3. Harmony
Shared Theme Description
People who are especially talented in the Harmony theme look for consensus. They don’t enjoy
conflict; rather, they seek areas of agreement.
Your Personalized Strengths Insights
What makes you stand out?
Instinctively, you seek objective advice when situations are unclear, confusing, or tainted by political
undercurrents. Being a realist, you know that others often have access to specific facts, see things
from an insider’s perspective, or possess expertise you lack. You tend to put off adopting any
suggestion until you have had sufficient time to give every idea equal consideration. By nature, you
sometimes turn to knowledgeable and experienced individuals to help you pinpoint areas where you
need to do something better. Perhaps you seek their counsel about personal or professional matters.
You might trust that their answers are correct or that their solutions are feasible — that is, doable and
suitable. Chances are good that you periodically rely on the expertise of others to identify the proper
solution, decision, or maneuver. Perhaps you feel a bit more sure of yourself when a specialist
approves your plan before you start something. Once in a while, you hope one of them says, “You
have made the best possible choice.” To some extent, you may trust them to be more knowledgeable
than you are in certain situations. Because of your strengths, you inspire cooperation in others when
you admit you are unsure about what to do and ask for advice. You gather ideas and consider
suggestions in a straightforward manner. Traditionally, you make it easier for people to talk with one
another before they reach their wit’s end — that is, they feel puzzled after exhausting their ideas or
resources. Routinely, the conversations you start lead to agreements that work well for everyone
involved. It’s very likely that you tend to be more practical than creative. You usually think through
problems or situations step by step. You identify the facts to make the unknown known. You fill in
missing information. You clarify ideas, proposals, or rules. Using your intelligence or common sense,
you diplomatically show people what is true and what is false. Generally you are the unifying force
between individuals who are upset, mad, irritated, or in direct conflict with one another.
