SHARED THEME DESCRIPTION
People who are especially talented in the Empathy theme can sense the feelings of other people by
imagining themselves in others’ lives or others’ situations.
YOUR PERSONALIZED STRENGTHS INSIGHTS

What makes you stand out?
By nature, you naturally sense when a person can benefit from your support, kind words, or thoughtful
deeds. Perhaps you have an ability to lift certain people’s sagging spirits by what you do or say. In the
process, you might enhance some individuals’ self-confidence enough that they dare to acquire knowledge,
gain new skills, or broaden their experiences. It’s very likely that you automatically sense which people
admire you and are devoted to you. You also are keenly aware of those who have little fondness for you.
Driven by your talents, you might find that people tell you their innermost thoughts or feelings. Perhaps
they know you will accept them without judging what they say. You may like knowing that certain
individuals depend on you to listen. Instinctively, you might work persistently to lift people’s spirits. Perhaps
you naturally see the good in individuals or situations. Maybe this approach allows you to embrace rather
than resist life’s surprises, disappointments, opportunities, or successes. Chances are good that you may
feel honored when specific individuals trust you enough to share their innermost thoughts and feelings.
Perhaps you understand that the act of listening is both helpful and healing.
Questions
1. As you read your personalized strengths insights, what words, phrases, or lines stand out to you?
2. Out of all the talents in this insight, what would you like for others to see most in you?

Restorative
People who are especially talented in the Restorative theme are adept at dealing with problems. They are
good at figuring out what is wrong and resolving it.

Instinctively, you typically decide what is to be done. You are as comfortable issuing orders as you are
making demands. Your bold and confident style allows you to gain and maintain control over people,
circumstances, timetables, plans, or material resources. Chances are good that you wage an ongoing
battle to enhance your ability to stick with a task for an extended period of time. You frequently wish you
were more single-minded and less prone to distractions. Interruptions can pull you way off course. You
probably are determined to overcome these problems. This explains why you continually search for and
test methods to increase the amount of time you can concentrate on one thing. It’s very likely that you
usually have more innovative ideas or original suggestions than others in the group. You are delighted to
participate in forums where you can present your creative concepts. Others are likely to share your desire
to improve things. This explains why many individuals welcome your suggestions. By nature, you see
yourself as a fine trainer and instructor. You naturally seek new and better ways to broaden the knowledge
base and skills of those you educate. You tend to help your students — the young and the not-so-young —
conquer their weaknesses and overcome their failures. Driven by your talents, you give your full attention
to performing and thinking about one task at a time. When you discover something you want to perfect or
do better, you dedicate your mental and physical energy to it.
Questions

Ideation
People who are especially talented in the Ideation theme are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find
connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.

It’s very likely that you might take a creative route to your desired objective. Rather than have just one goal
to consider, periodically you explore several alternatives. To some degree, you value innovation. To some
degree, you dare to think differently. Timelines and time controls occasionally stifle your creativity. Perhaps
you let the thinking process move at its own pace. Instinctively, you occasionally contrive innovative ideas.
Perhaps the art of invention stimulates your mind. You may spring from one original thought to an entirely
different one. Now and then, you find ways to link two or more unique concepts. Because of your strengths,
you may like to take apart, then study processes, ideas, problems, solutions, mechanisms, or plans.
Perhaps examining the pieces and parts of things appeals to your logic. Driven by your talents, you now
and then are called upon by your coworkers, teammates, classmates, or family members to help them do
things differently. Perhaps they count on you to generate ideas for novel tasks, unusual assignments, out-
of-the-ordinary trips, or original entertainment. Chances are good that you immediately know without
resorting to reason what people think about you. The impressions they have of you can contribute to your
complete success or utter failure. Understandably, the views of individuals often influence your words and
deeds.
Questions

Adaptability
People who are especially talented in the Adaptability theme prefer to “go with the flow.” They tend to be
“now” people who take things as they come and discover the future one day at a time.

Because of your strengths, you are filled with awe by beauty in the world, in people, and in the cosmos.
Whether you gaze upon nature’s wonders or marvel at the work of human hands, you are filled with
wonder. You can suddenly stop what you are doing to watch a sunset, listen to the rustle of leaves, stand
before a work of art, hear a piece of music, look through a telescope, or hold a newborn child. You
experience beauty at a level many people cannot imagine. Once the moment has passed, you can still
picture the scene or hear the sound in your memory. Driven by your talents, you realize that each day
offers its own surprises. You trust you can handle whatever occurs. Even when you do not know exactly
what to do, you probably know someone who does. You have an uncanny ability to easily and
cooperatively proceed in the direction in which other people and processes are moving. By nature, you
allow your life to unfold naturally. You trust you will find your path as it evolves. You resist being tied to
predetermined plans and standardized systems. You prefer to experience life in the moment. You are
eager to see where it takes you. Chances are good that you occasionally rely on your intuition to make the
right decisions as events unfold. Instinctively, you surround yourself with lovely things. These have the
power to soothe, calm, energize, and inspire you. The arts or nature itself enhances your sense of well-
being. You probably pay attention to your environment because you choose to live each moment to its
fullest.
Questions

Developer
People who are especially talented in the Developer theme recognize and cultivate the potential in others.
They spot the signs of each small improvement and derive satisfaction from these improvements.

It’s very likely that you may embolden some people so they begin believing in themselves. Perhaps you
help them realize certain things they can accomplish in the future. Sometimes you remind them about
certain things they already do well. Driven by your talents, you occasionally inspire people to join in
activities, tournaments, games, matches, or contests for the simple joy of it. Maybe you downplay who wins
first place or is named the Most Valuable Player. By nature, you occasionally include newcomers or
outsiders in your activities. Maybe you boost their confidence by appreciating their talents or unique
perspectives. Perhaps you delight in the fact that they are different from everyone else you know. Because
of your strengths, you sense a person’s emotional state moment by moment. You automatically tune in to
another’s feelings, thoughts, and needs. Usually you gain valuable insights. These discoveries prompt you
to acknowledge what the individual has done well. You pay attention to the minor, not just the major,
progress someone makes. As a result, you often accelerate a person’s growth as a human being and as a
professional. Chances are good that you frequently express your appreciation of possibility thinkers. Why?
They create verbal pictures of the future that allow you to envision what is possible.
