With real-world examples and easy-to-use tools, The Strengths Paradox shows you how to:Identify and unlock employee potential; recognize when one of your own or a team member's strengths has become a stumbling block; prevent unproductive conflict; turn constructive friction into creative fuel; and integrate strengths-based leadership into your talent management system. If you're a leader responsible for outcomes and running out of capacity, The Strengths Paradox provides a roadmap and toolkit for using your strengths intentionally and effectively to maximize both team effectiveness and team member well-being.
