CliftonStrengths

The Division of Academic and Student Affairs is fortunate to have a number of Gallup-Certified Strengths Coaches. What is CliftonStrengths? It is an assessment that helps individuals discover what they naturally do best (talents) and then use this to maximize their potential. Training for teams is also available. Contact Beth Buck in DASA HR to learn more or to connect with a Strengths Coach.
