Listen "#309 Fix yourself?"
Episode Synopsis
Shifting from fixing weaknesses to leveraging strengths creates more sustainable growth and fulfillment. Research shows the greatest performance gains come when we build on existing capabilities rather than trying to repair flaws.• True strengths aren't just skills but activities that provide sustainable enthusiasm• Most managers instinctively focus development on struggling employees, but data shows investing in strengths produces better results• High performers aren't balanced at everything—they're exceptional at specific things• The difference between good and great is often depth, not breadth• Well-roundedness is overrated; targeted excellence with complementary teams is more effective• Identify what energizes you, not just what you're competent atPause and ask yourself: What strength have you been underusing, and how can you lean into it with intention this week? What growth efforts might you need to abandon? Visit growthinstigators.com to schedule a call about unlocking your team's strengths and structuring around them.https://growthinstigators.com/
