Everyone has his or her innate talents and strengths, but not everyone is aware of what their strengths are or how to best utilize them.

“Everyone has his or her innate talents.”

In this article, we will discuss the three reasons how strengths coaching can help boost your performance at work.

1. Strength coaching identifies your innate talents and potential for future growth.

Strengths coaching helps you pinpoint your strengths and talents so that you can use this insight and self-reflection to maximize your own potential.

For example, if you discover that you have strong strengths under the “Communicator Themes”, then your strengths coach can help guide you towards positions or projects that emphasize public speaking and presentations. By pushing forward your natural talents, you will feel more engaged with your work, reach more goals, and elicit more positive feedback from your supervisor.

That being said, when you find meaning in your work, you will naturally perform with more purpose in mind rather than focusing just on how many hours of work there are left.

2. Strengths coaching improves your teamwork with others.

Using mindset strategies, a strengths coach can help you better work with others to tackle team-specific challenges.

For example, a strengths coach can work individually with you and your team members to increase everyone’s self awareness and to help strategize work goals. By helping each team member understand his or her strengths as well as those of the other team members, this can improve and build stronger relationships within the team.

3. Strengths coaching empowers you to communicate with your manager.

By learning a strengths-based language, you can have a conversation with your manager and communicate to him or her about your strengths and needs in the workplace. By knowing what you are good at professionally, you can better discuss and negotiate tasks and projects that suit your strengths and innate preferences.
