Firing Up Your Vision, Purpose & Strategic Thinking
November 20, 2025
A compelling vision isn’t just a fancy statement on the wall—it’s the fuel that powers people and organisations forward. But… it only works when it’s lived, not just a glitzy statement thrown about.
At StrengthsTrail, we see incredible things happen when leaders anchor their vision and purpose in their strengths. When they do, it’s far more authentic and as a result the vision feels real, energising, and contagious.
Here’s a simple strengths-based exercise to get you closer to your purpose:
Write down your top 3 strengths.
Ask yourself: How can I use these to create impact beyond myself?
Craft one guiding statement from your answers—a mini “north star.”
For instance:
A leader with Strategic might define their purpose as “charting a path through complexity so others can move with clarity.”
A leader with Empathy could say, “creating spaces where people feel seen, safe, and valued.”
When your vision aligns with your natural strengths, it not only inspires trust—it drives long-term results. Because people can feel when you’re leading from a place of genuine purpose. And, you’ll feel better too.
This is what we help leaders uncover at StrengthsTrail: that sweet spot where strengths meet meaning.
