Strength Finders Results

This test was made up ofabout a hundred questions which we completed in a specific time, online. Our results we sent to a lady named Kara Thompson, a YWAMer based in Las Vegas. She complied our results and came to Seattle to discuss the results. We disussed what they meant for us as individuals and also for us as a group.

It was a great tool for us to understand ourselves and oneanother better.

Here are my top five strengths, as identified though this and a short explanation of them,

1.DEVELOPER - Realising potential in others

-You notice when my associates grow and tell them specifically
-You make a point of mentoring and developing others
