There are tons of great answers to this question, but let’s start with the basics:

• CliftonStrengths® is the only data-backed assessment there is and is based on 50 years of research and positive psychology.

• This methodology was developed by Gallup — a world-leading research company.

• CliftonStrengths® has been embraced by over 25 million people looking to thrive in life, or within their companies — and is currently employed by more than 90% of Fortune 500 companies.

• With more than 25 million data points in over 100 countries around the world, CliftonStrengths® is backed by more evidence than any similar assessment or its associated methodology.

• Companies that apply CliftonStrengths® report increased productivity, sales, profit, and engagement within their employees.

This totally depends! Results can be immediate or take a bit of time depending on the individual or team taking part in the CliftonStrengths® assessment and learning the attached methodology.

Factors that come into play include but are not limited to: 

• Self-awareness

• Reflection

• Processing

• Honesty

• Investment

• Attitude

For teams, it’s also important to note that best results are always achieved when the manager or champion is dedicated to understanding and leveraging the system. The stronger your leader’s commitment, the sooner the team will see benefits and uncover their new reality.

For a workshop, you’ll need a minimum of two participants. If you’re looking to roll CliftonStrengths® and Reframed Coaching out to an entire organization, I recommend a phased approach, moving through teams by function or working group. For example, all executives might go first, everyone in accounting second, and so on.

It’s good to be skeptical — but I think you’ll find the numbers speak for themselves! By applying CliftonStrengths® methodology, teams see an average of:

• 7.8 - 12.5% increase in productivity

• 10.3 - 19.3% increase in sales

• 14.4 - 29.4% increase in profit

• 9 - 15% increase in team engagement

• 26 - 71.8 pts decrease in turnover

Even better — folks at companies that use this game-changing system are six times more likely to be engaged at their jobs, three times as likely to report high quality of life, and six times as likely to strongly agree that they have the opportunity to do what they do best every day.

Still not convinced? Perhaps this will entice you further. Members of teams that employ CliftonStrengths® also:

• Have a better understanding of who to partner with

• Build awareness of themselves and others

• Show improved people management 

• Improve communication

• Resolve conflicts faster

• Give easier feedback
