Name: Lisa

Age: 41

Family Status: Single

Occupation: Certified project manager (specializing in telecommunications)

Strengths: Ability to remain focused under pressure, detailed-oriented and can thrive in a team environment

Weaknesses: Very shy when it comes to public speaking; when trying to resolve a personal or professional issue I can become too focused.

Biggest lesson from workshop: As a result of this workshop I now view what I believed to be my strengths in a different light. One of my biggest take always was the understanding that some of my strengths are actually survival skills (weaknesses) fine-tuned over many years, especially those utilized at work.

Update since workshop: I am currently working in my field, in a position which presents daily challenges. Since I'm in my area of expertise and enjoy my current position, I greet each working day with enthusiasm.

Goal: To utilize what I learned during the workshop to hone in my personal weaknesses and make the necessary modifications to minimize stress related circumstances
