Talent Inventory – Step One
Based on the book “Now, discover your strengths” and the Strength Finder Gallop Assessment, I learned that my five main strengths are:- Input: Inquisitive, collector and interested in many things
- Learner: Love to learn and enjoy the process of learning more than the outcome.
- Intellection: Introspective and likes to think (with or without focus)- Strategic: See patterns in clutter to select the best
strategy- Context: Look to the past to understand the future
