We spend so much time and energy at work, and yet the world still hungers for solutions. The challenges … out there are waiting to be solved and are too important to allow any one of us to sit still, hiding our abilities instead of embracing our superpowers and taking them with us to the office, factory, coffee shop, seat 24B, or wherever we work today.”

You can easily gain the transparency and assurance to find the superpowers you have and that can make a difference in the work you do and in the community around you, by joining what Darcy calls the “red cape revolution,”

 Darcy claims “Your ‘superpowers’ are more than just your strengths; they are the unique, powerful things about you that allow you to make a valuable contribution to your world. They come from a combination of your relationships, your learnings, your failures, your assets, your gifts, your experiences, your community, and your resources.”
