Agreed with Bob this guy is out for money. Couldn’t believe the ‘only use code once’ policy – worked it out after a few test tries and receiving message ’sorry your code is invalid.’ Disappointing. I guess one of his strengths is ‘making the most of others’ weaknesses.’ Still it’s got to be a help though, to remind us of our strengths and use them to better ourselves and hopefully, also help others.

As good as this StrengthsFinder thing might be, its a rip-off and a way to make some PhD dude a little richer. My wife bought the book hoping it would be a way for us to improve upon the strenghts of our entire family. Well, she took the test all right, but what they don’t tell you is that the little code on the book can only be used once. Apparently, someone already used the code from our book, and even if they hadn’t only one person could take the test, unless you want to buy more books. Ha! Again, what a rip-off!

I picked up “Strengths Finder 2.0″ the other day. I have taken other tests like these before but they are vague in what the results mean or don’t give you examples of how to use it. The book gives you examples and action plans. It is great. Now all I have to do is go on-line to dothe Gallop test. It seems to be under maintenance until 10:30 a.m., but they don’t say which day. I hope they are not shut down for good.
