StrengthsFinder
An Ole Miss Student Union Program
What is StrengthsFinder?
The CliftonStrengths Assessment reframes leadership by giving you the tools to develop your natural skills, rather than “fixing” areas of weakness. For more than 50 years, CliftonStrengths has guided millions of people in discovering what they do best. Strengthsfinder identifies your top talents and leads you through a self-directed journey of growth defined by your own unique strengths. At the University of Mississippi, we are here to guide you through your own Strengths journey. Our certified Strengths coaches offer a range of individual and team resources to help you identify, invest, and apply your talents in your various roles on campus and in the community.
Discover your Strengths
Start your Strengths journey by signing up for an individual consultation or a group workshop! Our office will provide you and your team a CliftonStrengths Code at retail cost to be included in your session. Workshop and consultation information is included below–please review each option carefully before completing a registration form. We are happy to answer any questions or direct your to the option that best fits your needs.

StrengthsFinder Workshops and Coaching Sessions
The Strengthsfinder Workshop Series is structured to meet the needs of teams, departments, and organizations. These workshops are progressive and build on one another–groups must start with Strengths 101 before continuing on in the series. We are happy to customize content to meet any specific needs of your group, which you may indicate on your registration form.
In addition to the workshop, our office offers one-on-one consultation sessions with our Strengths Certified Coaches. These sessions are recommended for anyone who wishes to have a more focused and individualized approach to their strengths development. We also offer a specialized session to managers and team leaders, which focuses intently on leading a team of individuals through a Strengths framework.
