Synopsis
DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO BEST EVERY DAY?
Chances are, you don’t. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.
To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced StrengthsFinder in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions discover their top five talents.
In StrengthsFinder 2.0, Gallup unveils the new and improved version of its popular online assessment. With hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, StrengthsFinder 2.0 will change the way you look at yourself—and the world—forever.

December 06, 2009: What a disappointment this book was. The topic is wonderful; the idea of finding out what you are strong at is an eye opening journey. I recommend "Now, Discover Your Strengths" by Buckingham to find out about yourself. This book promises to build on Buckingham's book, but it fails miserably: it's a watered-down version; for example, Buckingham's book covers in great detail how we are formed by our environment. This merely glosses over the topic; in fact, I felt like most of the book was copied and pasted: it's like a "Cliff Notes" version of "Now, Discover Your Strengths." The online test is almost the same for both books, e.g., they are both from Gallup.
So, boooo Tom Rath. I read this book in one hour (after reading the other), and I felt cheated.Annoying marketing ployby jc8

November 16, 2009: The book has really no use other than getting the code for the strengths finder test. All of the information is available online AFTER you pay for the book and codes are not available unless you buy the book. I threw my book in the garbage after I used the code.
