Consider how contact lenses help us see the world more clearly. Our combination of talent strengths is like those lenses altering how we see the world around us. These talents tend to come so naturally that we don’t think about it; they are automatic. At our best, we are energized and fulfilled. At our worst, we are depleted and de-energized.
But it’s not enough to know our strengths. We must value our contributions and what others can count on us for. It’s important to understand what conditions, through relationships and tasks, our strengths need to thrive. As leaders, we must also be aware of the strengths of those we lead and collaborate with. Rooted in positive psychology and neuroscience, this knowledge helps us to bring out the best in ourselves and others, maximize productivity and innovation, and foster well-being.
Learning Objectives
• Introduce a preliminary understanding of your Top 5 strengths' role in the unique value each of us brings.
• Raise self-awareness, and “other awareness,” by focusing on what’s right, rather than fixating on what’s wrong.
• How overuse (or underuse) of our top strengths leads to our biggest weaknesses.
SPEAKER BIO:
Amy A. Kessler is in her element when she’s connecting with people, telling stories, and sharing fascinating insights. She has a natural gift for making others feel engaged, appreciated, and entertained all at once. Her passion for creating a sense of belonging stems from her deep belief in the power of CliftonStrengths, which highlights the unique contributions we each bring to our teams, clients, and those we lead. For Kessler, no challenge is too great—there’s always a way forward, and she’s ready to find it.
With over three decades of experience in the corporate world, Kessler’s been captivated by what makes people not just successful leaders, but truly fulfilled in life. She spent the early part of her career in advertising, helping major brands like Gatorade and Miller Brewing Company connect with U.S. Hispanic audiences. Along the way, she earned two coaching certifications— Certified People Acuity Guide and Strengths Strategy Certified Specialist—and has made it her mission to help others discover the ease and immense value of working with a top-notch executive coach. A proud graduate of the University of Oklahoma, she’s a firm believer in the lifelong power of learning and growth.
Recognizing the need for a single, reliable source of vetted top-tier coaches who share a unified approach, Kessler founded Potentia Coaches. Busy leaders turn to her when they need to be paired with the ideal coach—someone who can guide them or their teams to success. Potentia offers a global cadre of strengths-based executive coaches, eliminating the headache of trying to find the perfect fit. Amy doesn’t just make the connection; she ensures the coaching relationship is fruitful and enriching. “Potentia,” rooted in Latin, speaks to potential, strength, and power—the key ingredients, in Kessler’s view, for fulfillment both at work and in life.
