This article explains what the CliftonStrengths® assessment measures and how it helps you understand and apply your natural talents.
The CliftonStrengths assessment measures your natural patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior — your talents. These talents are organized into 34 themes, which represent the most common ways people naturally think and act to achieve success.
Your talents form the foundation for developing strengths — the ability to consistently produce near-perfect performance in a specific activity.
Understanding Your Results
When you complete the assessment, you’ll receive personalized CliftonStrengths reports that describe your unique combination of themes.
These reports help you:
Understand what you naturally do best
Identify opportunities to develop your talents into strengths
Apply your strengths to achieve greater success in work and life
Why It Matters
Gallup designed the CliftonStrengths assessment and reports to help you build greater self-awareness and intentionally use your strengths to reach your goals.
By focusing on what you do best, you can improve your performance, relationships, and overall wellbeing.
