EP 17.  3 TOOLS TO HELP YOU DIG DEEPER IN DISCOVERING YOUR PATH: The Tools of Personality, Career, and Strengths Assessment To Help You Gain Clarity in Life, Career and Business with Jacqueline Wallace 

 

In this episode my good friend Jackie and I take a deep dive on the top 3 tools to help you dig deeper in discovering your path and passion. These are all the things that influence your values, interests, skills and passion. 

 

StrengthsQuest

MBTI Myers Briggs

Strong Interest Inventory

 

When it comes to all of these assessments, the most important and influential piece after taking them is to connect in having a meaningful conversation.

 

These tools are intended to help an individual gain clarity and influence making informed decisions on their career, life, and goals.

 

Carl Jung: “We can learn a lot about ourselves by what annoys us about others!

 

StrengthsQuest

The language is based on themes of talent to align knowledge of skills to apply to life, working everyday with people and getting lost in what you're doing.

Having unique conversations leads us to appreciate and acknowledge people’s strengths and helps people process and learn how to own their unique talents and themes.

 

MBTI

Lots of data involved in Myers Briggs that can help individuals work better in a team. Being able to get a better understanding from the different dichotomies with the 16 different possibilities and the 4 different attributes. Learning about people and their traits will help you find ways to work with others who have different types.

 

Strong Interest Inventory

Focused on John Holland’s theory of Career Development. His theory was based on themes of Realistic, Investigative,Artistic, Social, Enterprising, Conventional (RIASEC). The report for this assessment allows you to explore a variety of different areas such as someone's hobbies and interests. It’s important to look at the combination of the 2 themes and being able to see how they work with each other.

 

Words of Wisdom from Jackie: Taking any of these assessments will help you learn the steps you can take next. She advises individuals who take the assessment to have a conversation with someone that can help you process what the results mean. Help you move along in gaining clarity and making decisions about life and career. These tools offer you the opportunity to engage in the meaningful conversations that will help you connect with the different values, the language and themes.
