Strengthscope® is not a measure of competence but can give us a good indication about a person’s likely areas of greatest competence. It measures strengths, i.e. those things that energize us and make us feel positive and confident. It could be that a lower score, or non-strength, indicates something that provides little to ‘energize’ us, or it could be that a non-strength is something that is actually weakening for us if we do too much of it. It is also possible (although less likely) that one or more of the “Significant Seven” strengths are not areas in which the person is particular competent or proficient, as they don’t have the skills, knowledge and/or experience to fully apply the strength. This is less likely because many people gain feelings of strength and energy from doing something well.
