Focus on your Strengths
As part of our Coaching service, we provide you with a comprehensive insight into your character strengths based on the VIA survey.
The VIA Survey is the premier tool in the field of positive psychology that assesses an individual's character strengths. When we know our strengths we can be coached and guided more effectively.
Positive Psychology is an emerging scientific field studying what makes humans flourish. The core premise is that fixing one's weaknesses can help to avoid failure, but to achieve success, happiness, and fulfilment - one needs to maximise their strengths.
