Gallup's Theme Thursday is a live Webcast that targets strengths
coaches and enthusiasts to provide a deeper context behind the
language of strengths by talking in-depth about each of the 34
Clifton StrengthsFinder themes.

On this Theme Thursday Season Four webcast, Jim Collison, Gallup's
Director of Talent Sourcing, and Maika Leibbrandt, Senior Workplace
Consultant, talk about Maximizer.

People exceptionally talented in the Maximizer theme focus on
strengths as a way to stimulate personal and group excellence. They
seek to transform something strong into something superb.
Maximizers see talents and strengths in others, usually before
anyone else does. Strengths — whether their own or someone else’s —
fascinate them. Maximizers love to help others become excited about
their potential. They have the capacity to see what people do best
and which jobs they will be good at. They can see how people’s
talents match the tasks that must be completed. Excellence, not
average, is their measure and pursuit. They have a quality
orientation that leads them to focus on areas of strength for
themselves and others and to manage around weakness.
