Expanded Anniversary Edition
by Tom Rath and Donald O. Clifton, Ph.D.
Gallup Press
July, 2009
From the faltering economy to ever-rising unemployment rates, the national mood is negative and almost inescapable. But Gallup has continued to keep its focus on the positive, with the success of its strengths-based books, StrengthsFinder 2.0 and Strengths Based Leadership. And now, five years after its original release -- and with more than half a million copies in print -- Gallup Press is publishing the expanded Anniversary Edition of HOW FULL IS YOUR BUCKET?
This edition of the strengths-based classic includes updated research and content, with a removable workbook for individual, team and organizational development. Authored by the late Donald O. Clifton and Gallup executive Tom Rath, the book combines more than 50 years of research into the effects of positive psychology with a long-told story at Gallup -- the Theory of the Dipper and the Bucket. This analogy suggests that each person has an invisible bucket of emotions, along with a dipper, which he or she can use to either add to other people's buckets or to dip from them. In the end, research shows that filling someone else's bucket benefits both parties -- the person who gave the praise and the person who received it.
HOW FULL IS YOUR BUCKET? is filled with sound advice for executives hoping to reap the tangible benefits of a positive atmosphere in the workplace. It also offers great insights to anyone who wants a better life -- both at home and at work.
Tom Rath has written three international bestsellers in the past decade, and he currently leads Gallup's workplace research and leadership consulting worldwide. His 2007 book, StrengthsFinder 2.0, is a long-running #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller and was listed by USA Today as the top-selling business book of 2008. Rath's latest book, Strengths Based Leadership, encompasses decades of research on the topic of leadership. Published in January 2009, the book immediately became a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller. In total, Rath's books have made more than 100 appearances on the Wall Street Journal bestseller list.
Donald O. Clifton, Ph.D. (1924-2003), was cited by the American Psychological Association as the Father of Strengths Psychology. He was a chairman of Gallup, Inc., and he invented the Clifton StrengthsFinder, an assessment that has helped millions of people around the world discover their talents. He coauthored several books, including the bestseller Now, Discover Your Strengths.
