What Makes a Great Leader?

Effective leadership means becoming aware of your own and your team’s strengths. Research has shone that teams with successful leaders build teams around the idea of complementing different strengths, and continue to expand on them (Rath and Conchie, 2009). We are proud to offer Clifton Strengths at the Center for Innovative Leadership, and the courses we offer are comprise of two separate courses designed to be taken in respective order–Discovery and Strategies for Success. Each courses is facilitated by Furman’s own Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and each run for three hours on the day they are hosted.

If you have been looking for a tool to help you understand what you excel in and to recognize the strengths of your peers and team, then look no further!
