Where to start?Find your strengths!Are you an interpreter? An
Innovator? An Encourager? Analytic? A mediator?Can you build
relationships among your team? Can you create a positive
relationship among your team?Let your team know your strengths. Ask
for theirs. Dont stop there! Seek to find other strengths of your
team and yourself.
Every one of us has identifiable leadership strengths, areas in
which we excel or thrive. But we often fail to recognize those
strengths. As a result, many times our strengths are used
ineffectively or not at all. Peter Northouse
