If you haven't read any of Marcus's books, you must start. I started with StandoutStandout (International Edition): The Groundbreaking New Strengths Assessment from the Leader of the Strengths Revolution In this book Marcus shares with you information on how to utilize your strengths based on an assessment of what you would do, so it really identifies who you are and then provides information on how you can become better at who you already are, magnificent concept. It makes you the most authetic you can be and strengthens you at the same time. Loved this book and then I had to start from the beginning and read all his books from First, break all the rules through to Standout once again. Loved what I learned about me and am now sharing it with all those I can help benefit from the wisdom. Imagine this fast paced world would slow down if we were all playing to our strengths. Thanks Marcus.

Everyone at my office did the Standout strengths assessment as it was surprisingly inaccurate. There is not enough individualization and with only 9 categories not helpful when looking at a working team. Work needs to be done on this assessment and especially with the results which in the present form is word for word what is in the book with the exception of the joint assessment of the top two. Overall - there are many better assessments out there which would be more helpful to a working team.

I had heard Marcus Buckingham speak at an event and after hearing his passion about his product, decided to get this book. I could hardly wait for it to arrive (so good thing Amazon is quick)! The evaluation process is a little different from others that I have participated in, in the past. You are timed on each answer, so you have to think quick, but this is aimed at you choosing the truest answer to what you would actually do.
I really appreciated the depth of the report in revealing what the traits I found to be my strengths were and when reviewing it with my spouse, after both doing the evaluation, we found it to be pretty spot on.
I like the theory, learned a lot and I hope to see more come out of this from MB in the future. Check it out!
