QuickRead presents a summary of "Now, Discover Your Strengths" by Marcus Buckingham and Donald O. Clifton:

Learn how to Develop Your Talents and Those of the People You Manage

As you've navigated through life, you've probably identified your weaknesses. You know all about your flaws, shortcomings, and what areas you need to improve upon. Perhaps you know that math is not your strong suit or that any sport involving a ball is simply not where you thrive. Companies and organizations even make sure that we know all about our weaknesses. They send employees to various trainings so they can develop the necessary skills to do their job better. But what if we've been doing it all wrong? According to Marcus Buckingham, we have. We shouldn't be focusing on our weaknesses, it's our strengths that we should be growing and developing. In Now, Discover Your Strengths, you'll learn how to identify your strengths and use them to launch you further in life and your career. As you read, you'll learn how your brain plays a role in developing your innate talents, why playing up your strengths is far more powerful than fixing your weaknesses, and whether you're an Achiever, Arranger, or Input type.
