I posted the other day about Marcus Buckingham’s book, Now, Discover Your Strengths. I really like this book. I’ve got through the explanation about why focusing on your strengths and I’ve discovered my Strength themes and learning about them and how they shape me and my work.
My themes are… Restorative- problem solver Relator- pulled toward building stronger relationships with people I already know Adaptability-flexible Input- crave knowledge Significance- don’t want to be mediocre, driven by goals and achievement
I’ve sat down and written a list of how I think my strengths play in my ministry. I am honing the list and try to make sure that I realize how all my strengths play into my work ethic, drive and personality. Again I really recommend this book for personal use and for people in management role.
