“CliftonStrengths has been an eye-opening experience, one that has helped me better understand my personal leadership style and the best way to apply my strengths at work. Kathy Houston is an amazing communicator who truly cares about the success of her clients.”

Paula Anne Edwards, JJ Eyes Optical Boutique

“As the Executive Director of a Christian ministry and school, I was very pleased and impressed with the powerful effects that CliftonStrengths had on me and our staff. Getting in touch with the strengths of each team member and learning how to optimize production from each staff member by focusing on their strengths was a new way of management for me. Our staff was so affected by Kathy’s presentations that we asked her to allow us to incorporate her teaching into our school curriculum. I highly recommend this training for anyone dealing with people in a work environment.”

“Several years ago, I was looking for a local training consultant to develop our up-and-coming and current leaders.  Contacting Rush and Kathy at Strengths Consulting was a great decision.  Their focus on Gallup’s Strength-Based Leadership has been very helpful with out leaders.  We started with the strengths assessment and the leaders were able to better understand their own strengths, as well as the strengths of their peers.  Then we focused the leadership training on Gallup’s Universal Core Competencies.  I have received positive feedback from several of the participating leaders, and I can tell that they have taken the information gained through the sessions to heart and are applying it as they lead. 

“This year, we surveyed our employees for engagement, and we have trained our managers on facilitating the engagement survey results and creating departmental goals around the engagement items.  This journey with Strengths Consulting has opened our leaders’ eyes to the impact they have on their employees and the responsibility they have to the organization as a leader. 
I highly recommend Strengths Consulting.”

“Kathy helped me during a season of tremendous professional growth by showing how my strengths uniquely qualify me and can be utilized for how I best accomplish tasks and leadership initiatives that have always seemed out of my grasp. This created a greater peace of mind, confidence at work, and make me a better leader and manager to my team."
