Strengths Coaching
Are you wondering if you are living out your full potential? Are you searching for greater satisfaction in work, relationship and life? Often, the answer can be found in who you are, what you are good at and love doing. Gallup’s CliftonStrengths Assessment is a powerful tool that can help you learn more about yourself by giving you a language to name your unique blend of talents.
Strengths Coaching helps you discover and intentionally invest in your talent themes. In the process, you not only grow in owning your strengths, but also in the application of your strengths to overcome specific challenge or meet developmental goal at work or life.
We may have grown up being taught that we need to work on our weakness to improve ourselves. Hence, many of us tend to invest on overcoming our weakness rather than on developing our strengths. While coping and managing your “weakness” or non-strengths are necessary in some situations, doing so without focusing on your strengths development would be like playing defence without a strategy to achieve, advance and succeed in life. The key to your growth and success lies in nurturing your talents so you could live your strongest life.
CliftonStrengths has significantly contributed to my vocational clarity and confidence in the beginning phase of my career. This has influenced me to advocate for the benefit of strengths-based development by introducing CliftonStrengths assessment to my family and friends as well as my faith and work community.
As a certified Strengths Coach, I hope to help you discover your talents and grow your strengths. This is how strengths coaching may benefit you: understanding and overcoming the challenges you face at work, guiding you in making vocational choices, applying and growing your strengths towards greater success.
“I was in a dilemma in deciding my career path when I was introduced to Grace to explore how my strengths can provide some insight and set some direction for me. The session with Grace proved to be intellectually stimulating, invigorating and extremely informative. She was able to pick up my conundrum which goes beyond the immediate concern of career path but also in terms of the next phase of my life. I appreciate her calm and confident demeanour to understand me and guide me towards further exploration and appreciate my strengths in a refreshing way. Her suggestions and sharp wit also offered me further scope of reflection and ponderance. I left the session with a sense of being validated with new insights to decide my next course of action. She is an amazing strengths coach whom I give 6 stars out of 5!” - Alexis, 37
“I’ve done the CliftonStrengths assessment 3 times, but it was only recently that I did the CliftonStrengths34 assessment along with a coaching session with Grace. I would describe the session as extremely enlightening and energizing! Not only did she dispel my misconceptions concerning CliftonStrengths, more importantly, she pointed the way to help me return to who I am – I had an amazing grand revelation of why I had made certain decisions in the past. The session with Grace helped me access a new language to name the strengths that drive me.
In her gentle yet assertive way, Grace pointed out some struggles I had experienced. She gave me very concrete suggestions on how I could work on those areas by leaning on my other strengths. She also led me to consider how my strengths could be paired together so they could flourish. These ideas were new to me and by reflecting upon them was extremely life giving.
I really think every professional should have a strengths coach like Grace – she has effectively integrated her knowledge on strengths and background training in counselling to cater to individual needs, and intuitively point out not just strengths areas but caution areas too!” - N.Wong, 52
