Find your personal strengths!

Q: Why are not all 44 strengths visible in the result?

The focus is on your strengths. All strengths outside your TOP 10 are non-strengths and cost you a lot of strength and energy. The order in which they lie is not relevant. However, your bottom 5 non-strengths are interesting to get a feel for whether you use them frequently. I also want to show you that your weaknesses do not lie in the bottom 5, but in the shadow sides of your top 10 strengths.
