Leveraging Your Strengths
“You can create an exciting, fun, engaging, and achievement-filled life for yourself, no matter who you are, where you are, or what you do. And once you’ve learned it for yourself, you can show your friends, family, workmates, kids, and even your worst enemy – if you have one! – how to do it for themselves”
A big thank you for Daria Williamson for joining me for this episode of the Managers Skills Corner podcast where we discuss leveraging strengths. Specifically, we discuss:
• The benefits of the strengths-based approach for individuals and for businesses
• How we identify our strengths and how can managers help their team members identify their strengths
• What should we do about our weaknesses and how to manage or assist team members with their weaknesses
• How strengths can boost career success
• Overcoming barriers and challenges
As a leader, manager, and coach, Daria has spent years developing a strengths-based approach to help her clients find clarity in their life and work. She approaches leadership from the lens of positive psychology. By digging into a person’s strengths and weaknesses, they can uncover what really makes them tick. Her unique structure helps people uncover how to achieve their goals, live more fully, and align their work with their passion.
Daria created the highly successful Strengths Deck Cards and Matrix and has used them to help countless professionals realign their work lives for the better. In February 2023, she published her book ‘Unleash Your Awesome’, which brings together practical advice and activities to help people go from bored and stressed to empowered and motivated.
Daria believes that working hard doesn’t have to feel like hard work – and that everyone has the capacity to leverage their strengths and neutralise their weaknesses to move forward. Her expertise is in navigating that balance and helping people put it to practice. Find out more https://dariawilliamson.com/
