Editorial Review: Product Description: From the author of the long-running # 1 bestseller StrengthsFinder 2.0 comes a landmark study of great leaders, teams, and the reasons why people follow. Nearly a decade ago, Gallup unveiled the results of a landmark 30-year research project that ignited a global conversation on the topic of strengths. More than 3 million people have since taken Gallup's StrengthsFinder assessment, which forms the core of several books on this topic, including the #1 international bestseller StrengthsFinder 2.0. In recent years, while continuing to learn more about strengths, Gallup scientists have also been examining decades of data on the topic of leadership. They studied more than 1 million work teams, conducted more than 20,000 in-depth interviews with leaders, and even interviewed more than 10,000 followers around the world to ask exactly why they followed the most important leader in their life. In Strengths Based Leadership, #1 New York Times bestselling author Tom Rath and renowned leadership consultant Barry Conchie reveal the results of this research. Based on their discoveries, the book identifies three keys to being a more effective leader: knowing your strengths and investing in others' strengths, getting people with the right strengths on your team, and understanding and meeting the four basic needs of those who look to you for leadership. As you read Strengths Based Leadership, you'll hear firsthand accounts from some of the most successful organizational leaders in recent history, from the founder of Teach For America to the president of The Ritz-Carlton, as they discuss how their unique strengths have driven their success. Filled with novel research and actionable ideas, Strengths Based Leadership will give you a new road map for leading people toward a better future. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - An Invaluable Resource for Any LeaderAs a Strengths coach who has studied Leadership for years, I am thrilled to see Gallup come out with a book specific to utilizing Strengths in leadership roles. I can say that this resource is invaluable for anyone who intends to lead others in any situation. The 34 Strengths have not changed, but what this book adds that others don't is a sense of leadership-specific actions that you can take to grow in your Strengths and become the best leader you can possibly be. Strengths-based leadership ... Read More Rating: - Excellent readI greatly enjoyed this personal development book. As one in management, I found this a book that will add to my strengths as I deal with others. Highly recommend. I also enjoyed Walking Through Fire, An Iwo Jima Survivor's Remembrance Rating: - A good leadership bookA solid book. Of particular interest was the section that describes the Four Domains of Leadership Strength (executing, influencing, relationship building, strategic thinking). My fellow strengths fans should know that the book includes an access code to the StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment and customized Leadership Guide. You can use this code to take the StrengthsFinder 2.0. After you take it, you get the strengths report and your customized leadership guide. Or, if you took StrengthsFinder in the past, ... Read More Rating: - Strengths Based Leadership offers little new over StrengthsFinder2.0I eagerly awaited the publication of Strengths-based Leadership, as I had found Strengths Finder 2.0, so helpful. Unfortunately, Strengths-based Leadership offers little new over the earlier publication. In Strenghts Finder 2.0 and in this new publication, you are provided with your top 5 strengths. In the new publication, you are also shown in which of the 4 leadership group types, these strengths tend to fall: Executing, Influencing, Relationship Building and Strategic. The main limitation ...
