Features: This book elaborates on the concepts of work and management. Although these ideas are simple, they are highly revolutionary. They refer to: recognizing your strengths and fully leveraging them; while simultaneously identifying your weaknesses and ceasing to engage in them. Based on 40 years of continuous research on outstanding companies such as Federal Express, Prudential Life, and Disney Development Company, this book finally brings to life the dynamic and inspiring aspects of Psychology of Achievement, thereby motivating countless business professionals, managers, and individuals to pursue greater excellence. As the founder and chairman of Gallup, one of the top consulting firms in the U.S., and as a best-selling author and entrepreneur, Paula Nelson shares with you how to enhance productivity, make more effective decisions, and inspire others to perform at their best. Their "Strengths Theory" is a key element—a powerful concept that profoundly challenges long-held misconceptions about success and clearly explains why "loving what you do and doing what you love" is the secret to achieving peak performance. Once you learn to soar on your strengths, you will discover the joy of pursuing excellence. This is a groundbreaking book that not only captivates and inspires you but also validates you in its pages; it will also change the way you approach your company, career, and future.
