Leadership Skills Assessment Resources
My clients often ask me for recommendations on leadership and project management related resources. I will regularly update this page with resources and recommendations including books, YouTube videos, websites, and other relevant resources. Message me if you’re looking for a specific recommendation or topic.
As leaders, it is important that we regular reflect on our leadership abilities to ensure we remain effective, stay current and relevant. Understanding our strengths and challenges will provide us with information that allows us to leverage our strengths and resolve our weaknesses.

The StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment operates on the premise that we all have innate talents and strengths and instead of focusing on overcoming our weaknesses, we should focus on maximizing and developing our strengths. StrengthsFinder 2.0 is a tool for identifying our strengths and offers suggestions on how to enhance our natural strengths.

After completing the assessment, my top 3 strengths were Harmony, Developer, and Input.
Harmony is about ensuring harmony, balance, and peace; embracing differing opinions; and fostering inclusiveness.
Developers are passionate about developing other people’s skills, empathetic to other’s feelings, and passionate about motivating, mentoring and empowering others to be their best selves.
Input is about being inquisitive, craving knowledge, and sharing it with others.
What are your strengths? How can you leverage them to improve your leadership potential?
