CliftonStrengths is a framework to help you understand your potential and build an actionable development roadmap.I have seen the power it has to transform an individual’s confidence and impact.

I’ve also used the tool to help leaders build their capabilities in providing others with honest, constructive and kind feedback that enriches relationships and helps improve business performance.

Finally, this is my favorite tool to use with teams to build a culture that promotes inclusivity and belonging.

I certified as a Gallup CliftonStrength coach in 2020 and have since helped many clients grow their impact with the tool. I currently consult with the University of California-Merced and also work individually with clients and teams across different industries. 90% of Fortune 500 companies use CliftonStrengths to develop their employees- let’s start your journey today!

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

Individuals

Clifton Strengths is the best tool I’ve found to help professionals look in, and respond with authentic intention. It’s simple, but it’s not easy. 

Whether you are a student, individual contributor, leader or find yourself in a time of transition, let’s leverage Clifton Strengths to

  • Curate your self-awareness and grow your confidence in networking, interviewing & beyond 

  • Define how you uniquely contribute to teams

  • Articulate your style and expectations to those

    you work with

  • Set a clear purpose and vision statement with your teams

  • Respond to the challenges in your role authentically

Teams

My favorite application of Clifton Strengths for teams is inclusivity & belonging.

The assessment provides you with a rich language with which to discuss the ways we see the world, approach our work, and collaborate.

It encourages us to get curious about ourselves and our team mates, and put blame and judgement aside. 

From that place, collaboration can flourish.
