Why focus on your gifts using a gifts coach?
"A coach Helps the eye see what can't be seen, the ear what can't be heard, and the mind process what can't be processed." Mark Myette
We are like thumbprints - each different in our own way!
Based on the assessment tools used, including CliftonStrengths, and the 15+ million in more than 50 countries who have taken it, we know this: WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT. We each have gifts and the combination of gifts that make us unique.
Fact: the likelihood that two people have the same 5 gifts, in ANY order, is 1 in 278,256! (Gallup)
Fact: the likelihood that two people have the same 5 gifts, in the SAME order, is 1 in 33.4 million! (Gallup)
Which is why, we all need a coach!
Why do you need a coach? Having a certified gifts (AKA "strengths") coach help you process / interpret the results is critical. If not, the assessment and its impact will be greatly diminished!
Whether you are a caring parent wanting the best for your child as they "find their purpose and meaning"; a once loyal employee now in transition; a manger of a dysfunctional team; a leader of a company challenged to tap into their employees' potential; a "wantrepreneur" in the early phases of discernment as to if doing something entrepreneurial makes sense for them and their family; a person approaching retirement, wondering how they can spend their "next phase" full of contentment; or, a founder of company wanting to have their team maximizing their gifts - we all need a coach!
To complicate matters, the dynamics in our society and economy are forcing us to come to clarity at our core. What are YOUR gifts? How are those gifts "showing up"? A certified gifts coach can help you show up as your authentic self.
Why is it important?
- College-bound students are challenged to select a college and once there, struggle to select a major that connects with who they are as a person.
- Once secondary education is complete, the graduates enter the workforce wanting different things for themselves and from their employers.
- Some of those same students have no intention of working for someone else and desire to chart their own course on the sea of entrepreneurship.
- In the workforce, many are underemployed or "mis-employed". (Gallup)
- Many individuals contemplate their meaning. Their purpose. They wonder "How Did I Get Here?"
- Leaders and managers are challenged to connect and engage their teams. (SEE below)
- For those currently working, the numbers are daunting:
o 66%+ are disengaged. (Gallup)
o 20% wish harm for the company for whom they work. (Gallup)
- For those approaching retirement years, they wonder how they can maximize their next phase - 50%+ have that desire. (Sloan Center For Aging)
- Entrepreneurs are building teams and have a great opportunity to take advantage of the tremendous "professional capital" that exists and integrate the talent in their team while being strategic in assigning / delegating roles and responsibilities based on their dominant entrepreneurial talents.
- For those starting a business, they do so knowing, or not knowing, a majority of businesses that start will be out of business within 5 years of start-up. (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
All the while, society and the economy are going through it's own evolution...
- The economy continues to recover...yet, the recovery is different than the past.
- Although the reported unemployment rate is reported @ ~5+% The actual number is 10+% (due to those no longer being tracked). (CNBC)
- The middle class is now the minority. (Pew Research Center)
- 45.3% of Americans do not pay Federal Tax. (Tax Policy Center)
- Depression, addiction, and suicide are climbing to near-epidemic numbers. (CDC)
So, no surprise, the above realities suggest people are "rudderless ships" in a "rough sea". Possibly, in a place where they don't want to be or don't feel their gifts are being maximized. Some want to stay in their current industry, company, or, role. They and their company should look to see how they can optimize their level of contentment and performance by identifying / verifying how the job can be best aligned with their gifts.
