2: CliftonStrengths Introduction

Learn about the history and methodology behind our tool. Created by Don Clifton and stewarded by the Gallup Organization, CliftonStrengths is a tool rooted in positive psychology — which seeks to nurture innate genius. As of January 2024, more than 31 million people globally have completed and it is written in 26 languages.

If you have previously completed CliftonStrengths34 (aka StrengthsFinder 2.0), you are encouraged to access your original report. For most people and in most situations, your first results are the most accurate and can be located by a Gallup representative if currently unavailable to you. Please send us a quick note and let us know how to proceed — we will get back to you as soon as possible.
