Engagement - Living Your Strengths

Living Your Strengths is a Gallup-based program that teaches you to identify and affirm your talents.  More importantly, living your strengths enables you to use your God-given gifts to enrich your own life and inspire others.

What is Strength?  “A strength is an innate trait that gives you the ability to provide consistent, near-perfect performance in a given activity.  This ability is a powerful, productive combination of talent, skill and knowledge.  Talents are naturally occurring patterns of thought, feeling and behavior that can be productively applied.  Unlike skills and knowledge, talents naturally exist within you and cannot be acquired.  They are your inborn predispositions.  They are things that you do instinctively and that naturally give you satisfaction.  You will be most successful in whatever you do by building your life around your greatest natural abilities.”  Living Your Strengths, Winseman, Clifton and Liesveld, 2008
