Top 5 Clifton Strengths

How They Benefit You When We Work Together

Strategic

Evaluating alternatives to select the best path forward.   All of life is a series of strategic decisions from designing a marketing mix to deciding what’s for dinner. I help clients identify options and work through decisions.

R

Achiever

Lists and organization are at the heart of how I get things done.  When working with me, you can expect that I will have a structured approach, organize the work to be done, and keep detailed track of plans.

Individualization

I believe that no two individuals, teams, or companies are alike. Strategies and ideas that work for others may not work for you. Techniques and ideas are uniquely tailored to your situation and goals.

Maximizer

I start with something good and enjoy finding ways to make it great. You are already awesome. I help determine the steps to take to close the gap between the current state and the vision you aspire to achieve.

Input

I read, listen to podcasts, attend webinars, and “collect” lots of information and ideas on a diverse set of topics. This enables me to have a toolbox full of resources that can address your current situation or challenge.

“Discussing how other team members perceive and react to my strengths was helpful.  It’s important to have a strong sense of how you show up to the people you interact with, but I think having another person to help you unpack what is/isn’t working about your presence on teams essential.”
