CliftonStrengths Assessment
What is CliftonStrengths?
CliftonStrengths (formerly StrengthsFinder) is an assessment from Gallup that identifies your top natural talents. Understanding your strengths can help you see how you already contribute and where you want to grow.
When We Use It
Assessments such as CliftonStrengths may support the work when they fit your goals. We discuss their purpose and any additional investment before including them.
