Character Strengths and Next Chapter

My Character Strengths - My Next Chapter

After 18 years working with companies of all sizes and a state workforce of a many varied diversity, I find the work that I do is now available for a wider audience. 

In 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, I worked on identifying my character strengths to prepare for possible changes of any kind.  I had no idea just how fortuitous this self-discovery would be. That story can be found in my previous blog posts. 

My identified character strengths are as follows:

1. Judgment (wisdom)

2. Curiosity (wisdom)

3. Perspective (wisdom)

4. Fairness (justice)

5. Appreciation of Beauty & Excellence (transcendence) 

My interpretation and understanding of these give me confidence to move forward into my next chapter of work: 

• Having worked with companies and the workforce that makes those companies operate, I understand and appreciate all the work that goes into starting, maintaining, and changing operations to keep those companies viable. 
• Having designed, started, maintained, and changed my own business in a foreign country catering to a multicultural clientele, I understand and appreciate all that is involved in staying viable. 
• Having been a consumer in several foreign cultures and, now, a consumer in my own culture for the last 18 years, I understand and appreciate what I, a customer, expect and want. 
• Having identified, and now, understand the value of my character strengths, I am confident that I can give reviews of products I have consumed, experienced, and utilized the following: 
•  fair assessments about the pros and cons 
• honest perspectives including times when I mistakenly expected things that the product didn't promise
• informed analysis for consumers to make educated decisions on purchases
• perhaps, informed analysis for manufacturers to enhance customer experiences by modifying products, services, and or solutions to exceed expectations
