If you've been in the same job for years with no hope of promotion, no feeling of improvement, and general dissatisfaction it is likely you are not doing a job you are actually good at.

Figuring out what our own personal strengths are is the key to a long and happy career.
Tom Rath has developed a series of tests in this book `Strengthsfinder 2.0' to help us pinpoint just what we are best at. Once our strengths are identified, Rath also guides us in how to apply this knowledge in order to bring about a successful career.

StrengthsFinder2.0 provides very sound advice for any job seeker who seeks to find not just any job, but one in which they will bound up the ladder.

This book/survey made me realize who I really am. It coincided with my thoughts of who I really am, thus making it concrete of what my strengths are and what I can do for myself in the future. I highly suggest this book for those that want to search within.

I was very impressed with Marcus Buckingham's "Trombone Player Wanted" DVD. The beauty of this book is the ability to do a 20 min long online test developed by the Gallup organization, and get your personal profile. If you want your strengths identified fast - go for it. You want to be happy and fulfilled at work - give yourself a gift. I am getting several copies as presents for my best friends and family. Spread the joy !

I have found this to be a highly reliable and valuable assessment instrument in my Executive Coaching practice. It helps an individual both recognize and articulate their strengths, providing a useful springboard for discussion on how they might utilize those strengths to meet future professional and personal challenges.

The outlook of the book I ordered via Amazon.com looks pretty good. I like the conveniency of purchasing books online. Overall, it's been a pleasant experience for me.
