Talents and Strengths

We all come into the world with many unique talents. Talents are the ways we naturally think, feel, and act.  Another word for talents might be gifts.

A strength is the ability to produce a positive outcome repeatedly when completing a certain task. A strength is made up of a talent combined with skills and knowledge.

Each of us achieves the best results when we work with our talents; therefore, it just makes sense to want to know what our talents are. How do you identify your talents? Go no further than WSU Career Services! For $18 and a few minutes of your time, you can take the StrengthsFinder instrument, which will identify your top five talents.

Knowledge of your top five talents will offer insight into who you are. Using that information, you can determine appropriate study techniques, what type of work environment would be best for you, and how get along with other people.

Rachel Gibson and Val Perkins just returned from a Strengths conference. They would be more than happy to talk talents and strengths with you. What are you waiting for? Call 978-3435 today and make arrangements to take StrengthsFinder.
