Psychology at Work

Toward the Deepest Understanding of Strengths (It Depends)


Listen Later

In this episode, Casey and Tim discuss some of the theoretical underpinnings behind the turn to strength-based thinking.  They explain their take on what strengths really are, how to best leverage them - and of course, what might get in the way from time-to-time.  And don't miss the last few minutes in which the origin story of "it depends" emerges.

Opening quote:  "In most cases, strengths and weaknesses are two sides of the same coin.  A strength in one situation is a weakness in another, yet often the person can't switch gears.  It's a very subtle thing to talk about strengths and weaknesses because almost always they're the same thing." ~Steve Jobs
