Michael D.
One of the greatest leaders I had the chance to work with! Top leadership strengths I believe she possesses is resilience, humility, optimism and she always led a winning culture. Most of all, her integrity shines a light. She see’s the strengths in others and develops, inspires and drives what others never thought possible. Known for the “Rudy,” nights – so much can be captured by the movie of Rudy. Nikki, like Rudy, never gives up and is one of the most resilient and determined leaders but human I know of!

I was searching for a life coach to help me think about life’s next steps. Nikki is dialed in and helped me discover and understand my personal strengths and how to leverage them. Nikki’s coaching brought forward exactly what makes me tick and how to find satisfaction in my personal and professional life – and chart a course for a fulfilling destiny. I high recommend Nikki. She has the business smarts and knowledge to help you find your strengths and expand your possibilities.
Shalise P.
Nik was one of the very few leaders that I looked up to. She shared her free spirited, strong, leadership with me that I will always remember. She is not only an outstanding strong woman, but she is one of very few leaders who wasn’t afraid to give honest and constructive criticism to me. Best of all, I accepted it with all I had. It was a pleasure to work with her when I did. Sometimes I think, what would Nik do?

Today I’d like to give a nod to a woman hwo was a mentor to me early in my banking career, and her mentorship shaped who I am today. She took a young single mother under her wings and showed me that I can be a present and nurturing mother while being a driving force in banking. Nik Buus, you always have and will be a kick ass woman. Thank you for guiding me through the steps that allow me to continue and thrive in my banking career while successfully juggling mom life. ❤️
CliftonStrengths for Your Organization
Get the Best Out of Your People to Get the Best Out of Your Business
Workplaces that will win in the future require a change in strategy today. At the core of that strategy sits a focus on strengths.
CliftonStrengths solutions are essential to empowering your managers, developing your employees and improving your organization’s performance.
A winning culture is one that values strengths-based development. Because a strengths-based workplace is transformational; it’s a culture that focuses on continual growth and improvement among everyone in the organization.
1. Purpose vs. Paycheck
People want work that’s meaningful to them. Understanding where they’re strongest allows employees to connect with their company’s purpose.
2. Development vs. Satisfaction
People don’t really care about frivolous perks at work. They want to be developed in ways that tap into their natural talents so that they can succeed.
3. Coach vs. Boss
People want managers who can coach them to understand and apply their CliftonStrengths, and who value them as people and employees.
4. Conversations vs. Reviews
People want ongoing feedback and genuine discussions about how they’re doing, not a one-time and one-sided meeting.
5. Strengths vs. Weaknesses
People want the chance to do what they naturally do best, every day. Because weaknesses never turn into strengths, and strengths develop infinitely.
6. Life vs. Job
People want an authentic relationship with managers that includes talk about both work and life. They want to work somewhere that values their strengths and invests in their ongoing development.
