Build your leadership strengths with Joseph Tan
As the first Gallup-certified strengths coach in Malaysia, I have spent more than two decades guiding individuals and teams in their leadership journey toward becoming a better version of themselves.
People who focus on their strengths every day are six times as likely to be engaged in their jobs and three times as likely to have a higher quality of life. When the language of strengths is absent from your leadership vocabulary, it is difficult to maintain a culture of high performance and high employee engagement.
One of my unique approach to the topic of leadership strengths is a systematic approach to embedding strengths into your team's culture and leveraging on personal strengths as a coaching framework for driving higher engagement and personal career growth.
