Intelligence is a related concept in this<br \/>\nsituation and identifying other personality traits when deciding the corporation\u2019s course of<br \/>\naction.<br \/>\nSummary: When drought threatened the survival of a farming corporation (Auglaize<br \/>\nProvico), CEO Larry Hammond realised that he would have to change the business model.<br \/>\nHammond then implemented strengths-based development to leverage the unique<br \/>\nstrengths and talents of each employee. The strengths approach recognises that everyone<br \/>\nhas different talents and natural patterns of thought, feeling, and behaviour. Recognising<br \/>\nand building on those talents with pertinent skills and knowledge creates strengths.<br \/>\nAuglaize\u2019s management had previously used a \u201cdeficit\u201d development approach, spending a<br \/>\nlot of time identifying employees\u2019 weaknesses and trying to correct them. This meant that a<br \/>\nlot of Auglaize\u2019s management was relatively negative. Hammond wanted to change that<br \/>\napproach. Every employee in the corporation took an assessment to measure and identify<br \/>\nhis or her top five talents, and received at least two consultations on their individual<br \/>\nstrengths. This enabled Auglaize to build on what its employees naturally do best.<br \/>\nEmployees became more engaged, productive, and energised, and the organisation became<br \/>\nmore successful.<br \/>\nTask: A Group of 4 students should answer the following questions:<br \/>\n1. Do you think it is better to focus on assessing and developing employees\u2019 weaknesses, or<br \/>\nto focus on their strengths? Why?<br \/>\n2. Why would strengths-based development increase employee engagement? Provide<br \/>\nexamples.<br \/>\n3. If you were a manager, how might you interact with employees differently if you were<br \/>\nusing strengths-based development rather than deficit-based development?<\/p>\n<div id=\"slidingDiv\">\n<div id=\"divAttachment\" class=\"answer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/onlineclassesguru.com\/orders\/ordernow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTyj99p60XCLyLk1htB7-1neRt8-2QdnenNlQ&usqp=CAU\"target=\"_http:\/\/onlineclassesguru.com\/orders\/ordernow\"\/><\/center><p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learning Objective: This exercise incorporates many ideas in this unit with the main point reinforcing the fact that each individual is different.
