Abstract	The use of film as a teaching methodology in an undergraduate personal leadership development course helped students apply strengths-based leadership concepts. The film "Temple Grandin" was utilized to illustrate key concepts from Buckingham and Clifton's (2001) text, "Now, Discover Your Strengths". After completing the Gallup Clifton StrengthsFinder® assessment, students viewed the film "Temple Grandin" and identified Dr. Grandin's perceived top five strengths in relation to scenes from the film. Several lessons were devoted to the exploration and development of students' strengths. This practice paper describes the teaching methodologies employed and provides recommendations for leadership educators seeking to implement the use of film in their courses. (As Provided).
