When Bold Vision Meets Team Resistance

Ever felt like you’re charging ahead with a great idea—but your team just doesn’t follow?

That’s a common tension for the Visionary persona. Visionaries lead with energy, boldness, and conviction. They see what’s possible before others do. But when that drive for progress turns into urgency, others can experience it as pressure.

Here is an example of a coaching moment for the Visionary

Prompt:

“I keep pushing forward, but my team resists. I feel like they just don’t get the urgency.”

Coach’s Response:
Your bold drive is central to your Visionary persona—it’s what moves ideas into action. But urgency without alignment can trigger resistance. Try tilting toward Clarity, especially the strength of Perspective.

Ask your team:

“What part of this excites you?”

This simple question shifts the focus from speed to shared purpose. It invites buy-in instead of compliance and helps others see your vision as our vision.
