 Goof buy, good investment! Nov 20, 2009
Great book! Definitely a must read for people wanting to change career or even their personal lifestyle!
 Too generic, too vague Nov 19, 2009
I got this book from a colleague, who really wanted me to take the online test. So I entered the code from the book and answered the 180 or so questions, only to find the results to be rather useless.
The questions are of the "strongly agree-disagree" type, which is fine as long as you have a real choice. But frequently the opposites were no true opposites at all; a lot of them were rewordings of the same answer, defeating their purpose.
After filling in the test I received a top-5 of my strengths, which lean heavily on the "Barnum-effect", i.e. most people with vastly differing backgrounds will still be able to recognize themselves in the statements. This is heightened by the extremely optimistic wording; who wouldn't like to be told they are smart, critical, hard-working or creative? In that it highly resembles other personality-assessment methods, such as Myers-Briggs or Enneagrams, which are similarly vague and unhelpful.
I read some of the other descriptions in the book and found that a lot of them fit me even better than the five I got. I especially wonder why "analytical" is not in my top-5, since I am well-known for my tendency to debunk arguments, always trying to find the truth behind statements--much as I am doing right now.
The worst part, of course, is that you have to cough up $550 to get the results of the other 29 strengths, which labels this whole operation as a scheme to lift your purse.
In short: don't waste your time and money.
Strengthfinder is excellent Nov 16, 2009
Over 120 people in our church have used this. It has been an eye opener for so many. Really really helpful for people to discover, name and work with their talents. Very simple to use.
Great for Self Awareness Nov 09, 2009
This book is fantastic if you have been wondering about where to focus attention in your life. If you have ever wondered what your real strengths are, this will get you there and show you steps on how to improve and focus on those things.

The book was fine.........the problem was there was an access code needed to use the book. It was not included....not a very good way to do business.........Dan Smith 206 322-0617
