YOUR PERSONALIZED STRENGTHS INSIGHTS
What makes you stand out?
Instinctively, you might realize you interact with certain people better when you maintain a healthy
equilibrium — that is, an intellectual or emotional poise — in all areas of your life. Perhaps you intentionally
avoid dedicating every waking moment to one thing, whether it is your job, studies, volunteering, or
community service. You might notice that conflicts or disagreements are less intense when you finish the
assignments that key individuals give to you each day. It’s very likely that you welcome into your life who
are quite different from you. A realist by nature, you understand that everyone’s talents, skills, and
experiences are needed to make the world function properly. Having favorites or giving someone special
privileges violates your conviction that all people should be treated the same way. Driven by your talents,
you are open to welcoming a wide array of people into your life. Being practical, you realize every individual
you meet possesses talents, skills, and experiences that you and those you already know lack. Typically
you are the person who helps people find reasons to befriend, work, and cooperate with newcomers and
outsiders. Because of your strengths, you may count on specialists to help you arrive at the correct
solution, decision, or conclusion. When you choose to work alone on an assignment, you periodically turn
to people with expertise for direction. Chances are good that you are inclined to be attentive to what people
tell you. This explains why you are surprisingly knowledgeable about the thoughts or feelings of others.
You place a priority on giving equal attention to every speaker, not just the people you like or those who
share your interests. For that reason, your understanding of individuals and situations is undoubtedly much
greater than that of nonstop talkers.
