IN THIS LESSON

In stage 1 we seek to help you find out who you really are by looking at yourself through 5 different lenses:

  • What are your superpowers (strengths) - follow links in buttons below

  • Where you play best (environments) - download excel file

  • With whom (people) - download excel file

  • To serve what purpose (career anchors) - download excel file

  • How you navigate (situational leadership) - download excel file

There are also PDF prep exercises to download if you want to do some reflection about where you are now and the journey you’ve been on. Finally there’s an practical skills assessment exercise in the additional resources section.

Starting with your strengths, choose one of 3 options provided with link buttons below. Clifton Strengths is the best known but the most expensive at $60. High5 and Via are alternatives and both have free summary versions which you should use to put in your summary chart at the end of Stage 1.* If you want to access full reports there are paid versions.

*At the end, use the summary chart template to condense your findings from all 5 exercises into a single sheet which will be a useful reference point for looking at options in Stage 2.
