Ross’s particular strengths are among the 34 strengths identified in Rath, supra note 4. All of the fellows and mentors took the strengths self-assessment before the summer institute to identify their top five strengths, and we had the opportunity there to discuss our individual (and different) strengths and the how personal strengths can be used (or overused) in professional life.Google Scholar
