definition of each strenght, I saw that "yes" it was me. As a manager, the more you know about yourself, a better leader you can be.<br /><br />I also had the opportunity to have my staff do the test as well. I found that I was surrounded by staff members who were strong in areas where others were weak. Maybe this is why we work so well together as a team.<br /><br />Nicole Haché<br />@cegeplibrarian<br />Nicole H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526395708151259760noreply@blogger.com
