CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Career Development Workshop: BPMC (Non Profit)
Summary:
This was a full day CliftonStrengths career workshop for a group of young working adults from Bethesda Pasir Ris Mission Church (non-profit) held in Singapore. There were over 30 young adults. Some were still studying in university, some had just started work and some had been working for quite some time.
The session focused on self-leadership and career guidance, helping the individuals discover more of their own strengths, gain self awareness and understand how their strengths connect to their career. Many wanted to find out also how they can use their strengths to serve in the church as well. There were lots of great interaction during the career workshop.
We had a combined session in the morning before breaking out into 2 groups in the afternoon. Fellow Gallup Certified Coaches Tan Meiling and Madelia Thia, took one group while I took another. The break out sessions allowed us to focus on different objectives to better cater to the needs of the participants.
Participants left with greater self-awareness and practical insights for personal application. It was a lovely time. One of the surprise highlights was that I met a teacher whom I coached two years back and she was one of the participants in the workshop. It felt good to reconnect again and she shared a bit what she had been doing and how she used her strengths as a teacher.
