Achieve your personal excellence.
Our society recognizes that skillful management of resources like time and money can lead to a better life. At Positive Leadership, we believe that an individual’s talents are valuable resources that are just as important as time and money. Moreover, we’ve developed tools and techniques to help you manage this precious resource and wield it to your advantage in the workplace and beyond.
The purpose of the Talent2Strength (T2S) course is to help people identify and understand their talents and those of others, with the ultimate goal of helping individuals, teams and communities to thrive. Building from the highly-respected Gallup CliftonStrengths © assessment that reveals a person’s natural talents and cognitive-behavioral patterns, our T2S curriculum will help you take this baseline knowledge to the next level of meaningful application in your personal and professional life. At its heart, T2S is a developmental framework designed to help you discover and navigate the path to leading a strengths-based life.
