The Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment is a research-based tool that helps individuals identify their top natural talents across 34 themes. Instead of focusing on fixing weaknesses, it reveals what you naturally do best—so you can build on those strengths to improve your performance, relationships, and well-being. Based on decades of psychological research, the assessment offers personalized insight into how you think, feel, and work, and provides practical ways to apply your strengths in both personal and professional settings.
