Overview
In March 2014, Leadership Rhode Island, in partnership with Gallup, launched Make RI Stronger, a multi-year initiative to dramatically improve Rhode Island through strengths-based training and education. This initiative emerged in response to a 2013 State of the American Workplace report that indicated RI had the highest percentage of ‘actively disengaged’ workers in the entire country and also to the oft-mentioned concern that Rhode Island suffers from low self-esteem and negative attitudes.
Make RI Stronger Impact
Thousands of managers, administrations, employees, self-employed people, job seekers and students have discovered their personal strengths since LRI launched this campaign. Many have learned how to apply their strengths with the help of 58 LRI-certified Strengths Coaches. And we're far from done. Here's just a snapshot of what we have achieved, together with our partners and the support of Gallup, since we launched in 2014.
