StrongSuits is based on 4 findings from modern psychology: *People perform best when they play to their strengths (Gallup, Martin Seligman) *Our limitations hold the keys to our strengths (Daniel Ofman) *Diversity makes teams stronger (Belbin, McKinsey) *People communicate in different ways (Linda Berens, William Moulton Marston) This has profound implications for team members, coaches, facilitators, managers and leaders to understand different communication styles and how to coach individuals and teams to play to their strengths and derive the maximum benefit from the cognitive diversity in teams.
