💡 What is Belief?

Belief is a strength of the Executing group in CliftonStrengths.

People with outstanding Belief talent possess unchanging core values . From those values, a clear purpose for their life is formed.

With Belief , you believe that success is about more than money or fame. This belief brings meaning and satisfaction to your life, helping you persevere through temptations and obstacles. Consistency in your values makes you a trustworthy person. You seek work and relationships that align with your values, because it has meaning and contributes to your life purpose.

✨ The Power of Belief

When used properly, Belief can become a “superpower” that helps you:

  • Brings a sense of trust and service.

  • Always responsible and have high professional ethics.

  • Create stability, clarity and strong belief within a team.

  • Willing to sacrifice for important things.


⚠️ Blind Spots - Blind spots to avoid

Belief is a great talent, but if you're not careful, you can fall into a few “traps”:

  • Don't impose values: Avoid forcing others to "believe" if they have different starting points or views. Avoid rigidity: Don't let beliefs become so fixed that they resist any necessary changes.

  • Set unrealistic values → easily disappointed or give up when not achieved.

  • Only talking about ideals, no action → easily seen as "empty talk".


🛠️ How to sharpen Belief

You can start with simple things:

  • Affirm core values: Actively share and emphasize fundamental principles (responsibility, ethics, service...) to guide the group's actions, helping everyone understand "why" they work.

  • Choose value-aligned projects: Select and propose initiatives that are truly aligned with personal passions and beliefs, from philanthropy to sustainability.

  • Interpret values into short, vivid messages to inspire and create trust with listeners.


💡 This is just a small part of how to develop Belief . In Vietnam Strengths Academy workshops, you will be equipped with specific methods to maximize Belief and other strengths.


🤝 The Strengths That Make Belief Shine
