High-performance organizations develop strong leaders, tenacious teams, and resilient employees
Your organization is at its best when your leaders, teams, and employees are at their best — collectively, efficiently pursuing meaningful objectives that advance your boldest business goals.
Optimize your workforce and Win
Organizational success relies on your most critical resource — your talent. Companies that engage, motivate, and empower their employees have a distinct competitive advantage, and those that do so while creating a burnout-resistant culture create happier, healthier workplaces and build unstoppable momentum.
Motivation Code helps you unleash the power of your people and make coming to work a rewarding and fulfilling experience.
When you add Motivation Code to your existing talent acquisition, development, and retention toolboxes, your organization will benefit from:
- More confident, effective leadership
- Enhanced critical thinking and problem-solving
- Increased productivity and performance
- Smarter experimentation and innovation
- Improved communication and collaboration
- Greater self-awareness and empathy
- Stronger connections and team relationships
- Increased personal and professional motivation
- Healthy competition that raises the bar
- Accelerated learning and upskilling
Improve Talent Acquisition
Recruit the right talent for open positions
Recruiting and hiring based on candidates’ strengths and weaknesses is risky. It ignores the fact that employees can use their skills and strengths in their jobs and still feel unhappy and unfulfilled.
Selecting hires based on their resumes is an outdated practice. Anyone can craft a resume that makes even the most mediocre accomplishments look like amazing wins. Plus, resumes represent what candidates have done, not what they are capable of doing.
Adding the MCode assessment and our Job Fit Report to your hiring process changes the game
Discovering a potential hire’s MCode helps you better understand who they are, how they work, what drives them, and what they need to succeed. A Job Fit Report, using the MCode results of the hiring manager and potential candidates, allows you to identify job fit and manager fit so you can interview smarter and make the right hires.
With Motivation Code, organizations can:
Identify motivational gaps in their teams and prioritize specific areas to fill.
Define the motivations for open positions and write more compelling job descriptions.
Understand the unique value each candidate can contribute to the organization.
Host more meaningful and strategic interviews and hiring conversations.
Determine job fit more quickly and match ideal candidates to the right roles.
Improve Talent Development
Nurture high performers and build high-performing teams
Your people are your largest investment and with the right personal growth and professional development opportunities, they can also be the competitive advantage that skyrockets your organization’s success.
But that doesn’t happen by chance, and you can’t nurture consistent high performance in your most valuable employees if you don’t know what drives them to perform at that level.
To develop a high-performance culture, organizations must equip and empower their leaders to become better leaders and give them the tools they need to get the best from every member of their team — tools like the MCode assessment, team workshops, and Pulse! motivation monitoring.
Motivation Code gives organizations the ability to:
See what employees find energizing or draining, interesting or boring, and fulfilling or frustrating — and use that insight to drive peak performance.
Help leaders learn to individualize their management and shape assignments to perfectly fit employees and their preferred work styles.
Identify high potentials and hidden assets — employees who show promise but haven’t had an opportunity to demonstrate their full potential.
Build high-performing teams you can depend on to move fast, communicate well, collaborate effectively, and make the impossible possible.
Create personalized talent development plans that motivate employees to persevere and relentlessly pursue their goals.
Improve Talent Retention
Build fierce loyalty and retain your best people
Insights from the MCode assessment, on their own and used in team workshops and tools like Pulse!, provide organizations the tools their leaders and teams need to understand themselves and each other.
When companies understand employees on an individual level and know what makes them tick — what motivates them to work hard, run fast, and chase even the most ambitious goals — everyone wins.
Employees feel seen, understood, supported, and valued. They know their work matters, they consistently perform at their best, and they contribute specific value to their team and the broader organization. They are productive, happy, challenged just enough to remain interested and engaged, connected to their teams, satisfied in their roles, and fulfilled by their work. When this happens, organizations see increased productivity and accelerated results.
Individual and team MCode insights help organizations:
Establish a high-performance culture and unleash the full potential of every employee.
Create the ideal work environments for high performers and high potentials to ensure they thrive.
Forge such fierce loyalty that their best people wouldn’t entertain a job offer or dream of leaving.
Develop strong, confident, inspiring leaders who drive extraordinary outcomes.
Build strong, connected teams that support each other and accelerate efficiency.
MCode stories
Make your people your Competitive Advantage with Motivation Code
The MCode assessment isn’t your standard behavioral assessment. It is a powerful framework for understanding how your employees are wired for success. It reveals their innate motivations — the why behind their thoughts, feelings, decisions, and actions — and how they are best suited to contribute maximum value.
And here’s the thing…
Motivation Code isn’t new. Our revolutionary, story-based assessment was first developed more than 60 years ago.
It’s powered by science, behavioral research, and decades of study on motivation and high performance — and for many years, it was only facilitated through personal 1:1 interviews. Recruiters, headhunters, executive coaches, and leadership consultants used the assessment to help leaders step into their full potential and organizations recruit, develop, and retain extraordinary talent.
But let’s face it…
1:1 interviews are in no way scalable and you deserve access to this “scary accurate” assessment too! So we added technology to make Motivation Code available to organizations and teams of all sizes, worldwide.
And we’re still innovating today with a suite of motivation-driven work workplace tools for hiring, employee engagement, team leadership and cohesion, talent development, and employee retention.
Drive transformational change through the lens of Motivation in three steps
When your organization introduces Motivation Code through an MCode Team Workshop experience, every individual who discovers their MCode is empowered to show up at their best and do their best work, and teams go farther and achieve more than ever before!
Here’s how the assessment and team workshop experience works in three steps:
Step One
Every member of your team takes the MCode assessment (at a discount) to discover their MCodes and gain insight into who they are, what drives them, how they contribute value, and what they need to succeed.
Step Two
Results are articulated in a custom Team Motivational Map depicting your team’s concentrations and gaps, and the training workshop content is tailored to your team’s unique motivational makeup.
Step Three
A Certified MCode Executive Coach leads you and your team through interactive workshops that guide you and your team through understanding and applying MCode insights as a cohesive team.
Pulse! provides tools to build strong teams, boost engagement, and identify risk early
Motivation isn’t static. It shifts as work responsibilities shift, projects change, and career goals develop. That’s why we created Pulse! — employee engagement software that helps organizations boost engagement, keep employees performing at their best, and retain top talent.
Employees complete a simple monthly motivation check-in and leaders receive real-time individual and team engagement data like who is thriving, struggling, or feeling unmotivated or stagnant.
Leaders gain tools to tailor their communication to each team member, assign projects based on who will be most energized by the work, and frame assignments so they are engaging and exciting.
Organizations track motivational trends and employee engagement over time, to identify employees and projects at risk of burnout or disengagement before it becomes a problem and people quit.
