"Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?"
-- Benjamin Franklin

 PRESENTED by NAAAP Colorado and Welcome Denver 

Do you have the opportunity to do what you do best EVERY day?

Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths.

To help people uncover their talents, Gallup introduced the first version of its online assessment, StrengthsFinder, in the 2001 management book Now, Discover Your Strengths. The book spent more than five years on the bestseller lists and ignited a global conversation, while StrengthsFinder helped millions to discover their top five talents.

In StrengthsFinder 2.0 Gallup unveiled the new and improved version of its popular assessment, language of 34 themes, and much more. While you can read this book in one sitting, you'll use it as a reference for decades.

Loaded with hundreds of strategies for applying your strengths, this Wall Street Journal, Business Week, and USA Today bestseller will change the way you look at yourself -- and the world around you -- forever.

What is Welcome Denver?

Welcome Denver (WD) provides a total immersion opportunity for ethnically-diverse professionals at the mid-to-senior level, to help them connect with their peers, corporate and community leaders, professional associations, chambers of commerce, arts programs and institutions. (http://www.welcomedenver.net/)

Welcome Denver focuses on four key areas:

1. Quick community access and connectivity
2. Executive mentoring through topical discussions
3. Social networking
4. Cultural grounding

WD is a formal network comprised of new or recently relocated employees (0-3 years), supported by Denver metropolitan area companies.  WD provides quarterly informative sessions with subject matter experts on timely and relevant topics affecting multicultural professionals in the workplace and in social environments.  Each session typically is hosted by a member company at their facilities.  Since 2008, WD sessions were hosted by MillerCoors, Qwest, WellsFargo, Davis, Graham & Stubb and Integer Group. WD offers opportunities for spouses and partners to get rooted in the community for added connectivity while living and working in the Denver area.
