The Opportunity

We are in the midst of a transformational shift in our work, workplace, and workforce. Progressive companies and workers are abandoning the 'one size fits all' approach and gravitating towards personalized experiences tailored to the individual.

An opportunity has emerged to address two impactful and overlapping themes: 


Individuals: I'm re-evaluating what motivates me at work. How can I prioritize what's most important to me? 


Companies: We want to improve the employee experience, but we don't know where to start. How can we get reliable data on what’s most important to our workforce?

The Motivator Assessment Profile (MAP) identifies your top motivators at work, and provides companies with valuable insights about what’s most important to their current and potential workforce
