The Command CliftonStrengths Theme forms part of the assessment carried out by us. Which helps you to discover what is that you do best naturally. Where your most potential lies, and what it is that makes you exceptional
People exceptionally talented in the Command theme have presence. They can take control of a situation and make decisions.
Our clients complete the CliftonStrengths assessment to learn which of the 34 themes, like Command, are found to be strongest in them.
The following definition describes the thoughts, feelings and behaviours you are likely to experience if you have strong Command:
Command leads you to take charge. Unlike some people, you feel no discomfort with imposing your views on others.
On the contrary, once your opinion is formed, you need to share it with others. Once your goal is set, you feel restless until you have aligned others with you. You are not frightened by confrontation; rather, you know that confrontation is the first step toward resolution.
Whereas others may avoid facing up to life’s unpleasantness, you feel compelled to present the facts or the truth, no matter how unpleasant it may be. You need things to be clear between people and challenge them to be clear-eyed and honest. You push them to take risks. You may even intimidate them. And while some may resent this, labelling you opinionated, they often willingly hand you the reins.
People are drawn toward those who take a stance and ask them to move in a certain direction. Therefore, people will be drawn to you. You have a presence. You have Command.

How to Better Understand Your Command Theme
Making the most of your Command talents starts with gaining valuable insights into what you naturally do best.
How people with strong Command talents describe themselves:
- “I am direct and decisive.”
- “I need challenges and conflicts.”
- “I love exerting control in situations that seem out of control.”
- “I hate passivity and avoidance.”
- “I bring emotional clarity.”
