Playing To Your Strengths Ascent

The most effective teams leverage each participant’s talents. According to Gallup studies, absent a strengths focus, employee engagement averages a dismal 1 in 11 (9%). Conversely, when an organization’s leadership focuses on the strengths of its employees, the odds of employee engagement soar to almost 73%. Led by a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, our Playing To Your Strengths Ascent uses Gallup’s StrengthsFinder Assessment as a foundation to guide participants through how to leverage strengths in the workplace. Throughout the workshop, participants will learn how to identify, approach, and leverage their strengths; conditions that distinguish high performing teams; and what they need as individuals to perform best through interactive exercises that volunteers will share with the group.

PERFECT FOR

  • Professional Services Teams
  • Business Teams
  • Partner Groups
  • Company Leaders

Overview

Each Playing To Your Strengths Ascent includes one, live training session presented in a 60 to 120-minute format, that incorporates a formal presentation, group discussion, interactive group exercises, and valuable follow up for each participant to complete. During the session, participants will get to know each other and walk away with an understanding of each individual’s strengths, key team dynamics, and action items they can implement right away to maximize their strengths together and within the company. Individual StrengthsFinder Assessments and a Team Strengths Analysis, conducted before the session, are available to enhance the training session.

AT THE SUMMIT

At the summit, your team will be able to:

  • Understand and leverage their inherent skills to achieve professional success
  • Recognize and embrace the talents of each team member
  • Implement practical next steps to enhance their work performance and professional success

What’s Covered

TRAINING SESSION
Team Workshop

The session will address practical, actionable ways the team can leverage its collective and individual strengths to enhance the performance and culture of the company. Each attendee will leave with immediate ways to leverage their strengths as individuals and as members of the team.

While it would be helpful for participants to have some familiarity with Gallup’s StrengthsFinder Assessment prior to the workshop, it is not a requirement. All participants will walk away with valuable take-aways, insights into their own strengths, and practical implementation tips regardless of their familiarity with the assessment.

OPTIONAL ADD-ON
StrengthsFinder Assessments & Analysis

For those who want to take a deeper look at team and individual strengths, this phase will include the distribution of the brief, electronic StrengthsFinder Assessment to each individual member of your team. Our team will then perform an in-depth analysis of the Assessment results to include in the training session. Leadership will also receive a copy of the team's StrengthsFinder Grid and Analysis.

Additionally, a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach can meet individually with leadership for a 60-minute consultation to explain the Assessment findings and how to leverage individual strengths for team success.

One-On-One Coaching Sessions are available, at an additional cost, to reinforce this Ascent. Please contact us for more information.
