Did you see Marcus Buckingham on Oprah? I was first introduced to Marcus when I purchased the book The One Thing You Need to Know where he focuses on thriving within one's strengths, rather than spending an unbalanced amount of time working on weaknesses. It gives strategies for effectively managing personnel, as well as one's own behavior, ultimately, benefiting leaders and their organization. Click here for Marcus' The One Thing resources.
Then I saw him in person at the Direct Marketing Association conference in Atlanta in 2005, where he delivered the most motivating keynote I've ever seen--what a dynamic speaker!
Now, his new book, Go Put Your Strengths To Work uses the same principles to transform our careers, promoting better life/work balance.
On top of that, you can now access his workshop through Oprah.com, complete with handouts, worksheets, a workbook, and instruction from Marcus himself.

It's worth making the time and effort for this one!
