I think I found my 3rd book!!
Now, discover your strengths is a book that I was given when I applied for the directors role @ NSYFC.I was asked to complete the "strengths finder" online test to find out what my major areas of strength were, and I have to say it was quite acurate. I obviously read the sections of the book about the strengths that it claimed that i possessed, but since then it has sat on my bookshelf gathering dust.
Now, whilst at the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit in October, Markus Buckingham (the author) did a session based on the findings of this book, and it really got me excited, so I've decided to dust down my copy and read it as my next book assignment. Should be interesting.
I'm also hoping to revisit the whole online test thing, as I reckon that the strengths I thought I had 3 years ago are probably quite different to the ones I have now. Anyway, I hope I haven't given too much away about the book in this entry, cos I'm really quite excited to see how my reading goes, and whether I come across anything I didn't expect.
Keep watching.

Well - how's it going, a log time since you blogged.
Anyway, what's the code for Strengthfinders?
Martin,
The strengthsfinder assesment requires a code that is in the back of the "now discover your strengths" book. Unfortunately there's no short cut - you'll need the book. Sorry.
