In this episode of Strengths Applied, we welcome guest coaches Damian Zikakis and Louann McCurdy back to the show to dive into "workplace onboarding." We begin by sharing our personal experiences and how our own talents shaped those moments. We also dive into the lessons learned when onboarding is done with intention and is human-centered...and when it's done in ways that leaves people feeling lost or undervalued. We all agree that using a tool like the CliftonStrengths assessment to identify a person's talents can transform the way new employees are welcomed into their roles. This episode offers practical ideas for using CliftonStrengths to make onboarding better for everyone, whether you're a leader, coach, or a new hire. As Gallup-Certified Strengths Coaches, we're passionate about helping people feel seen, supported, and set up for success from day one. We explore how to support those new employees who are struggling to be seen (like remote and hybrid employees), and how new managers can use their strengths to create meaningful onboarding experience for themselves and their teams, even when the company doesn't have a formal process.

How well do we actually know what we're great at—and how much does it shape the way we work? In this episode, we take you behind the scenes of our own strengths journeys as we revisit the CliftonStrengths assessment after 15 years and compare what's changed (and what hasn't) along the way.Together with design and innovation consultant (and my good friend) Sandeep Pahuja, we dig into why leaning into your strengths can lead to more authentic success, and how easy it is to miss the value in what comes naturally. We share stories from our corporate and entrepreneurial experiences, explore what it looks like to build teams and careers around our unique strengths, and reflect on why “fixing” our weaknesses is rarely the answer.If you're curious how to make your work feel more aligned—or want practical ideas for maximizing your talents—this episode will help you see your strengths with fresh eyes, and encourage you to work your way.Resources:Connect with Sandeep on LinkedInGallup CliftonStrengths: gallup.com/cliftonstrengthsConnect with me:InstagramLinkedInYouTubeselfatwork.comProduced by NOVA

Aujourd'hui, elle l'embrasse comme une véritable force :« Je suis un vecteur de joie (et les gens ont envie de travailler avec moi)».Un échange authentique, lumineux, où les talents révèlent toute leur puissance… quand on leur laisse la place de s'exprimer.Bonne écoute !---Culture Talents est un podcast proposé par Le Labo des Talents.Animation : Florence HardyRéalisation : César Defoort | Natif. ------Florence Hardy et les coachs du Labo des Talents sont certifiés par Gallup, cependant nous précisons que Le Labo des Talents n'est pas affilié à ni ne représente Gallup.

What happens when you stop trying to be good at everything and instead design your life around what you're naturally brilliant at? Today we dive deep into the revolutionary concept of knowing your genius and strategically organizing your life around it to achieve success that only few can dream of - empowered by AI genius. Breaking coffee plungers might seem like clumsiness, but what if these "flaws" are actually signposts pointing to your natural strengths? The traits that make us "elephants in china shops" in some contexts are often the very same qualities that make us exceptional in others. Those absorbed in deep thinking and pattern recognition might break a few things along the way, but they also see solutions that others miss. This episode walks you through practical steps to identify your natural talents using proven assessment tools like DISC, CliftonStrengths, and the VIA Character Strengths Survey. We show you how to leverage modern AI tools to create personalized systems that both amplify your strengths and protect you from your blind spots. The goal isn't avoiding hard work, it's ensuring your efforts flow in the direction where you naturally excel. Drawing inspiration from Yu-kai Chou's framework in "10 Hours of Play," we explore how extraordinary success comes from following your personal hero's journey. Where are the doors wide open for your particular genius? How can you stop knocking on closed doors and instead find the places where your talents are valued like gold? When you operate in your zone of genius, hard work feels more like play as natural as swimming is for a fish. Ready to transform your approach to success? Take the strength assessments linked in our show notes, explore Cho's book, and use AI to build systems that support your natural brilliance.

Imagine building your business around what naturally energizes you instead of constantly trying to fix your weaknesses. What if that's actually the secret to sustainable success?In this illuminating conversation with Lindsay Schmit, Gallup-certified strengths coach and founder of Right Hand Consultants, we explore how self-awareness transforms from a personal development exercise into a powerful business strategy. Lindsay shares how the CliftonStrengths framework helps high-performing leaders identify their natural talents and leverage them for greater impact.We take a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at my own strengths profile, examining how talents like Relator, Significance, Focus, Achiever, and Futuristic shape my coaching approach and business decisions. Lindsay explains why certain strengths appear prominently in entrepreneurs and leaders and how they influence everything from goal-setting to scaling strategies.The research is compelling: people who focus on developing their strengths are three times more likely to report excellent quality of life and six times more likely to be engaged at work. Yet, many ambitious professionals continue pouring energy into fixing weaknesses, missing opportunities for exponential growth in areas of natural talent.Whether you're leading a team, scaling a business, or seeking more sustainable success, this conversation offers practical wisdom for aligning your strengths with your strategy. Discover why the best leaders don't try to become well-rounded individuals—they build well-rounded teams, creating championship rosters where diverse talents complement each other perfectly.Ready to lead with greater clarity and purpose?

The platform, led by CEO Paul Allen, uses AI to create a personalized, nonpartisan newsfeed that makes it easier than ever to monitor public officials and engage in civic issues.Paul explained, “We redesigned the site to literally use AI to detect every important topic discussed in every government meeting.” By analyzing over 1.3 million hours of public meetings, Citizen Portal generates bite-sized articles on key issues, giving users a consumable, easy-to-navigate interface resembling a news site.This shift has been a game-changer. Paul shared that the platform has attracted nearly a million users this year alone. The tool addresses a growing demand for transparency and accountability in government while filling a void created by the decline of local newspapers.Unlike platforms driven by ad revenue or partisan agendas, Citizen Portal operates on a subscription model designed to empower its users. “There's no spin, no partisan bias, and no kind of echo chamber,” Paul said. Instead, the platform's algorithm, called BRAIN, tailors content to users' locations and interests, ensuring relevance.Citizen Portal's mission is ambitious yet essential. Paul envisions a world where “it'll be a thousand times easier to become an informed and engaged citizen.” The platform not only provides insights into local schools, city councils, and state legislatures, but also offers actionable steps for users to make their voices heard.For those interested in supporting this social impact initiative, Citizen Portal is raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign. This funding will allow the company to expand its reach and enhance its technology.Paul's vision is clear: to strengthen democracy by making civic engagement easier and more effective. With Citizen Portal, we can all stay informed, get involved, and make a difference in our communities.tl;dr:Citizen Portal uses AI to transform 1.3 million hours of government meetings into actionable news.The platform fills the gap left by declining local newspapers with nonpartisan, customizable newsfeeds.Paul's vision is to empower citizens and policymakers with tools for informed engagement.Citizen Portal is raising capital through regulated crowdfunding to expand its impact and technology.Paul's superpower, insatiable curiosity, drives his passion for creating tools that make information accessible.How to Develop Insatiable Curiosity As a SuperpowerPaul described his superpower as a deep passion for learning and gathering information. “I just have an insatiable curiosity for finding content in libraries, researching archives, [and] finding hidden gems,” he explained. This natural drive to consume and organize information has fueled his success, from co-founding Ancestry.com to leading Citizen Portal. He combines his love of learning with a knack for turning chaotic data into meaningful tools that empower others.Paul shared how his superpower helped him build Citizen Portal. He and his team analyzed millions of hours of government meeting records, transforming vast, fragmented data into actionable, AI-generated newsfeeds. His love for gathering information and creating order enabled him to design a platform that empowers citizens to monitor local governance and engage more effectively.Tips for Developing CuriosityIdentify and lean into your natural strengths using tools like the Clifton Strengths Assessment.Focus on areas that energize and excite you rather than trying to emulate others' strengths.Gather and organize information in ways that help others, amplifying the impact of your efforts.Pursue learning as a lifelong habit by reading, researching, and staying curious about the world.By following Paul's example and advice, you can make insatiable curiosity a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfilePaul Allen (he/him):CEO & Board Member, Citizen PortalAbout Citizen Portal: Citizen Portal is a non-partisan, AI-powered platform, with $426,200 in pre-seed funding and a seasoned leadership team, aiming to revolutionize civic engagement, revive government transparency, and transform American democracy. Citizen Portal is on a mission to transform democracy with an AI-powered approach. We are reshaping civic engagement and education by providing Americans with up-to-date, accurate, newsworthy information straight from the source. Citizen Portal utilizes AI to index, transcribe, and summarize meetings and hearings at all levels of government. By providing access to video recordings of school boards, local, state, and federal meetings, Citizen Portal helps to empower citizens, journalists, and advocates to know what is being said by their elected officials and done in their government.Website: citizenportal.aiCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093227401453Other URL: startengine.com/citizenportalBiographical Information: Paul Allen is a visionary tech entrepreneur and evangelist driven by a desire to help individuals live their best lives.Paul has founded eight companies. He calls himself a “platform entrepreneur” since his products are usually built on top of the latest tech platform or wave, such as CD ROM, the World Wide Web, mp3 audio, or Facebook. For the past several years, Paul's focus has been using machine learning and artificial intelligence to help individuals and organizations reach their full potential.In 1990, Paul founded Infobases, whose mission was to digitize and publish the world's most important books on CD ROM with a full-text search engine. This endeavor led directly to Ancestry.com—Paul's best known company—which sought to gather and publish the world's genealogy records, family trees, and memories on the internet to enable everyone to discover their heritage. Over 100 million people have learned about their family history at Ancestry.com.Paul's teams have a history of building viral products. MyFamily.com (1998) attracted millions of users, and for a time, was the fastest growing online community on the web as well as the top photo sharing site in 2000 and 2001. Paul's We're Related app on Facebook (2007-2010) gained more than 120 million users in two and a half years. From 2012 to 2017, Paul worked with Gallup to promote the StrengthsFinder assessment (now called CliftonStrengths) from the Washington, DC headquarters. As the “Global Strengths Evangelist,” Paul helped increase online purchases of the assessment and supported a global community of strengths coaches. Today, more than 30 million people have taken the CliftonStrengths assessment. Paul's most recent creation is Soar.com, a company whose mission—once again—is to uplift humanity. Paul is a strong advocate for using AI in positive ways, specifically to enable individuals to become the best version of themselves. When excellent training is paired with AI generated feedback on actual performance, leaders, managers, founders, and individual contributors can achieve excellence faster than ever before. Soar is an AI Studio that will form more than fifteen separate corporations to bring PURE AI (Personalized Uplifting Responsible Ethical AI) to many fields, including education, faith, government, health, finance, medicine, law, family history, and the workplace. Eventually, Soar will enable people to build and customize their own AI assistant (think of Jarvis from Iron Man or Janet from The Good Place) to help them learn, grow, make better decisions, and maximize their time on Earth. Paul's influence extends beyond entrepreneurship. He's a sought-after keynote speaker and workshop facilitator, teaching the importance of family stories and personal strengths in shaping one's identity. A lifelong learner, Paul has amassed a vast library of thousands of books. In fact, Paul's dedication to learning extends to his teaching roles in Internet Marketing and Entrepreneurship at Utah Valley University and Brigham Young University. He's received numerous accolades, including Ernst & Young Utah Entrepreneur of the Year in 2000 and MarketingSherpa National Entrepreneur of the Year in 2008. Paul is a fellow of the Utah Genealogical Association and was named a Cyber Pioneer in 2010 by the Cyber Law Section of the Utah State Bar. In 2016, he was the honored alumnus of the BYU Humanities College, having graduated in 1990 with a BA in Russian. Most recently, Paul has been featured on The Pulse of AI, The Briefing with Steve Scully, The Business of Learning, and The Adventures in Machine Learning podcasts.Paul and his wife, Christy, reside in Missouri. They have 8 adult children and 5 grandchildren.X/Twitter Handle: @paulballenPersonal Facebook Profile: facebook.com/paulallenLinkedin: linkedin.com/in/paulballenInstagram Handle: @paulallendcSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

Get business tools and strategy support with her Tools for Coaches membership. Takeaways on Using Low Ticket Offers In an Independent Coaching Practice The power of the no-brainer factor. Low ticket is a strategy for creating offers that your audience can't resist, making it easy for them to say "yes!" ● Transform Browsers into Buyers: By offering low ticket items, you can convert freebie seekers into paying customers. This shift not only establishes a business relationship but also increases the likelihood of repeat purchases in the future. ● Creative low ticket ideas: Steal some of Lisa & Brea's favorite low ticket offerings that you can implement in your coaching practice. ● Leverage Existing Content: Coaches can create low ticket offers from existing materials, such as recorded webinars, activity guides, or coaching templates. This allows you to monetize content you've already developed, making it easier to generate income. ● Build Trust and Value: Low ticket offers can help establish trust with your audience. When clients see the value in your lower-priced products, they are more likely to invest in higher-ticket items down the line, creating a sustainable business model. Take Action to Build a Low Ticket Offer Strategy ● Define Your Low Ticket Offer: Determine what your low ticket offer will be. Remember to make it a “no-brainer” for potential customers. ● Repackage an Existing Asset: Look through your existing materials (like recorded webinars, handouts, or coaching questions) and package them into a low ticket offer. Aim to create something that provides value and can be easily sold, such as a workbook or an activity guide. ● Ask For the Sale: After you create a clear offer, it's time to communicate it to your audience. Remember, people who have bought from you before are more likely to buy again. ● Automate Your Sales: Consider exploring ways to automate the sales of your low ticket offers, such as through email marketing or online sales platforms, to generate income while you focus on other aspects of your business.

BJ's top 5 CliftonStrengths are: Woo, Communication, Maximizer, Input and Competition BJ met Jesus on a very hungover walk across campus his freshman year at the University of Florida (Go Gators!). He graduated with a history degree and a lifelong conviction: God is always faithful to His promises. Through college ministry, he met his wife Rachel, and nearly eight years later, they're raising 3.2 kids—Elijah, Gracie, Mackenzie Joy, and “Fluffy,” due December '25! BJ serves as the Director of Multiplication at the Church of Eleven22, where he helps people “get in the game” with the mission of God. When he's not chasing around people telling them to give their lives to Jesus and the Great Commission, you can find him coaching Eli's little league team, shooting clays at the skeet range, or nurturing a rack of ribs on the back porch smoker.
