Connectedness
SHARED THEME DESCRIPTION
People who are especially talented in the Connectedness theme have faith in the links between all
things. They believe there are few coincidences and that almost every event has a reason.
YOUR PERSONALIZED STRENGTHS INSIGHTS
What makes you stand out?
Chances are good that you sometimes experience an unexplainable yet natural link with some
people. Perhaps this is a common occurrence with certain individuals, particularly those whose
talents, limitations, interests, goals, needs, or fears are known to you. By nature, you may be able to
accept unpredictable events in your life on the basis of sheer faith. Perhaps you sense there is a force
greater than you at work in the world. Occasionally you can live with not knowing the exact reason
why something good or bad happened to you and not to someone else. Driven by your talents, you
may be fascinated with the mystery of life. Perhaps your capacity to feel good about yourself does not
hinge on having logical or rational explanations for everything. Maybe you sense you are part of the
lives of other individuals and accept they are part of your existence. Maybe this outlook on life
influences what you say and do for people as well as how you care for the environment. Because of
your strengths, you might hold tightly to your core values. Maybe these form the foundation of your
day-to-day existence. Perhaps your internal compass points in the direction of what is right, proper, or
true, regardless of the obstacles you face. Instinctively, you occasionally help people realize they are
part of the human family. With your guidance, perhaps they understand that their lives are intertwined
with people they will never meet.
Developer
People who are especially talented in the Developer theme recognize and cultivate the potential in
others. They spot the signs of each small improvement and derive satisfaction from these
improvements.

Driven by your talents, you may see some people in vivid detail. Few human beings lack depth in your
opinion. Possibly you contend certain individuals are full of promise or potential. Periodically you set
out to discover in individuals what money cannot buy. You value their special qualities, strengths,
interests, or dreams. You might avoid being distracted by their limitations, fears, worries, or mistakes.
Instinctively, you may derive satisfaction from helping youngsters. The exact nature of your assistance
might be influenced by your talents as well as your knowledge and skills. Chances are good that you
might demonstrate how you value certain teammates and care about them as individuals. How?
Maybe you listen to them talk about their talents, successes, or aspirations. Some of the insights you
collect may prepare you to provide them with opportunities to grow personally or professionally. It’s
very likely that you may inspire individuals by telling them some of the things they do well. You
occasionally look for the good in human beings. Maybe you make sure they know how much you
appreciate their talents, attitude, and/or results. Certain people might thrive when you are part of their
lives. By nature, you sometimes inspire your teammates with words that bolster their confidence.
Maybe you remind them they have the abilities needed to attain their goals.
Responsibility
People who are especially talented in the Responsibility theme take psychological ownership of what
they say they will do. They are committed to stable values such as honesty and loyalty.
Driven by your talents, you may want to be regarded by certain people as reliable or dependable. To
create this impression, perhaps you consider specific things you could do better, more completely, or
more perfectly in the future. By nature, you might feel best about yourself when you are honest and
forthright. Perhaps telling untruths or omitting important facts violates your personal code of ethics.
Instinctively, you may be attracted to individuals whose honesty and integrity are above reproach.
Perhaps you seek to penalize people who betray trust by taking things without permission. It’s very
likely that you may reject the idea that telling a falsehood about something unimportant is acceptable.
Perhaps you refuse to make an innocent social excuse to protect someone’s feelings. Because of
your strengths, you might describe your life in favorable terms even when obligations force you to
keep working until a particular goal is reached.

Communication
People who are especially talented in the Communication theme generally find it easy to put their
thoughts into words. They are good conversationalists and presenters.
Driven by your talents, you sometimes enjoy being the person who gets people talking. When
outsiders or newcomers have little or nothing to say, you might find a way to involve some of them in
the dialogue. Instinctively, you sometimes enjoy amusing people. Perhaps you are happiest about life
when you can put individuals in a good mood. You might tell a few stories or jokes. You might offer
compliments. By nature, you may value the discussions you have with future-oriented thinkers. Maybe
you are attracted to those who enjoy your company and listen to your ideas. Because of your
strengths, you may be drawn to conferences, seminars, or classes where ideas about how to make
specific things better are exchanged. Perhaps you enjoy telling others about the upgrades you have
made. Maybe you emphasize some ways you increased efficiency. It’s very likely that you periodically
pine — that is, yearn or intensely long — to be with your friends. When this is impossible, you may
become more determined to draw newcomers and/or outsiders into your discussions.
Empathy
People who are especially talented in the Empathy theme can sense the feelings of other people by
imagining themselves in others’ lives or others’ situations.
Because of your strengths, you may be pleased when teammates trust you enough to tell you about
their ambitions, doubts, suggestions, worries, plans, concerns, or questions. It’s very likely that you
may be enthusiastic about life when individuals trust you enough to share some of their personal

thoughts and feelings. Chances are good that you occasionally take time to discover some of the
likes, dislikes, hopes, dreams, or idiosyncrasies of individuals. You might gain satisfaction from telling
people how much you value their contributions and accomplishments. Driven by your talents, you
sometimes engage outsiders or newcomers in small talk. Perhaps you sense when someone feels left
out of a conversation. Maybe you hope to make a few new friends by involving people in certain
activities. Once in a while, you comment favorably about the talents or accomplishments of specific
individuals. To some degree, you want them to know they are worthy of the time and effort you invest
in them. By nature, you may be impelled to cheer up those who feel excluded with encouraging words
or acts of kindness. Perhaps one of the reasons why you start conversations with outsiders is to make
them feel comfortable in unfamiliar surroundings. Maybe your smile, laughter, or friendly disposition
gives them a sense of safety. As a result, some timid individuals may decide to share bits and pieces
of their life story with you.
