Strengths Assessment Results and Reflections

Hi everyone, I wanted to share my strength assessment results and reflection.

I found this presentation to be perfectly suited for my 55

top themes which are heavy and executing and strategic thinking.

These were not surprising to me,

especially with someone like myself who struggles with anxiety.

I'm constantly thinking, I feel like my brain never rusts.

Number three was a surprise to me.

I feel like discipline should have probably been number one.

My first steam was responsibility.

Responsible person tends to be trustworthy and dependable and we have a reputation

for showing care and precision and whatever

we do or following through to completion

to build trust.

I need to go to the source of a situation or something doesn't feel right.

For example,

I was a new teacher making copies of a book for each student to have for shared.

Reading

the media specialist saw me doing this and instead

of running to the principal to report me,

she talked directly to me about copyright laws.

I feel comfortable going to her now for questions

to show compassion, I will check in with students to see how they are doing.

I want my library to be a place where students feel safe

to provide that stability.

I could be dependable, but I need to remember not to take it all on myself

what when it's done right. You have to kind of do it yourself.

I need to start to learn to share responsibilities

with volunteers or library assistants who may be helping

in creating hope.

I need to take ownership of every project and encourage others to do the same.

That will help them grow and develop into lifelong learners.

My # two theme was input.

The mind is restless.

One quote that spoke to me was you might collect

things tangible objects you collect because it interests you.

So for example, I love playing board games.

I collect themed monopolies and trivial pursuits and

when the theme monopolies don't have alternative rules,

I make them myself.

Yes, I have a problem.

In order to build trust, I will research a topic,

making sure the information gathered is accurate.

I'm not the strongest of technology,

but I am relentless when it comes to gathering information on a topic. I don't know.

During covid virtual learning,

my colleagues knew that they could come to me to help

them create google slides and learn how to work on class dojo

in order to show compassion

by being dependable whether to collaborate on lessons

or just be there for students who come

to me for help and gain that knowledge

on unknown topics or just general information.

In order to provide stability.

I will take the time to research deeply because I want

others to feel confident with the knowledge I bring to them

and to create hope I will gather that information to

share with others and learn from them as well,

engaging in an educated discussion.

My number three theme was disciplined.

I am a structured and routine person and my world needs to be predictable.

I have a magnet that actually states plan to be spontaneous tomorrow. It is so me to a T

My life is structured around routines which

which helps with teaching and classroom management.

I work in a title one school and I have students who

don't know what each day will bring when they go home,

but in class they know they have structure

to build that trust.

I keep to a set of procedures to get tests done or to structure my day.

My colleagues and students know they can count on me

to show compassion.

I will build relationships with others and collaborate,

bringing out each other's strengths.

This is especially important when I help with volunteers

or those I work with closely on a daily basis

and to provide stability. I will be predictable and consistent.

So the principle for example, feels comfortable in trusting me with projects

in order to create hope I will

lead by example sharing organizational skills when appropriate

meaning.

I have to be aware not to push structure on people who do not have the same mindset,

I need to find what they are strong at and encourage them based on their strengths,

which relates back to showing compassion.

My number four theme is learner.

I want to continuously improve and I am drawn to the process of learning

relating back to discipline.

I can't just be spontaneous in making decisions,

I have to learn the facts in order to feel comfortable with the situation.

This takes a lot of effort and pre planning to account for every situation.

So for example, before buying any pet,

I've always researched extensively extensively to find out as much information.

So we take care of them right

now. They are in my care and I want to make sure I do right by them.

Our hermit crabs are now nine years old.

All of these leader qualities go hand in hand

in this steam.

I admit when I am still learning, making sure to listen to what others know.

I experienced this with my students all the time,

some no more on the topic than me and it's a

great learning experience for all of us in the class.

If a student asked a question, I don't know, we google it

and in third grade we learn what keywords to use when searching

the internet for a given topic and it works out perfectly.

Learning together,

creates a mutual respect for one another and forms a strong relationship

providing that patients with learning gives others the sense

of importance and according to wrath and Clifton's,

when others have the opportunity to learn and grow.

They are more engaged, more productive

and loyal

And last but not least my number five theme is achiever.

I am a highly driven person.

I am naturally motivated to be the best, I'm highly competitive

in order to build trust, I have

respected work ethic. For example, my grade level team all work hard together.

We share plans and we don't deviate much to make them our own.

We know each other has put forth the best learning experience for the students

and this goes with providing stability as well.

We count on each other and expect nothing less.

And in order to show compassion,

I need to set those same achievement goals towards spending time with my family

and I make sure to set aside time to play board games.

Um, there were some aspects of achieved achiever that didn't relate.

I have to achieve something tangible in order to feel good about myself.

That's not really true for me.

I can relax and watch movies all day and still feel satisfied.

And maybe this goes back to showing compassion

and creating that healthy work life balance.

Thanks for listening.
