Spark Session

The Spark Session is the foundational element in Canon Collaborative services and offerings.

There is no existing mould for your strength. No one else in the world has your subset of strength and the experiences that have borne and refined them. No one else brings the magic that you bring to your ecosystems. Spark Sessions are designed to explore your highly unique subset of CliftonStrengths and the conditions that activate them.

All Spark Sessions conducted via Zoom.

Grounding Journey

Our flagship interactive online course includes three Spark Sessions — allowing for full exploration of your strength profile combined with video lessons to learn about our nature-inspired approach to cultivating them. This course includes robust and personalized tools to nurture your strength and contribution with a focus on wellbeing and collaboration.

Explore your natural patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving through which strength can emerge

Exploring strength gives access to language…

  • to the ways of being and thinking you’ve likely held since you were a kid.

  • to the threads running through your life, career, and activities.

  • to that distinct feeling in your experience that you can’t quite put words to.

Entire universes can open up when we have access to this language, we can…

  • find greater clarity on what is required to activate our strength and be empowered to claim it.

  • take hold of our potential and be the conductor of our own strength and contribution.

  • harness our rhythms of thinking, feeling, and behaving and direct them with intention

Exploring opportunities to design greater access to our natural strength by…

  • grow​ing​ cognizance of our strengths’ freedom and building strategies for encountering resistance

  • Illuminating opportunities through recognizing openings and opportunities for a greater flow of strength​

  • ​identifying ​necessary environmental design changes​ and adjustments to enhance the flow of strength​ [these changes can’t always happen overnight.]

If we further explore together we’ll be able to…

FAQ

  • This survey contains 177 questions with a 5-point scale to determine your relationship to “this or that” with a 20-second response timer. We recommend that you complete in an environment free of distraction. It takes anywhere from 25-45 minutes to complete.

    Please note the timer can be removed for accessibility.

  • In most situations, your original report is the most accurate. Gallup has ample research to show that our strengths remain consistent over time. In certain situations, as in a significant life event or a distracted response environment, retaking the survey could be beneficial. If you’d like to discuss prior, please contact us.

  • These one-hour 1:1 sessions are conducted via Zoom. You will receive two introductory videos to watch and encourage you to make note of any questions to bring to our live session.

    During these sessions, information is displayed regarding each CliftonStrength via screen share. These verbal and visual prompts spark conversation surrounding your relationship to the information. Our Strength Guides are trained to openly explore interactions between your unique subset strengths within their various experiences and environments. The substance of these sessions are fully confidential and not shared with anyone in your team or organization.
