It's rare for me to post about work on a weekend. It's also unusual for me to post about my faith in the context of my work. But this weekend is different.
This weekend, as a Christian (Episcopalian), I mourn and then celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus. Yesterday was Good Friday, today is Holy Saturday, tomorrow is Easter Sunday. What struck me this year, in light of COVID-19 pandemic & our "new world of work" is that we are experiencing a similar progression. Let me explain... What the 34 CliftonStrengths themes need communicated. By Chad T. Ahern ![]() "Communicate. Communicate. Communicate" is typical advice for any team seeking to perform. Information needs to be shared, opinions considered, and final decisions must be implemented. But these are not typical times. With the Coronavirus global pandemic pushing nearly everyone to implement remote work practices, communicating across cities, states, and countries via email, phone and video conferencing is more critical now than ever. So how do you make sure your communications are effective as possible and keep your employees engaged in their work? One way is to share information in ways that most align with your teammates talents. Here I'm referring to the 34 talent themes outlined by Gallup, Inc. that can be discovered through the CliftonStrengths assessment. By Chad T. Ahern
To help you better appreciate those around you, here is a list of how you might see each of the 34 CliftonStrenths talent themes show up in tomorrow's festivities.
By Chad T. Ahern ![]() During a recent workshop for the 2020 Class of Leadership Champlain, I had - for the first time - every CliftonStrengths theme represented in the room. The experience got me thinking about how people with each theme might be drawn to taking the CliftonStrengths assessment in the first place. |
