“Rose, what an amazing gift! I really found your insights helpful and liberating. Specifically, I have not allowed reading to be a part of my writing time. But, I’m so appreciative of this understanding of my strengths which allows me to build in reading and thinking with my writing time. Thank you!!” — Associate Professor

FAQ
Q: What’s the difference between a strength and a superpower?
A: “Strength” is the official language Gallup uses to describe what happens when you hone your natural talents by learning about and practicing them. While I often use the two terms interchangeably, superpower evokes something special that very few others possess. It’s much more delicious, too.
Q: Why should I bother with the assessment? Isn’t it a standardized test?
A: You can read all about the test design here. As with all tests, the problem with it is how you use it, not necessarily the test itself. We each have unique gifts and talents that we often cannot see ourselves—they only become obvious when you find out that others do not have them. Once you realize you have this superpower, you can embrace it and embrace your unique writing process. Your writing process can then become more enjoyable because you’re no longer working against yourself.
Q: What do you bring as the facilitator?
A: I’m an academic and fiction writer and a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach. As someone high in Individualization, I love focusing on what makes people tick! As a former chair and professor, I love the chance to focus on how professors can grow, rather than on whether they published a gazillion articles last year.
Q: Why do you want my top 10 strengths? I thought we’d only use the top 5.
A: A Gallup trainer described using your top 5 strengths as akin to building a house with one hand behind your back. You can do it, but it would be a lot easier with two hands. I find that the complete picture of your superpowers emerges when you look at your top 10, or even your top 15.
Q: What are your strengths?
A: Thanks for asking! Here are my top 10 in order: Achiever | Connectedness | Relator | Learner | Individualization | Empathy | Developer | Intellection | Discipline | Positivity.
