I am not holding up security to tweet this .... Ummmm #NatCon16 @mwbuckingham is amazing

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

Now the tool: a situational assessment tool where the strengths answer is not obvious.

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

Themes from #NatCon16: Stories matter. Telling hard truths matters. Using your voice to advocate matters. Show up & speak up.

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

Weaknesses. You are a grownup. You have them. Let’s use the words. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

You don’t have strengths AND areas of opportunity. Your strengths ARE your areas of opportunity. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

This comes to work leadership. Any performance review is 3 minutes strengths and 57 minutes weakness. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

Most conversations around dinner tables are about our kids failings. It bleeds into life and work. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

Maybe we as parents should have a teacher’s willingness to look for strengths in our children. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Olivia Watkins Hwang @Sweet_Olive]

We care for youth w/a strengths-based approach. We need to be strengths-based with our employee teams too. #NatCon16 Marcus Buckingham

.@learndhappiness Same here!!! Great talk on becoming a more effective leader. @mwbuckingham #NatCon16 @nationalcouncil

[Sally Spencer-Thomas @sspencerthomas]

We are far too focused on trying to fix weaknesses. Like trying to learn to write w your non-dominant hand #NatCon16

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

@mwbuckingham is getting “I’ve been there” laughs from every parent in the room with story about seeing kids’ art at school. #NatCon16 #WGS1

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

If you don’t know that what that fear of weakness feels like, just have a child. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

We are more frightened of our weaknesses than we are comfortable celebrating our strengths. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

People you are hiring think they need to fix weakness to do better. You need to help shift paradigm. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham

"Get your strengths together and make the weaknesses irrelevant". @nationalcouncil @marcusbuckingha #NatCon16

[Ann Becker-Schutte @ABeckerSchutte]

We live in a world that has pathologized ourselves. We are more fascinated by what goes wrong than right. #NatCon16 #WGS1 @mwbuckingham
