Working under a Relationship Building leader usually feels positive and connected. They create a people-centred environment where trust grows and collaboration feels natural.

They unite the team, making space for everyone’s strengths to shine. However, they also need to balance empathy with objectivity—especially if a team member’s behaviour affects quality. Here, more pragmatic colleagues can help ensure that team well-being and performance stay aligned.

While some qualities can make leadership easier, there’s no single “perfect” profile. When we know our own strengths, we better understand what kind of leader we are—and what kind of team we need to thrive together. If you’d like to explore your leadership style through the lens of CliftonStrengths® and see how it shapes your team’s success, let’s map it out together.
