Overview
You can't fight your basic nature. But if you can understand it, you can
succeed.
"Twelve specific and very important cognitive functions begin developing
in the brain at birth. These ""skills? are built in to every individual
and are fully developed -- and unchangeable -- by adulthood. Everyone
has these same capabilities, but to varying degrees. And it is this
unique and unalterable combination of one's strengths and weaknesses
that determines success or failure in any given role.
Smarts contains the groundbreaking Executive Skills Profile: a
powerful self-assessment tool that will identify, once and for all, a
person's innate strengths and weaknesses. The results offer tangible
proof of why we gravitate to certain tasks and struggle with others.
With this newfound clarity, readers will learn to play to their stronger
skills, and avoid wasting time on lesser ones they can never improve
upon. Most important, they will discover their own unique potential for
excellence.
Supported by proprietary primary research and grounded in widely
accepted principles of clinical and neuro-psychology, Smarts is a
truly eye-opening book that will change how we think about ourselves --
and others."
