StrengthsFinder is the most powerful and dynamic tool I know of to bring immediate, positive impact to a team.

As I have lead team workshops over the past several years, I never tire of the ah-ha moments.

Moments that have the power to change the dynamics of a team for good. Moments that allow managers to feel equipped and effective in ways they have never felt before.

Managers move from feeling like the over-taxed, inadequate, obligatory boss to the appreciated, confident and effective leader, who leads a highly functional team that likes coming to work and getting the job done.

Teams move from groups of individuals who are hiding their weaknesses and getting on each other’s nerves to teams who are greater together than the sum of their parts, as they turn frustration to appreciation, and partner in the most mind-bogglingly fulfilling and simple ways.

The work goes way beyond a half or full day workshop, and into the day-in and day-out moments that make up a work and team environment.

In fact, one of my (star!) clients has been using Isogo TV Episodes to help facilitate the growth of their Strengths-based culture—infusing regular, Strengths-perspective and useful application into our ever-forgetful and busy work schedules.

That very move spawned the idea to gather all the relevant Isogo TV episodes into one place.
