Shared Theme Description
People who are especially talented in the Input theme have a craving to know more. Often they like to
collect and archive all kinds of information.
Your Personalized Strengths Insights
What makes you stand out?
By nature, you value time alone to pursue your favorite pastime: thinking. Characteristically you
scrutinize issues, theories, concepts, or philosophies from a variety of angles. Examining a topic is
one way you familiarize yourself with its unique vocabulary. Often these terms are esoteric — that is,
understood by only a specialized group. Once you have thoroughly schooled yourself in a subject, you
probably seek opportunities to speak and/or write about it. Because of your strengths, you capitalize
on your ability to ask questions and listen to people’s answers, especially when meeting strangers or
newcomers. You might even be tempted to eavesdrop on what they are telling someone else. Not
wanting anyone to feel like an outsider, you are apt to draw individuals into the conversation.
Unquestionably, you search for reasons to involve them in your own or the group’s activities.
Instinctively, you may pay close attention to specific categories of current events. Some people
merely recount what they heard, saw, or read. Perhaps you dive deeper into the topic. You might
generate a few theories, concepts, or philosophies to explain some of the reasoning behind certain
newsmakers’ decisions. Sometimes you can gather information about events, policy statements,
people, or crises. Your fresh insights might draw equally engaged thinkers into the conversation.
Chances are good that you attempt to surround yourself with thinkers. When you encounter them, you
might share a few of your latest theories, concepts, or philosophies. You might place a special value
on these conversations. Occasionally they might supply you with a new idea or a fresh perspective.
Perhaps you gather information, store it in your mind, or somehow document it. You may not know at
that moment how something you have heard, read, or observed will lead you to another discovery or
insight. It’s very likely that you frequently use academic-sounding words to talk about your ideas or
areas of expertise. You intentionally spend time broadening your vocabulary by looking up words in
the dictionary and committing their meanings to memory.

by one. Your ongoing observations of selected individuals probably provide you with interesting
insights into human nature. It’s very likely that you prefer to concentrate on activities, problems,
opportunities, or subjects that really intrigue you. Each time you acquire new information, you feel you
can help people who need the same information. By nature, you are motivated to continually acquire
knowledge and skills. Discovering new ways to use your talents energizes you. You are likely to
escape from situations and avoid people who want you to keep doing what you already know how to
do well. Maintaining an intellectual status quo is unacceptable to you. Chances are good that you are
grateful when your questions are answered, your studies yield new information, or your knowledge
increases. You routinely deepen your understanding through conversations, the media, the Internet,
books, or classes. You resist spending the majority of your time on topics that are not in line with your
natural abilities. Instead, you choose to take advantage of your talents — and by doing so, you
consistently produce topnotch results. Instinctively, you are drawn to the process of gaining
knowledge and skills. You long to build on what you already know. You yearn to improve on what you
already can do. When you meet people who value education as much as you do, you are eager to
hear about their personal or professional ambitions, intentions, or goals. Understanding what others
aim to accomplish in the coming weeks, months, or years can be the beginning of a practical
partnership or an enduring friendship.

4. Harmony
Shared Theme Description
People who are especially talented in the Harmony theme look for consensus. They don’t enjoy
conflict; rather, they seek areas of agreement.
Your Personalized Strengths Insights
What makes you stand out?
Instinctively, you adopted a practical outlook on life during childhood. You figured out how to avoid
“rocking the boat” — that is, how not to cause trouble or disrupt an otherwise stable situation. This
was true in your relationships with not only children, but also adults. Today, you have a knack for
treating everyone the same. You want the environment and everyone in it, including yourself, to
behave in a predictable, calm, and cordial manner. Chances are good that you usually find a practical
way to accomplish whatever you set out to do. You think of methods to make tasks easier for yourself

time, effort, or energy. You exhibit a strong drive to see things through from start to finish.
Undoubtedly, you appreciate people who do not quit in the middle of a project. It’s very likely that you

practical reasons, you do not want any one thing to consume every minute of your day. Thus, you
choose to handle personal and professional problems logically. You deal with facts unemotionally.
You intentionally minimize conflict between people by not taking sides. Instead, you make them aware
of things as they actually are. You emphasize what they have in common. Patiently, you move
adversaries toward peaceable solutions and general agreement. Driven by your talents, you arrive at
goal-setting sessions clearheaded about the way things really are. By helping others concentrate on
the facts, you regularly move away from the distraction of emotions. As a result, those involved are
likely to appreciate the calming effect you have on them. Not only do they make progress on setting
their objectives; they also remain on friendly terms with one another once the meeting ends. Because
of your strengths, you are willing to work with your coworkers, classmates, teammates, family
members, and friends. You realize everyone sees opportunities, problems, solutions, and events
differently. While you have opinions, you refrain from imposing them on others. You are good-natured
— that is, you have a pleasant, cheerful, and cooperative disposition.
