ANALYTICAL

People especially talented in the Analytical theme search for reasons and
causes. They have the ability to think about all the factors that might affect a
situation.

You can tell a person strong in Analytical by these attributes (source: Dr.
Hulme, APU):
* Search for reasons for why things are
* Cause and effect
* Want to see the evidence
* Ask questions
* Objective and data-driven
* Look for patterns and connections
* Logical and rigorous

More about Analytical:

* Needs on a team: To think critically
* As a Leader: Assess situations
* In Conflict: Can see all sides
* Partner with:
* In academics:

– loves to think critically — needs to respect the expert – put them in
courses where the professor is a noted authority, or is known for presenting
information in a logical, credible manner – this student is often critical,
especially of disorganized instructors – help them choose organized, coherent
profs that encourage critical thinking – encourage them to take some of the
“hard sciences” each term – this student is also often a sequential learner
who wants things laid out for them step-by-step – this is the student who
will appreciate creating an “action plan” or a 4-year graduation plan with
the advisor!

Where does Analytical Theme rank in the population?

* Overall, Analytical ranks 15th, occurring in around 13% of the population’s
Top Five (8% of Females and 21% of Males)

Out of your Top 5 CliftonStrengths, it’s statistically:

* most likely to appear with Learner and Achiever
* least likely to be found with Positivity or Woo

The genius of your Analytical talent begins with the way your mind works as it
automatically formulates penetrating questions. Your questions have a common
theme in that they are always “truth seeking”. Your genius analytical questions
seem to drill down with question after question until the truth is uncovered.
Questions of “How you know . . . ?”, “Why?”, “What evidence do you have . . .?”
and “Can you prove it . . .?” are constantly in your mind. But these questions
only lead to the deeper aspects of your genius Analytical talent the ultimate
genius of the Analytical talent involves the quality of your decisions, problem
solving and planning capabilities. Armed with the information generated through
your penetrating questions, you get to the rock-bottom issues that form a basis
for the highest quality of real decision making, problem solving, and strategic
planning. Moreover, your questions give you the facts and information needed for
excellence in decision making and planning.

At your best (Balcony):

* thinks things through, smart, logical, deep, thorough, comfortable with
numbers, figures, and charts

At your worst (Basement):

* Basement: slow to move and react to change, closed-minded, lives in the past

Analytical may be one of your signature themes if…

* You challenge others to prove the validity of their claims.
* You view yourself as objective and data-oriented.
* You use data to search for patterns, connections, and conclusions.
* You love to peel back the layers of data and questioning to derive the root
cause of a situation.
* You are viewed as logical, rigorous and refined.
* You use tact when sharing your analysis with others.
* Your greatest strengths are that you are: smart, thorough, comfortable with
numbers, and logical.
* Your greatest weaknesses are that you can be: tough, never satisfied, and too
full of questions.

A more detailed explanation from Gallup:

Your Analytical theme challenges other people: “Prove it. Show me why what you
are claiming is true.” In the face of this kind of questioning some will find
that their brilliant theories wither and die. For you, this is precisely the
point. You do not necessarily want to destroy other people’s ideas, but you do
insist that their theories be sound. You see yourself as objective and
dispassionate. You like data because they are value free. They have no agenda.
Armed with these data, you search for patterns and connections. You want to
understand how certain patterns affect one another. How do they combine? What is
their outcome? Does this outcome fit with the theory being offered or the
situation being confronted? These are your questions. You peel the layers back
until, gradually, the root cause or causes are revealed. Others see you as
logical and rigorous. Over time they will come to you in order to expose
someone’s “wishful thinking” or “clumsy thinking” to your refining mind. It is
hoped that your analysis is never delivered too harshly. Otherwise, others may
avoid you when that “wishful thinking” is their own.

Action Items for This Theme

* Choose work in which you are paid to analyze data, find patterns, or organize
ideas. For example, you might excel at research (e.g. marketing, financial,
medical), database management, editing, or risk management.
* Whatever your role, identify credible sources upon which you can rely. You
are at your best when you have well-researched sources of information and
numbers to support your logic. For example, determine the most helpful books,
Web sites, or publications that can serve as references.
* Develop your Analytical skills by getting to know and share ideas with the
outstanding analysts who specialize in your area.
* Take an academic course that will expand your Analytical strength.
Specifically, study people whose logic you admire.
* Volunteer your Analytical talent. You can be particularly helpful to those
who are struggling to organize large quantities of data or to bring structure
to their ideas.

Be ready to:

* Partner with someone with a strong Activator theme. This person’s impatience
will move you quickly through the analytical phase into the action phase.
* Listen to people with the Strategic, Belief, or Empathy themes. Their
insights and intuitions are difficult to measure, but are often accurate and
valuable nonetheless.
