Gallup's CliftonStrengths is a psychometric assessment that measures cognitive patterns to help individuals identify, understand, and maximize their strengths, highlighting their greatest potential. As the leading assessment tool used by 90% of Fortune 500 companies, CliftonStrengths empowers individuals to harness their unique talents for personal growth, high-performing teams, and effective leadership.
A "strength" is an "ability to consistently provide near-perfect performance of a talent." A talent is a naturally recurring pattern of thought, feeling and behavior that can be productively applied.
