Eye opening

There have been several books on personality profiling. This one brings all together new perspective to it. Most importantly, it explains why every person is different and still very good at something or other. There is scientific explanation as well as easy to understand practical perspective.

What is not there is an easy way for person to make use of the knowledge. I am guessing that it's covered in this book from the same author. Go Put Your Strengths to Work: 6 Powerful Steps to Achieve Outstanding Performance

Remember: Please by new book to have your own profile composed. There is a code in the book which can be used only once.

Working With Weaknesses In Business Is Expensive

As CEO Coach, Poet and author of a leadership book that helps leaders unleash their genis, the genius of teams and the genius of corporations, I have found the teachings of this book considtant and in support of my work. Expanding and integating your strengths has a much higher return on investment in time than working on life long weaknesses. Paul David Walker Unleashing Genius: Leading Yourself, Teams and Corporations

Worth every penny

This was an eyeopener. It helped me to realize what I have always felt: Focus on your strengths - not your weaknesses. It seems obvious, but all too often we spend time focusing on our weakness and trying to bring them up to our strengths. Forget about it. You are never going to be strong in an area that you are naturally weak. You can get to a certain level of competency - enough to get by. But, you cannot expect more than that.

Find your strengths. Find a career that allows you to excel and become the best that you can.

Excellent

If you really want to identify your strengths and unlearn what you have learned about making yourself "better," this book is a must. At first, I was taken aback by the author's concept of not really working on your weaknesses, but really training your strengths to overcome them. This concept is quite liberating and is REALLY want is used by those who succeed in their respective fields.

You can not discover your strengths because the site is down.

The site for the 1.0 version is down until the 25'the of February. I also bought the 2.0 book, but was unable to put in a good password, so both books are useless if you want to actually take the test to discover your strengths.
