These top entrepreneurs and influencers lead through one simple thing, their Strengths. They focus their business and leadership practices on how they work most naturally. See how Michael Hyatt, Marie Forleo, Lewis Howes and Gary Vaynerchuk connect their work and lives to the Strengths paradigm.
MICHAEL HYATT
Founder & CEO | Michael Hyatt & Co.
Michael Hyatt is best known for being a “virtual mentor” in “personal development, leadership, productivity, and public influence.” He is also a well known author, corporate publisher, has a weekly podcast– he’s a definitely a man of diversified interests and talents! In his post “Are you operating in your Strengths Zone?“ Hyatt dives into his own Top 5 StrengthsFinder talent themes where he shares his personal takeaways and tips on how to operate in your own Strengths zone.
After reviewing the list, I think I have more alignment between my Strengths and my role than ever before.
MARIE FORLEO
Founder | Marie Forleo International, B-School & MarieTV
An insatiable curiosity about human potential is exactly what drives Marie Forleo to succeed in her entrepreneurial ventures. She has coined the term “Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur” due to her lack of conventionalism and her strive to be different. In one of her MarieTV episodes, “How to find your special gift, even if you don’t think you have one“, Forleo shares a Q&A about knowing and embracing your Strengths.
It made sense that if I was going to work that hard, I had to find something that really aligned with who I was as a human being.
LEWIS HOWES
Author & Entrepreneur | Host of The School of Greatness Podcast
From pro athlete to author to lifestyle entrepreneur, Lewis Howes has some amazing things to share about understanding and embracing your Strengths, no matter where you are in life. In a School of Greatness podcast episode, “Find Your Strengths“, Howes talks about what a Strength is and how important it is to invest your time in what gives you energy. Your Strengths can be a “force multiplier” for success.
One of the most important things you can discover is the inherent Strength that gives you energy when you utilize it.
GARY VAYNERCHUK
CEO | VaynerX
Gary Vaynerchuk totally and completely owns his brilliant Strengths. He talks a lot about EQ, or Emotional Intelligence, and what that means. A serial entrepreneur, best-selling author and family man, Vaynerchuck dives into the conversation of the importance of self-awareness in the episode “My in-depth look at Emotional Intelligence” from The #AskGaryVee Show. {Also check out this interview between Howes & Vaynerchuck for more awesome insights about living a Strengths-based life.}
You have to be self-aware and bet on your Strengths.
These influencers are inspiring!–for the peaks of their success and their insistence that their very best comes from their OWN strengths, not by trying to be just like some other successful entrepreneur out there.
If you want to follow in their footsteps, I am pretty confident that they would each say it starts with your OWN strengths–not modeling theirs. If you have yet to put words to YOUR most powerful strengths, you can discover your Strengths right here with Isogo.
