When I entered the talent development field, I had no idea I would get to do so much interesting work. Armed with a master's in English lit and a passion for facilitation, I started my career as a trainer in a call center. Next came instructional design, leadership development, consulting, program management, communications, strategy work, and more. I've loved it all and have learned that I thrive when I have 2 things in my work: variety and big challenges. Anyone who has become a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach will tell you it’s a lengthy process...and "mastering" Strengths is definitely a big challenge.Back in 2014 when I was certified, the first step was to attend a five-day class. I attended in Omaha, Nebraska, the headquarters of CliftonStrengths (a.k.a., StrengthsFinder). We had homework every night. Lots of homework.And then? Well, after completing the course and the application process, you take a lengthy timed exam and coach 6 people on their CliftonStrengths results. Next, those 6 people must submit evaluations of your coaching skills to Gallup. Then, finally, IF you receive acceptable evaluation scores…congratulations! You’re a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach! For 2 years. To maintain your certification, you must demonstrate your mastery of CliftonStrengths via a recertification process every 2 years. It's different every time and always includes an exam - an exam that you only get 2 chances to pass. Full disclosure: I thought my first recertification would be a “gimme” so I skimmed the materials and took the exam. I failed. Gulp. Thankfully, I studied and passed on my second (and final) attempt. More full disclosure: I appreciate Gallup’s rigorous process. It means those of us who continue to be recertified are truly committed to helping people leverage their unique talents. Here are just a few things I've seen people experience after participating in the CliftonStrengths workshops/coaching sessions I've led: -Increased clarity about who you are (and who you are NOT)-Enhanced engagement at work (and in life)-A deeper understanding of the environments where your Strengths will flourish…and those where they'll languish-Noticeably improved team communication, collaboration, and productivity I've been a talent development professional since the 20th century, and I use CliftonStrengths to help individuals, leaders, and teams discover, lean into, and maximize their unique talents. Yes, that last sentence proudly includes the Oxford comma. Twice. ;)
