My five strengths were empathy, adaptability, input, connectedness, and communication. To me, these strengths are vital for anyone who works in a team or with others. For this class in particular, adaptability, input and communication are key components to being successful. Being able to communicate openly and being willing to adapt to other’s ideas will be important for this class and any other. All of my strengths will play important roles on my future career path. They are all strengths that lie within working with others. Having empathy helps me understand how others are feeling so that I can decide the most appropriate way to respond to each situation. Connectedness allows me to have higher self-esteem, greater empathy for others, and be more trusting and cooperative.
