This book is awesome! The interactive questions were right on when finding my strengths and weaknesses. This makes for a great team building activity. Great for developing your weak points as well as using your strengths to your advantage in both work and personal life!Mommy's High Heel Shoes
It's all about the test!

Honestly, without the improved Strength Finders 2.0 Test, this book is not worth buying. The previous book "Now, Discover Your Strength" by Marcus Buckingham provides more convincing argument on the benefits of focusing on strength. I flipped through this book quickly and proceed to the test.
Strength Finder 2.0 test is much better than Strength Finder 1.0 with customized comment. I would rate 5 star for the test and 1 star for the book if I would rate them separately.
The only reason to pay for this book is to take the Strength Finder 2.0 test. You are paying for the test.

Strength Finder is a great concept. I think it can be useful for many people. Only complaint: it took much longer than I expected to get delivered.
Try This Title Instead.........

Every now and then you get a gem of a suggestion from these reviews. I know that readers comments have been invaluable to me in the past, so in keeping I will share this one with you.
Buy this book instead: Styles of Thinking: Strategies for Asking Questions, Making Decisions, and Solving Problems (Hardcover).
Only available through Amazon resellers. Published in 1982, but a timeless & fascinating book of self discovery. It has the most insightful testing in the final chapter.
Best wishes.

interesting

This book was interesting. It told me what my strengths were. Ironic because they are exactly what others point out to be my faults: focused-read tunnel vision, deliberative- read over analyzing...etc. Good insights, also shows you how to positively view your "strengths" that others may not value as strongly. Its nice to see how I am supposed to fit in groups. I give this a solid 3 stars because I was pretty unimpressed with the website. If you can find the old version used or something, I think it would probably work the same, for cheaper.
