I recently had the pleasure of leading a workshop for a highly regarded company that is a global supplier of automobile parts. The workshop attendees were a diverse collection of creative and detail-oriented individuals who were all enthusiastic participants in the workshop. There was one individual who stood out, he walked up to me and introduced himself as an engineer by profession. He revealed that he is a skilled writer, a theatre aficionado, and has a passion for efficient communication.
During our conversation, the participant shared about a fantastic accomplishment he had in the past: he had applied for a job where only 18 out of 800 individuals were chosen. To his amazement, he was not only chosen but also given the task of overseeing the other 17 successful candidates. Although he expected to be a member of the core team, he was instead asked to lead and manage them, putting him a level above them.
What impressed me the most about this participant's experience was, how his strong communication skills were crucial to his achievement, yet he saw it as something basic. His ability to express ideas and persuade people impressed the interviewers, but it wasn't until he was hired that he realized the true worth of his communication abilities. This emphasizes the necessity of being self-aware of one's talents and flaws since this can help people realize their potential and achieve success.
The Jigsaw Discovery Tool is a wonderful resource for people who want to better understand their strengths and shortcomings. This tool assists people in identifying their natural abilities and determining how to best utilize them for increased performance. It also teaches people how to achieve a state of flow, in which they are completely engrossed in the activity at hand and functioning at their best. Individuals can obtain a better grasp of their strengths and how to use them for success in their personal and professional life by using this tool.
Here’s a glimpse of the stages of growth toward leadership that can be achieved with the help of the Jigsaw Discovery Tool:

We also provided the organization with an evaluation report for the session, which will be a useful tool in doing assessments and developing more specific individual development plans. This report will allow the organization to identify areas in which people thrive and areas in which they need to improve, allowing for a more customized approach to individual development. Using this assessment report, both the individual and the corporation can collaborate to foster positive progress.
