You are more than
your
Certificate
Find out,
what’s inside you.
The digital Strengths Sieve
You can be yourself.
You can discover what makes you special.
At your own pace. In your own way.
Welcome to the Strengths Sieve
The Strengths Sieve helps you to visualize your skills and interests.
Step by step, a picture of your personal priorities emerges.
You can try out, change and develop everything.
Your strength circles
This is where you gather everything that makes you special.
There are four circles with different guiding questions:
🔵 What are you good at?
🔴 What do you love?
🟠 What is needed?
🟢 What is paid for?
You can edit, delete, reassign or weight your strengths at any time.
Nothing is final – your image can grow.
Enter strengths
Write your strength in the field – for example:
- Listen well
- Encourage others
- Be organized
- be creative with media
- Keep at it, even when the going gets tough
- take responsibility in groups
- Stay calm under stress
They don’t have to be extraordinary talents.
Strengths are often revealed in everyday life – at school, in sport, in friendships or in commitment. Everything that makes you special can be listed here.
Categories & Weighting
Click on the colored mini-circles below the field to assign your strength to an area.
Then rate them with a number from 1 to 5:
1 means: rather weak.
5 means: very strong and typical for you.
This will reveal which strengths particularly characterize you.
Off to the big circle
Click on “Save strength”.
Your entry appears as a word in the large circle.
The more you have rated a strength, the larger it is displayed.
This gradually creates a visible picture of your key areas.
You can move the words with the mouse and arrange them in a way that makes sense to you.
Edit & organize
Click on a strength to see details and weighting
(e.g. “Teamwork (3x)”).
You can adjust the text, change the rating or delete the strength.
Everything can be revised at any time.
Use detailed view
Below the circle you will find a list of all the strengths entered.
There you can view each strength again, check the weighting and – as in the circle – edit or delete it.
This allows you to keep track of your collection at all times.
Discover more circles
At the top left you will find the other circles:
🔵 What are you good at?
🔴 What do you love?
🟠 What is needed?
🟢 What is paid for?
You can start with any circle – there is no fixed order.
Click through and fill them in one by one.
Evaluations
In the “Evaluations” section you will find reports such as:
- your strengths check
- suitable professions
- how your strengths help you to solve a specific problem
- Which hero or heroine from the book or movie resembles you
Click on “Start evaluation”, add your own notes if necessary and wait for your result.
(We use ChatGPT for this – the data you enter will be processed for this purpose).
The more strengths you have entered, the more differentiated and helpful your evaluation will be.
Login
You can also work without logging in.
However, your strengths will not be saved permanently and may be lost when you close the page.
If you would like to save your strengths profile and continue it later, please register.
Export & save
You can save your strengths as a Word, CSV, JSON or PDF file using the download icon.
This way you can save your profile, pass it on or use it again later.
(PDF will be available shortly.)
Start everything anew
You can delete all entries with the recycle bin icon and start again from the beginning.
If you would like to rebuild your profile, you can do so at any time.
Your data will then be permanently deleted.
💡 Tip: Think about concrete situations
Don’t just think abstractly, but ask yourself:
When did I last show this strength?
Concrete examples will help you to assess your abilities more realistically.
💡 Tip: Ask others for their views
Friends, family or teachers often see strengths that you yourself take for granted.
A brief exchange can broaden your picture.
💡 Tip: Development also counts
Maybe something isn’t perfect yet – but you’re on your way.
Allow your strengths to grow.
💡 Tip: Take your time
You don’t have to complete everything in one go.
Sometimes new thoughts only emerge after a few days.
💡 Tip: Your profile is not a test
There is no “right” or “wrong”.
The Strengths Sieve helps you to understand yourself better – not to evaluate yourself.
💡 Tip: Think in all four perspectives
Some strengths are particularly evident in what you are good at.
Others in what you love.
Still others are where something is needed or for which you are paid.
Switch consciously between the circles – new thoughts often arise.
💡 Tip: Overlaps are particularly exciting
Pay attention to where several circles intersect.
This is where ability, motivation, need and opportunity come together.
These intersections can provide clues to your personal focus.
Your strengths will become clearer and clearer over time. Give yourself space to discover them.
Discover what you’re made of – with the Strengths Sieve
Sometimes you don’t really know what you’re made of.
You can do a lot of things, but what is really typical of you?
The Strengths Sieve helps you to find out exactly that – step by step.
It’s like a treasure hunt for what makes you special.
💬 Not a test, but real coaching
The Strengths Sieve is not a personality test that pigeonholes you or tells you “this is who you are”. It’s the other way around: you learn to find your own answers. You are coached, not assessed.
You observe yourself, are inspired by questions and put your strengths into your own words. This is how you discover what makes you you – genuine, individual and without filters.
💪 Your strengths – your compass
The Strengths Sieve revolves around four simple but powerful questions:
- 🔵 What are you good at?
- 🔴 What do you love?
- 🟠 What is needed?
- 🟢 What is paid for?
When you answer them, your personal strengths picture emerges.
You recognize where your energy lies – and perhaps also where your path is leading you. It’s not about being perfect, but about understanding yourself better.
📱 Always with you – when and where you want
The cool thing is that you can use the Strengths Sieve anywhere.
Whether on your laptop, tablet or simply on the go on your cell phone – you can keep going whenever you think of something. Your profile grows with you – bit by bit. So: cell phone out, idea in, done 💪.
🌸 Related to the Ikigai – but with its own vibe
You may be familiar with the Ikigai – a Japanese model designed to show what gives your life meaning. The Strengths Sieve goes in a similar direction, but in its very own way. It’s not about a grand philosophy of life, but about you in real life: What you’re good at, what you love and what really makes a difference to others.
It can also be about money – but it doesn’t have to be. It’s more important that you discover what really makes you feel alive and what feels right for you.
🌱 Why it’s worth it
The Strengths Sieve helps you to see yourself more clearly. You get:
- more self-confidence,
- more motivation,
- and more direction for decisions that suit you.
And that’s what it’s all about – you.
✨ Your journey starts now
Set off on your journey. Answer the questions honestly, try things out and have fun discovering yourself. There is no right or wrong – only you and your own path.
Because there is more to you than you think. And the Strengths Sieve helps you to bring it to light. 🌞

The digital Strengths Sieve is still under development.
And that’s exactly why your opinion counts.
What did you like? What helped you to think about yourself?

What else would you like to see?
Your feedback helps us to make the Strengths Sieve simpler, easier to understand and more helpful – for you and for many other young people.

We read all feedback personally – and incorporate it into further development.

The Strengths Sieve for your consulting and your organization
In the future, we would like to give coaches, consultants and anyone who works with young people on a full-time or voluntary basis the opportunity to integrate the Strengths Sieve directly into their own website – in their own branding and as their own tool.
This way, the Strengths Sieve can become part of your educational work – in schools, youth groups, voluntary service or coaching.
It will also be possible to register as a coach and accompany young people digitally in discovering their strengths – together, respectfully and at eye level.
Are you interested? Feel free to ask us.
Invest in the strengths of the next generation
The digital Strengths Sieve makes personal development accessible to young people in a low-threshold, data-secure and location-independent way. It combines digital innovation with human support – creating a new culture of encouragement.
Since 2017, we have accompanied over 1,200 young people with the Strengths Sieve. Our experience from 30 years of youth work, the support of over 800 volunteers and a broad network of schools, communities and partner organizations qualifies us to implement this project sustainably. We combine pedagogical expertise, in-house digital development and established networks – a combination that rarely comes together.
Our vision is big, but concrete:
120,000 young people should discover their strengths by 2027 – supported by 1,000 volunteer coaches in 30 organizations. The digital Strengths Sieve is not just a tool, but the core of a scalable network for self-confidence, orientation and social participation.
With your sponsorship you enable:
- further technical development (accessibility, data protection, multilingualism),
- the development of a digital training platform for volunteer coaches,
- the scaling of a nationwide multiplier network,
- access for young people – regardless of origin or income.
You invest not just in software, but in people.
Not in short-term measures, but in sustainable impact.
Together, we can give young people what they need most urgently today: orientation, self-confidence and perspective.
Let’s start a conversation.
