- Only 1 in 4 people have the opportunity to do what they do best every day
- Only 20 of U.S. workers think their jobs use their talents
Not surprisingly, 70% of workers in the United States are not as engaged as they would like to be with their passion and their careers.
There is a strong connection between who we are and what we do best. And what we do best and how we feel. And how we feel and how we perform……
- People who focus on their Strengths are 6x as likely to be engaged in their jobs
- People who focus on their Strengths are 3x as likely to report having an excellent quality of life

- Teams that receive Strengths feedback have 8.9% greater profitability.
The odds that someone shares the same Top 5 Signature Themes (Strengths) in the same order as you are roughly 1 in 33 million. That means you’re 33 times more special than 1 in a million!
Gallup has been studying human behavior for more than 75 years and the CliftonStrengths 34 survey (formerly StrengthsFinder) has been taken by over 18 million people globally and is grounded in more than 40 years of research.
The CliftonStrengths 34 Assessment supports individuals and teams in gaining a clear understanding of their unique talents. The survey reflects the presence of talent in 34 general areas or themes and roughly one in thirty-three million people have the same Signature Themes – or “top five” – as you. The research proves that people succeed when they focus on what they do best.
When people identify their unique talents and develop them into strengths, they perform better in their job and are happier and more engaged; they build better relationships and are a better teammate; they feel like they’re improving, every single day.
