💡 What is Consistency?

Consistency is an Executing talent in CliftonStrengths.

People with a strong Consistency talent have a deep sense of the need to treat everyone fairly. They crave stable routines and clear rules and procedures that everyone can follow.

With Consistency, you become a “fairness gatekeeper.” You believe that people perform best in an environment where the rules are transparent and applied equally. Clarity, predictability, and impartiality are the foundations that help you build trust and sustainable performance for your team.

✨ The Power of Consistency

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

  • Bring stability and reliability in the way of working.

  • Establish clear “common rules of the game” to help everyone feel secure and focus on work.

  • Make fair and unbiased judgments.

  • Reduce excessive variation, increase consistency within the organization.


⚠️ Blind Spots - Blind spots to avoid

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

  • It can be too rigid to stick too closely to rules, even in situations where flexibility or personalization is needed.

  • It's easy to prioritize procedural fairness over actual outcomes, leading to overlooking superior or creative contributions.

  • When working with someone who has a flexible or individualistic style, it is easy for misunderstandings or conflicts to arise about how to work.


🛠️ How to sharpen Consistency

You can start with simple things:

  • Create clarity in how you work, help people understand expectations, processes, and feel treated fairly.

  • Build an environment with stable rules, thereby helping the team work effectively and feel secure about the "common rules of the game".

  • Be the voice of fairness in the group, helping to make unbiased judgments or decisions.


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