《Now, Discover Your Strengths 现在，发现你的优势》weekly bookclub meetup 英文读书会&社交英语角 交流无国界，友谊亦无边，英缘际会，语挚情深, 欢迎参加2026年2月23日城市部落英文读书会，社交英语角 weekly Language exchange & bookclub meetup Topic discussion主题讨论: 《SNow, Discover Your Strengths 现在，发现你的优势》》 英文读书会 Now, Discover Your Strengths: The revolutionary Gallup program that shows you how to develop your unique talents and strengths Many people have little sense of their talents and strengths, much less the ability to build their lives around them. Instead, they are raised and taught to become experts in their weaknesses — and spend their lives trying to fix them — while their strengths lie dormant. 此书在欧美一经上市，便一举登上最权威的《商业周刊》、《华尔街日报》和《纽约时报》商业畅销书榜首，并长期占据全美各类管理类图书畅销书冠军位置达一年之久。许多《财富》500 强的CEO称此书为“信息时代企业管理的最新发现”。至今销售量已经突破两千万册。参加请扫码报名：Venue: People Square in Shanghai 上海人民广场 Cost: 早鸟小红书转发分享活动公益免费，空降票50元/人，. Date & time: Feb 23 上午 10:00-12:30 你是不是也在“补短板”的漩涡里疲惫打转？ 这本书给了我当头一棒： 「辉煌的人生不是弥补弱点，而是发挥优势。」 Many people have little sense of their talents and strengths, much less the ability to build their lives around them. Instead, they are raised and taught to become experts in their weaknesses — and spend their lives trying to fix them —while their strengths lie dormant.. At the heart of this book is CliftonStrengths, the assessment that is the product of decades of research and hundreds of thousands of interviews to identify the most prevalent human strengths. CliftonStrengths reveals 34 dominant talent themes that you can translate into personal and career success. To develop this assessment, Gallup conducted psychological profiles with more than 2 million individuals to help people around the world focus and perfect these themes. Since Now, Discover Your Strengths was first released two decades ago, more than 20 million people worldwide have taken the CliftonStrengths assessment. 它彻底推翻了我从小被灌输的“勤能补拙”观念。 作者基于盖洛普对200万专业人士的长期研究， 出一个人最大的成长空间，不在弱点，而在与生俱来的天赋。 // 这本书厉害在哪？ ▪ 提出革命性“优势理论”，长期占据《华尔街日报》畅销榜榜首 // 这本书厉害在哪？ ▪️提出革命性“优势理论”，长期占据《华尔街日报》畅销榜榜首 ▪️核心是CliftonStrengths测评，已帮助全球超2000万人发现天赋 ▪️揭示了34种主导天赋主题（文末列出），我们每个人都拥有其中独特的组合 // 最戳中我的三点启发： 1️⃣重新定义“卓越”：卓越不是样样都好，而是把自己的核心天赋发挥到极致。找到它，才能事半功倍。 2️⃣打破“木桶理论”：传统教育总让我们补齐短板。但真正让你脱颖而出的，是你最长的那块板。 3️⃣优势是可以被“管理”的：书中不仅帮你识别天赋，更提供具体方法，教你将天赋转化为稳定输出的优势。 Have you ever felt like you're pushing against the current, working harder than everyone else yet achieving less? This frustration often stems from one simple truth: we're spending too much time trying to fix our weaknesses instead of maximizing our natural talents. Society has conditioned us to focus on our shortcomings, encouraging us to become well-rounded rather than exceptional. Schools identify where students fall short, workplaces highlight areas for improvement, and we internalize this approach, constantly trying to repair what's "wrong" with us. But what if this approach is fundamentally flawed? Research involving over two million professionals reveals that true excellence comes not from addressing weaknesses but from identifying and cultivating our innate talents. The most successful people in any field—from business leaders to artists, from teachers to scientists—don't achieve greatness by becoming adequate at everything. Instead, they achieve extraordinary results by understanding their unique strengths and deliberately organizing their lives around these natural talents. This book will help you discover your own signature talents, transform them into genuine strengths, and design a life that allows you to do what you naturally do best every day. // 如何发现你的优势信号？ 书中提到，当你对某件事有： 🔸渴望：情不自禁想去做 🔸学得快：比一般人掌握得更快 🔸满足感：做完后感到充实和愉悦 这很可能就是你的天赋所在。 盖洛普的34项优势主题（看看有没有你的关键词）： 成就、行动、适应、分析、统筹、信仰、统率、沟通、竞争、关联、回顾、审慎、伯乐、纪律、体谅、公平、专注、前瞻、和谐、理念、包容、个别、搜集、思维、学习、完美、积极、交往、责任、排难、自信、追求、战略、取悦。 这本书不只关于职业生涯， 更关于如何更自洽、更高效、更快乐地过好这一生。 如果你也厌倦了不停纠正自己， 渴望找到那条属于自己、毫不费力的成长快车道—— 这本书，或许就是你一直在等的指南针。 这本书讲解的是一套识别个人优势并将其发挥为才干的方案，最终目的是将才干变为优秀的工作表现。这套方案的核心是网上进行的优势识别器（Strengths Finder）测试，里面有34个主导“主题”及其成千上万的组合。读者通过这些测试和这本书的讲解，来了解如何最有效地将自己的优势和才干转化为个人和事业的成功。 我们知道，一个人的一生是追求成功的一生，成功一定要扬长避短，发挥优势。不幸的是，我们大部分人对自身才干和优势不甚了了，更不具备根据优势安排自己生活的能力。相反，在我们的父母、老师、经理和一心关注病态的心理学引导下，我们成为自身弱点的专家，为修补这些欠缺而一生追求，却对我们的优势不闻不问，任其荒废。 《现在，发现你的优势》不仅深入浅出地洞察才干转变为优势的过程，而且提供独一无二的个人优势网上测试。鉴于此，次书堪称有史以来最具开拓性和最实用的个人开发和组织管理专著之一。 Event schedule活动环节安排： 本活动参与人群定位为上海工作和生活的喜欢英语、热爱交流分享的青年白领，及高校师生。 Other Schedule 其它环节: Heads up words guessing欢乐猜词， MBTI自我介绍 What is your personality, Never have I ever我有你没有， 英文私董会 Mentor for each other.

Not at all. If you plan to read or have read it, that’s great; if you haven’t touched it, you’re still more than welcome to join. Come and meet like-minded people and connect over the topic as well as the book. How can I contribute to the discussion if I haven’t read the book? The book is simply a conversation starter - our discussions often branch out into related themes, personal experiences and broader topics of interest. Our gathering is more about socialising and engaging in decent conversations with book lovers, rather than a formal seminar. Can I also discuss my own fav book or the book I recently read? Absolutely! Our gatherings are all about open conversations, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on any book that’s been captivating to you. Is this group open to everyone? Yes - this is a friendly and inclusive group, welcoming everyone regardless of gender, sexuality, or background. The event is designed to make it easy to meet and connect with fellow book lovers in our community. What if I'm shy about speaking in front of the group? No pressure! You're welcome to participate in the way that feels most comfortable for you. Whether you share your views or just listen, your presence is valued. A lot of people come alone - so don't be shy!!

Hi, my name is Nigel. I graduated from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and began my career designing rocket components for China’s aerospace program. So unlike the so-called “rocket scientists” on Wall Street, I am the real deal. For the past 20 years, I have helped foreign businesses achieve a smooth landing in China, navigating everything from market strategy and regulatory compliance to local partnerships and execution. I speak the languages of engineering, mathematics, and cross-border business. Let us have a cup of tea at a peaceful Buddhist temple and talk business. We can brainstorm practical, real-world approaches to doing business in China. My associate and I also host business networking events and organize trips around China for professionals and entrepreneurs. Please add the WhatsApp contact above to connect and confirm details.

Always an overachiever, David Bayer didn't settle for being Number Two in just about anything. Whether a runaway entrepreneurial success as a teenager, the leading online director for Ducati with over $70 million in sales, or as an early mid-life crisis overachiever with at least three wildly self-destructive behavioral addictions, whatever David did, he did it wholeheartedly. Not surprisingly then, when it came to facing his failures and determining his next course of action, David sought health and healing with the same full-strength effort he had previously used to bring about his own ruination. Seeking to learn from the best of the best, David's pursuit of tangible, practical, actual change from the mind and emotions, outward, brought a new passion--that of encouraging others to learn from his mistakes and to be able to strive after and achieve healing and success in their own lives. We are reading *A Changed Mind*, by David Bayer, and can't wait to enjoy the group discussion on **Wednesday, March 4, 2026, 6:30 pm**, at **True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center**. Come join us! Get your tickets on [EventBrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/a-changed-mind-columbus-ohio-tickets-1978437853879)! Check us out on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/events/1390625182655746)!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! For this event, we’ll help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents, wash dishes and clean surfaces at Fath Mission – Grant Kitchen. We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. Our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:15am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1, indicated in the attached map. On-site and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: \* LSS Volunteer Guidelines: Uploaded to photos. \* Parking Map Info: Uploaded to photos. \* LSS Faith Mission Orientation Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp46_6ay6iA \* Link with Additional Details / Info: https://lss.vomo.org/opportunity/faith-mission-grant-kitchen-2025 IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing the all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With very few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. THANK YOU: This CMG Gives Back event provides an opportunity for YOU to get involved in helping others! Benefits go well beyond the help we give to others. Volunteering provides a wide range of personal benefits, including positive effects on mental and physical health, reduced stress/depression/anxiety, increased happiness and improved purpose, life-satisfaction and personal well-being! Plus, the opportunity to get involved, connect with others and help those in need. PARTNER AGENCY: This event is hosted by Lutheran Social Services (LSS), which serves thousands of people in need each day in 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing. LSS offers food through the LSS Food Pantries, housing and supportive services through LSS Faith Mission and LSS Faith Mission of Fairfield County homeless shelters, domestic violence services through LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, senior living and health care, affordable housing communities, and other services that uplift families and strengthen communities. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

We desire to cultivate a space where all questions are welcome and each person is treated with compassion and respect.
