I found the Strengthfinder 2.0 survey and Strengthquest to be refreshing because it focuses on positive traits instead of negative traits(Clifton,Edward,& Schreiner,2006). This survey focuses in thirty-four themes of talents which can be develop into strength with training and education.* These themes can help me build on my talents while going through my courses of my degree to build up my strengths( Clifton,Edward,& Schreiner,2006).
My first talent is responsibility which means I take ownership of anything I commit to big or small( Clifton, Edward, & Schreiner, 2006).

That’s why I feel that strength based programs at companies, public schools, and colleges is very important.
