Harmonizers instinctively know how to channel the team’s energy and talent.
With equal skill in communication and organization, Harmonizers will try to make sense of everyone on the team, then find a way to play to each person’s strengths. With a Harmonizer on board, the team finds its rhythm. They can be of great use to a team with raw potential that’s still a little rough around the edges.
If this is your superpower:
You can usually get a professional performance out of an amateur team. But if your efforts are repeatedly stalling, take another look at the composition of the team and see if there are important missing skills.
Don’t forget to consider growth opportunities when optimizing the team. You may be able to get the right notes out of people, but the notes can start to feel flat if people are playing the same ones over and over.
If you’re working with them:
Harmonizers can be effective only if you trust them and their motives. Try to be as open, honest, and transparent as possible with them.
The more they know about you, the better they are at what they do. Tell them about your strengths, your limits, your ambitions. They’ll find a way to play up the best and turn down the rest.
