The Strengths of Leadership

Awesome

How can i find out my leadership?

Zhenxing Yang: A unique access code for the leadership version of Gallup's Clifton StrengthsFinder program is enclosed in the Strengths Based Leadership book. You will need to purchase a copy of the book to access this leadership version. You can learn more about the book or purchase it at this link: http://gmj.gallup.com/content/111967/Strengths-Based-Leadership.aspx. Best regards, Barb Sanford, Managing Editor, Gallup Management Journal

Can we order downloadable books?
I have a code i have used early in 2003 and would want to try it again. Do i have to buy another book to try it?
Is there anyway we can buy the codes for a large class session? Or a demo codethat can perform the same function?

Monday Ogbe: Strengths Based Leadership is available in Kindle format. A code to take the assessment is available with this version of the book.

The Clifton StrengthsFinder assessment is available to the public only through Gallup's books and learning programs. Because the assessment is just one component of a strengths-based approach to personal development, it is not available as a “stand-alone test,” and access codes are not sold separately.

Should you have further questions, you may contact Gallup's Strengths Practice at this Web address: http://www.gallup.com/consulting/contactUs.aspx. Best regards, Barb Sanford, Managing Editor, Gallup Management Journal

Barbara, I am new to the Journal; so my question may be answered in other articles:

Many companies are implementing individual 360 assessments starting with mid-level leadership in the hope of developing 'well-rounded' leaders. Each participant is to develop the proscribed talents based on feedback from their peers, teams, and senior executives. Given the possibility and perhaps necessity of sharing/exercising the four domains of strengths-based leadership (executing, influencing, relationship building, and strategic thinking)among team members, do individual 360 instruments still have/add value?

Thanks, Denny

Barabara, You can disregard my earlier comment. I found the response in: "Evaluating Employee Performance (Part 1)" 360 focuses on weakness.

Thanks, Denny
