How Strengths have helped my coachees
CEO of Langley Group
As someone who manages a team of coaches and trains coaches globally, the Strengths Profile is an exceptional value tool. The Profile is highly insightful for your coachee, helping them identify how their strengths play out every day, as well as identifying ways strengths can assist with weaknesses or activities they do not enjoy at work. I love that it is not a tool that puts people in a box, but it is dynamic and helps people show up as the best version of themselves.
