Why is this program unique?

The MOTOR Test is a more powerful tool for self-knowledge than existing methods that classify individuals by personality types, as it measures motives.

Motivation is more predictive of behaviour than personality. In fact, motivation is the cause of behaviour.

The MOTOR Test generates authentic self-knowledge, as it is free from the Barnum effect, which causes people to identify with descriptions of their personality type that are invariably presented in a positive light.

Furthermore, it paves the way for transformation through vertical development, enabling an understanding of the stage at which a leader, their team, and even their company currently reside, and facilitating the creation of an action plan with immediate and successful impact.

This is the only certified course that combines the strengths of MOTOR with VERTICAL LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT.
