CliftonStrengths (formerly Strengths Finder)
I’ve spent the week attending a course to obtain my certification as a CliftonStrengths Coach. This has been a super enjoyable (albeit, very brain heavy) week. I took the assessment back in 2010 and have been aware of my strengths on a peripheral level, but this week has been very helpful in doing the deep dive on these, as well as learning how to best help others with this. If you’re curious, here are my Top 5 strengths:
Maximizer
Learner
Communication
Empathy
Connectedness
If you haven’t taken the assessment, I highly recommend it. Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any questions!
Global Leadership Summit 2023
I’ve been attending the Global Leadership Summit (GLS) for the better part of 10 years. Simply put, it’s the best leadership conference I know of. It’s jam-packed with speakers, and the caliber of speakers is unmatched. Each of the speakers could keynote their own conference.
The conference is this week (8.3 and 8.4), but you may consider this for your calendar next year. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Drone Photo Awards 2023
I came across this site recently and it’s got a great collection of photos taken with a drone. Some amazing work here!
20 Amazing Health Facts
Did you know that drinking at least five glasses of water a day can reduce your chances of suffering from a heart attack by 40%? How about between 2000 and 2015, the average global life expectancy increased by five years? I sure didn’t! This site has those two facts, plus 18 others worth considering.
