KNOW WHAT DRIVES YOU. KNOW WHAT DRIVES YOUR TEAM.
DON’T LEAVE IT TO CHANCE. BE IN CONTROL OF YOUR SUCCESS.

THE PROBLEM

In sports, we experience too much random decision-making, and reactive behavior when leading ourselves and others to stable and sustained top performance. Talented athletes – and sometimes entire teams – lose motivation, performance capability, and passion. There is a lack of well-founded and practical knowledge about motivational drive.

It is time to lead people in an individualized manner.

THE SOLUTION

Our focus is on the individual within the team. For athletes, this means achieving self-efficacy. For coaches, it means leading in an individualized manner. A deep and nuanced understanding of each individual’s motivational drive concerning their environment is necessary. It’s precisely motivation-based personal development and leadership that delivers the controllable performance we strive for.

Be the conductor of your motivation. Performance doesn’t have to happen by chance.

Be aware of your motivational drivers. They pave the way to your success!

No matter what Amber is working on, it’s one thing that she focuses on: the individual human being.

There, with her unique blend of professional expertise, passion, and approachability, she managed large and successful campaigns. A guiding principle for her was always the focused and individualized support of the athletes.

How do you create a profile on my motivational drivers? How does it work?

The profile we generate is based on motive-oriented personality research. It measures the nature of your motivational drive and can very precisely delineate and describe what defines you by presenting 15 (or optionally 16) motives. It explains how your reflections in feeling, thinking, and acting are composed.
We send you a test link by email, and you complete the questionnaire online at your convenience. It takes about 25–30 minutes. A few days later, you will receive an evaluation of your motivational structure, followed by an individual, and detailed analysis of your profile, which takes several hours. In this session you will get to dive deep into insights regarding your targeted themes, enabling you to gain many valuable insights.
You can choose the setting: via ZOOM or in a personal face-to-face 1:1 meeting. After the evaluation, you will receive a series of reports of your profile (in PDF and as a mobile version).

What is your profiling method based on?

Under the overall direction of Professor Dr. Samuel Greiff, Professor of Educational Measurement, a completely new testing procedure was developed starting in 2016. The department’s references include, for example, the validation, review, and development of testing procedures used in the PISA study commissioned by the OECD. Renowned specialists in the field of test quality and the development of innovative measurement instruments in personality profiling (including Prof. Dr. Christoph Kemper, who led the research team) applied state-of-the-art methods for test development. The test itself was scientifically validated and standardized from a single and focused process. It achieved excellent values in psychometric quality criteria, thereby attesting to the test’s very high scientific quality.

This test offers significant advantages for users: highly precise motive recognition of your motivational drivers and very high measurement accuracy provide a better understanding and a high degree of clarity in the representation of the complexity of individual personality. The current standardization, valid for many years now, ensures a high significance of personal test scores compared to the general population. The development, validation, and documentation of the test were guided by the recommendations of DIN 33430 and the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing of the American Educational Research Association [AERA], the American Psychological Association, and the National Council on Measurement in Education.
