Picture of the productThe Strengths Game
A game about using strengths to solve life’s problems.

Robert Biswas-Diener’s The Strengths Game is intended to teach players about strengths and how they might be used. Play with between 3 – 7 players, and collect the most points by presenting the best strengths for tacking workplace issues.

Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener is widely known as the “Indiana Jones of psychology” because his research on happiness and other positive topics has taken him to such far-flung places as Greenland, Kenya and India. He specializes in the topics of income and culture, respectively, as they relate to subjective well-being. He is also well known for collecting data with difficult to access groups such as Amish farmers, sex workers in Kolkata, Palestinian peace protesters, Inuit seal hunters and the Maasai. His research has resulted in 50 published academic journal articles and chapters as well as 8 books on topics ranging from happiness to courage to strengths to coaching.
