Where do people fit in a team?

Our ability to function effectively with others in a team is down to a number of factors, which include personality traits, attitudes, behaviours and preferred roles.

One of the most important factors, often almost completely overlooked, is the motivational profile of the individual and of the individual compared with the team profile.

For teams to grow and thrive they need to be aware of each other’s motivational profile and be able to fuel the motivators of other team members.

Why use Motivational Maps?

There are many buzzwords going around at the moment, such as adaptability, innovation, and wellbeing, to name just a few, all of them claiming to hold the Holy Grail solution to business success. However, none of these can exist without first having motivation.

Used by over 70,000 people around the world, Motivational Maps are an accurate self-perception inventory based on three clusters of motivation: motivation through your relationships, motivation through your own achievements, and motivation through your individual growth. Motivation is directly correlated to productivity. The more motivated we are, the more energy we have, and therefore the more productive we become. By harnessing the power of Motivational Maps, you can increase staff performance, whilst also meeting their motivators, so they come into work energised and raring to go!

Motivational Maps are easy to apply. Completing a Map produces a personalised report for each individual. The report details their motivational profile, but also provides pragmatic and actionable steps they can take to increase their motivation. This data can then be combined to create Team Reports and Organisation Reports, giving individuals, teams, and organisations a shared language of motivation.
