TheGiftednessCenterSM conducts ongoing research on giftedness with people of all ages—infants to elderly. However, formal assessment of motivational patterns (i.e., creating a Giftedness Profile®) is best suited for individuals who are at least 17 years of age.
For young children and their parents
We offer resources to help parents record observations about their child's giftedness and use those clues to guide their children. We also strongly recommend that parents obtain their own Giftedness Profile®, because they will inevitably parent according to their own giftedness. So it pays to know what that is!
For high school students
So many experts describe what is wrong with students. The Giftedness Center identifies what is right with them. A Giftedness Profile® for an older student proves invaluable as they head off to college (or wherever), because it endows them with a firm grasp of their core strengths and what they instinctively do best.
For college students
We can save the average family tens of thousands of extra dollars in educational expenses by helping their college-age student gain clarity and direction for what they want to do after graduating. In addition to Giftedness Profiling®, we offer a real-time, individualized coaching program that guides your student throughout their college years all the way into their first job or post-graduate schooling.
For young adults
Countless people in their late 20s and early 30s awaken to the chilling awareness that their chosen occupation is not what they're cut out for. What to do? The first step is to gain a precise picture of what one is cut out for through an assessment of giftedness. Then we can enroll you in a year-long process of developing a new vision for your life and getting you started on a personalized plan to pursuing it.
For individuals at mid-life
Every person eventually comes to the "halftime" of their life when it's time take stock and determine a "game plan" for the second half. Given that most Americans at age 50 have another 25-30 productive years ahead, answering the question What's next? is pretty important. We can show you what your best use is, and guide you as you sort through options.
For women in transition
Giftedness has special application to women facing choices about entering or exiting the workforce. A Giftedness Profile® can help you distinguish between your essential personhood and the various roles you may have filled in your life. As a result, you can make a wise decision by honoring what you love to do instead of just settling for what you can do.
For couples
We consistently find that marriages are transformed when the couple looks at each other through the lens of giftedness. By placing your Giftedness Profile® alongside of your spouse's, we can help you see what your partner is striving to do with their life, and how that affects the dynamics of your relationship. While we are not marriage counselors, we do assist couples who are making joint decisions. We especially recommend that engaged couples or newlyweds have their Giftedness Profiles® assessed, so as to live with each other in an understanding way.
For entrepreneurs
Hard-charging entrepreneurs frequently struggle in three areas: finding the right person to handle operations, recruiting a team for growth after start-up, and creating an effective exit strategy. All three areas require a customized plan—customized to the entrepreneur and to the business, because both are unique. We can help the entrepreneur develop and execute well-conceived plans that are built around the unique nature of the key leader.
For CEOs, senior-level executives, and successful professionals
A top-level leader's most valuable asset is time. Unfortunately, the choices are usually between good, better, and best. We can create mechanisms for allocating one's energy by pinpointing the leader's giftedness, then helping them refine their role so that they spend the bulk of their time in the "sweet spot" of their functioning. We can also answer the questions of Who else is required to make the leader effective? and In what relation to the leader?
For high-profile individuals
People at the top of their game are always looking for an edge. Athletes, politicians, musicians, media celebrities—the most successful consistently ask, How can I be the best at what I do? We can supply the most relevant information demanded by that question—namely, a precise description of how that individual is designed to function. By refining their efforts in accordance with their giftedness, they can plus their performance and break through previously insurmountable barriers. We can also help them determine What's next? when their current career comes to an end.
For high net-worth individuals and families
Money solves many problems, but it creates even more. One is the challenge of philanthropy. We can help philanthropists identify and invest the one asset that is infinitely more valuable than their money—their own giftedness. The result is giving that is far more satisfying and cost-effective.
