Alissa Daire Nelson wants you to do what you do best, every single day!

As a certified Strengths Coach, Alissa knows from experience how our past career choices and education play such an important role in what we do now.  Alissa herself has reinvented her career several times; from dietician, to nurse, to direct sales consultant, to business owner and now a professional coach all of them adding a different dimension to what she can now offer her clients.

In this episode of the Bringing Business to retail podcast Alissa and I chat about how you can harness your efficiency and productivity by finding exactly what makes you tick.  Using a tool called the Strength Finder Alissa works to find five core strengths that highlight your uniqueness and how you best operate.

We discuss in detail how this psychometric tool is used to identify and celebrate your positive strengths and helps stop Limiting Beliefs.  At the same time knowing what makes you tick can help you identify gaps in your knowledge, which enables you to surround yourself with the employees and consultants you need, in order to grow personally and professionally
