| This month, we're pushing ourselves to go deeper in our knowledge and understanding of strengths. Applying our strengths in daily life can feel like magic.

Beyond the science and outcomes of strengths, keep reading to learn about an upcoming role-specific report launch and to get practical advice for how to talk about strengths and weaknesses in an interview. |

| Just Released From Gallup Press: Blind Spot |
| |
| Last year, anger, stress, worry and sadness reached record highs, but unhappiness has been increasing globally for a decade. How did leaders miss this? Gallup's latest book, Blind Spot: The Global Rise of Unhappiness and How Leaders Missed It, examines this question and more. Here's a small excerpt on strengths and wellbeing: "At work, I have the opportunity to do what I do best every day. Less than one-third of workers strongly agree with that item. They are doing a job that does not allow them to use their strengths … This emotional detachment adds to the world's misery, and leaders miss it because they do not focus on how people feel in the workplace." |
