BUILDING RELATIONSHIP LITERACY FOR THE WORKPLACE

The science of 
capacity-building 
relationships

Growth, confidence, and values alignment are strengthened through others. Learn to build relationships that make you stronger under pressure.

THE FRAMEWORK

Three qualities. One integrated model.

This research-backed framework identifies the specific qualities of workplace relationships that generate courage, confidence, and integrity. Each quality asks a distinct question:

Does this relationship invest in your becoming?

Both people genuinely want to see the other reach their full potential. Feedback flows in both directions. Disagreements become learning opportunities. Development support is never one-sided or steered toward someone else's agenda.


SELF-DETERMINATION THEORY MECHANISM
Autonomy, Development-Focused

Does it strengthen your belief in your ability to get there?

These relationships strengthen each person's belief in their own capabilities, particularly under pressure. These relationships strengthen each person's belief in their own capabilities, particularly under pressure. Each person helps in ways that teach the other to stand on their own, so the confidence lasts even when they're apart.


SELF-DETERMINATION THEORY MECHANISM
Competence

Does it keep you rooted to who you already are?

The quality that makes Anchor Relationships® categorically different. These relationships help people access and act on their own authentic values without fear of losing the connection. Difficult conversations let people feel more like their true self.

THE ASSESSMENT

What the assessment measures

The assessment reveals three layers of insight from one person's perspective: how you're showing up, how the relationship is functioning, and what it's producing that you cannot access alone.

THREE ASSESSMENT OPTIONS

See how your relationships are working

All three assessments show how relationships elevate or undermine performance well-being.

COACH MEDIATED

Personal Exploration

INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT

See a relationship the way you actually experience it, with a Certified Coach reading the pattern alongside you, so your next move comes from a clearer picture rather than a hunch.

  • One relationship, seen from both sides and measured 
by behavior

  • A Certified Coach reads both reports as one picture 
and holds the continuity

  • See where you read it the same and where you 
read it differently

  • Leave with a shared set of goals, and coaching 
to build what neither builds alone

COACH MEDIATED

Becoming Anchors

TWO-PERSON ASSESSMENT

For two people who both want to optimize their working relationship. You assess it from both sides, and a Certified Coach will turn the two reports into 
a shared set of goals.

  • One relationship, seen from your
perspective and measured by behavior

  • A Certified Coach interprets the scores and what connects them

  • Learn how this relationship affects you and how you affect the other person

  • Decide where to invest and what to change from solid ground

COACH-MEDIATED

TEAM ASSESSMENT

Team assessments reveal how relationships across a group function as a system. Each person assess their relationships. The paired data reveal dynamics that no individual viewpoint can access. A Certified Coach administers the full process and interprets results through a team-level session.

What it reveals

The cohort report shows whether a performance, safety, or culture problem lives in specific relationships or in the team’s relational norms. That distinction makes targeted interventions possible.

Measuring psychological safety

Identify the presence of relational behaviors that produce psychological safety, such as speaking up when it’s easier to stay silent and treating disagreements as learning opportunities, among others.
