SHARED THEME DESCRIPTION

People who are especially talented in the Learner theme have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. In particular, the process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites them.

YOUR PERSONALIZED STRENGTHS INSIGHTS

What makes you stand out?

Chances are good that you concentrate for extended periods of time. This is one reason why you ultimately master skills and grasp concepts. Instinctively, you have an insatiable — that is, incapable of being satisfied — appetite for information. Armed with newly acquired facts and skills, you routinely pinpoint areas where you need to make upgrades for the sake of efficiency. In the process, you probably discover ideas and techniques to do something you already do quite well even better. Driven by your talents, you aim to lead a big organization one day. You invest time gathering information about the responsibilities of the top position. In essence, you become a student of the job as well as the institution’s opportunities, problems, challenges, shortcomings, or resources. Methodically, you acquire the knowledge and skills needed to apply for this role when it becomes available. You are determined that your credentials will outshine everyone else’s. Because of your strengths, you ponder your decisions rather than react without thinking through things. You weigh the possible ramifications, consequences, outcomes, and effects. You aim to understand the basic “whys” and “hows” of a situation, problem, or opportunity. People trust you to be cautious. They expect you to raise important issues that require further consideration. By nature, you provide your teammates with a logical perspective on things. You often show your partners how one action or even a single comment caused something unexpected to occur. Experience probably is one of your best teachers. This explains why you do not automatically orchestrate an event, plan a schedule, or allocate resources the same way you did the last time. You realize every situation is unique.

You strive to do more and more of it each day. It’s very likely that you do much more than just try to live up to your commitments. You persist working until you can deliver on your promises.

Input

SHARED THEME DESCRIPTION

People who are especially talented in the Input theme have a craving to know more. Often they like to collect and archive all kinds of information.

YOUR PERSONALIZED STRENGTHS INSIGHTS

What makes you stand out?

Driven by your talents, you enjoy sharing ideas, exchanging information, and trading stories. During conversations, you usually are the person who simplifies complicated details. You can help individuals understand intricate procedures, theories, regulations, or plans. Chances are good that you can finagle — that is, obtain by indirect or involved means — time with people who think about the coming years and decades. Routinely, you read their writings or listen to their conversations. You probably ask them questions and consider their responses. You file away lots of ideas and facts, sensing that one day this information will prove to be useful. Whether it ever actually does become useful makes no difference to you. Collecting the predictions of forward-looking thinkers is apt to be rewarding in and of itself. By nature, you are a rational thinker. That is, you exhibit good judgment and exercise sound reasoning. These thought processes serve you well whenever you set out to acquire true knowledge and/or gain a skill. You school yourself by reading, investigating, examining, experiencing, or receiving instruction in a subject. Instinctively, you have a deep yearning to acquire more knowledge and gain new skills to heighten your expertise. Usually you desire to be in the know — that is, completely educated about your area of specialization. Not surprisingly, you suffer greatly when an information vacuum exists or you are left out of the information loop. It’s very likely that you are drawn to the process of gaining knowledge and skills. You long to build on what you already know. You yearn to improve on what you already can do. When you meet people who value education as much as you do, you are eager to hear about their personal or professional ambitions, intentions, or goals. Understanding what others aim to accomplish in the coming weeks, months, or years can be the beginning of a practical partnership or an enduring friendship.

You envision in vivid detail the things you need to enhance and perfect. These could include your environment, yourself, another person, a system, a project, a product, or a job. Instinctively, you are eager to get started on a project once you realize what you can accomplish in the coming weeks, months, or years. You work very hard to breathe life into your big dreams.

Because you have acquired special skills and knowledge, you can suggest a number of alternative solutions. Your expertise often serves as a springboard for your own and others’ imaginations.
