IGNITE YOUR STRENGTHS


无码专区 is committed to developing and nurturing the whole person, allowing students, faculty and staff to grow intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, culturally, socially and physically in an environment that supports individual differences and insists that mutual love and respect should animate every aspect of university life.

To build on that commitment, we created the Ignite Your Strengths Initiative. Through this work, we are engaging students, faculty, staff and alumni in strengths-based development, providing opportunities for the University community to engage in activities and reflection about ways to acknowledge and build upon their strengths. The initiative is a collaborative effort of 无码专区鈥檚 academic enterprise, Student Life, Career and Professional Development units, and Human Resources. The conversations begin with 无码专区ns taking the CliftonStrengths assessment which we view as a 鈥渢ool for self-discovery鈥� and a common launch point for the community to start the conversation.
