Strengths Based Leadership: Great Leaders, Teams, and Why People Follow Hardcover – 6 Jan. 2009

I am a great fan of this book and the Positive Psychology School of thought generally. This book helps create a corportate lexicon that allows people to accept and encourage others Strengths - allowing people to flourish and develop to reach their potentiol. I have found it a really helpful philosophy for my Senior Team.

Really interesting and well worth reading or listening to on Audible

An interesting and thought-provoking read. I'd recommend the book itself, but I'm not entirely convinced by the online test - of the top three strengths it claimed for me, two made sense and one was totally mystifying - absolutely not an attribute that I think I am strong on (or at least nowhere near as strong as some of the others that it didn't pick). I speculate that too many of my answers were neutral (which was how I answered if I really couldn't pick one of the two options provided over the other). However, there is no chance to go back and retake the test in order to find out. If this is the case, it needs better instructions up front as to how to deal with questions where you agree equally with both. And the report it provides based on the test is no more illuminating than reading the book. So, read the book, consider what your strengths are & how best to use them, but don't expect too much more enlightenment from the online test.

I enjoyed this. There was some helpful tips. I found the early and latter chapters particularly useful. It served and my airport read for a couple of trips.

Recommended by my boss, and enables you to focus on what you are good at rather than improving your weaknesses. A pleasant change to management books!

Book arrived as per time and as described; will buy from the seller again.

This book was recommend reading through my MBA and the book did not disappoint. I've always felt that as part of the annual personal development process and mt career it was important to improve ones weaknesses. This books puts that theory in perspective by highlighting that it is about understanding your strenghts and using them as they give you your personal energy, great read.

Fab book! Great investment
