Strengths-based organizations celebrate and honor each person's talents and leverage them to build a better, more complete group. CliftonStrengths supports faculty and staff to reach greater success and engagement by helping them understand their natural strengths to create a campus dynamic that welcomes, values, and leverages each person’s talents.
