Strengths Finders - Now, Discover your
StrengthsThis test will assist you in determining what your strengths and
talents are. Now, Discover your Strengths has the code inside the book jacket
used to take the strengths finders test. Once you purchase this book you can go
to www.strengthsfinders.com and take the test. When you take the test make sure
you print out your certificate and the profile information.
Amazon.com's Best of 2001 Effectively managing personnel--as
well as one's own behavior--is an extraordinarily complex task that, not
surprisingly, has been the subject of countless books touting what each claims
is the true path to success. That said, Marcus Buckingham and Donald O.
Clifton's Now, Discover Your Strengths does indeed propose a unique approach:
focusing on enhancing people's strengths rather than eliminating their
weaknesses. Following up on the coauthors' popular previous book, First, Break
All the Rules, it fully describes 34 positive personality themes the two have
formulated (such as Achiever, Developer, Learner, and Maximizer) and explains
how to build a "strengths-based organization" by capitalizing on the fact that
such traits are already present among those within it. Most original and
potentially most revealing, however, is a Web-based interactive component that
allows readers to complete a questionnaire developed by the Gallup Organization
and instantly discover their own top-five inborn talents. This device provides
a personalized window into the authors' management philosophy which, coupled
with subsequent advice, places their suggestions into the kind of practical
context that's missing from most similar tomes. "You can't lead a strengths
revolution if you don't know how to find, name and develop your own," write
Buckingham and Clifton. Their book encourages such introspection while
providing knowledgeable guidance for applying its lessons. --Howard Rothman

Book Description
While millions of people in the U.S. are actively involved in some sort of
religious organization, many people feel disengaged from their faith
communities. More than half report that they really don't get the opportunity
in their congregation to do what they do best. The problem is this: too many
people's talents are going unappreciated. But it doesn't have to be this way.
Living Your Strengths shows readers how to use their innate gifts to enrich
their faith communities. The book shows people how to identify and affirm their
talents, and how to use them for growth and service. Most importantly, Living
Your Strengths helps people discover their true callings. The book includes an
ID code that gives readers access to StrengthsFinder.com, a personality
assessment that reveals the user's top five talents. |

From Publishers Weekly
Unlike many how-to-sell books written by motivational gurus and
successful salespeople, Smith and Rutigliano's work is backed up by facts and
figures gleaned from 40 years of Gallup research. The authors, both Gallup
consultants, dissect stereotypes and debunk popular "myths" about selling to
determine that there is no one formula for success, and that training,
knowledge and experience cannot make a great salesperson. Instead, they find,
great salesmanship stems from exploiting individual talents. Top salespeople
succeed by figuring out what they do best and then finding a way and a place to
do it. With that argument established, Smith and Rutigliano take an interactive
approach to help readers find their own "Signature Themes," directing readers
to www.strengthsfinder.com (for which they'll need an "ID code" from a Gallup
publication) to gauge whether they fit their current situation by taking a quiz
based on a 12-step "hierarchy of employee engagement." Since the authors
contend that good managers help sales stars shine, they analyze what makes a
good sales manager and relay advice from those they deem "the world's best."
This inventive book should help people with a knack for sales achieve better
results. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to

The 4-Dimensional Manager: Disc
Strategies for Managing Different People in the Best
Ways
This book will give you the DiSC overview and
great insight as to how the DiSC Profile works.
Successful managers
work like coaches, assessing each person’s strengths and weaknesses and
developing the best strategy to get the job done. The 4-Dimensional Manager
shows how managers can become more effective by using the DiSC system.
“DiSC” stands for four communication styles: Dominance (direct and
decisive); Influence (optimistic and outgoing); Supportive (sympathetic and
cooperative); and Conscientious (concerned and correct). In the book’s
first part, readers assess their own style, the style of the people they
manage, and the style of their organization. The second part shows how to
choose the most effective style (or combination of styles) for any situation,
focusing on seven key areas: delegating, decision making, problem solving,
motivating, complimenting, giving constructive feedback, and developing skills.

Description
John C. Maxwell
offers lively stories about the foibles and successes of Lee Iacocca, Abraham
Lincoln, Princess Diana, and Elizabeth Dole in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of
Leadership. Readers can expect a well-crafted discussion that emphasizes the
core attitudes and visions of leadership. Maxwell uses the same
tell-it-like-it-is approach that he honed in the bestselling Developing the
Leader Within You. For instance, when explaining "The Law of Influence,"
Maxwell states that "job titles don't have much value when it comes to leading.
True leadership cannot be awarded, appointed or assigned. It comes only from
influence and that can't be mandated." Even after Princess Diana was stripped
of her title, Maxwell says she was still able to lead a global effort toward
banning land mines because of her sophisticated ability to influence others. If
readers are looking for a step-by-step formula, Maxwell's list of "laws" will
probably seem too chatty and anecdote driven. There are no specific tips on
what readers can do during the next workday to help them become stronger
leaders. On the other hand, Maxwell's background as a pastor gives him an
inspirational voice and a spiritual context to leadership that many business
and church leaders appreciate. --Gail Hudson Book
What would happen
if a top expert with more than thirty years of leadership experience were
willing to distill everything he had learned about leadership into a handful of
life-changing principles just for you? It would change your life. John C.
Maxwell has done exactly that in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. He has
combined insights learned from his thirty-plus years of leadership successes
and mistakes with observations from the worlds of business, politics, sports,
religion, and military conflict. The result is a revealing study of leadership
delivered as only a communicator like Maxwell can. |

Description
Few of us are natural-born leaders,
according to John C. Maxwell, author of Developing the Leader Within You.
Fortunately though, "the traits that are the raw material of leadership can be
acquired," he promises. "Link them up with desire and nothing can keep you from
becoming a leader. This book will supply the leadership principles. You must
supply the desire." True to his words,
Maxwell offers a detailed and
inspiring primer on becoming a leader. Even the Table of Contents reads like a
motivational poster. Maxwell (The 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader), who
is the founder of INJOY, a Christian-based leadership program, debunks the myth
that strong leaders must have big egos and spend all their time harnessing
personal power. Instead, he elevates leadership to a spiritual act of service:
"The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership."
Maxwell relies on real-life anecdotes, short paragraphs, charts, and numerous
lists to make his wisdom accessible. As a result, his writing often seems
simplistic, with a self-help tone. Nonetheless, in teaching readers how to
bring out the best in themselves as well as others, Maxwell offers a worthwhile
life lesson that extends far beyond the workplace. --Gail Hudson Book
In this repackaged bestseller John Maxwell examines the differences between
leadership styles, outlines principles for inspiring, motivating, and
influencing others. These principles can be used in any organization to foster
integrity and self-discipline and bring a positive change.
Developing
the Leader Within You also allows readers to examine how to be effective in the
highest calling of leadership by understanding the five characteristics that
set "leader managers" apart from "run-of-the-mill managers."
In this
John Maxwell classic, he shows readers how to develop the vision, value,
influence, and motivation required of successful leaders. |
