Why Leaders Use the Motivators Assessment
Whether you’re a pastor, team leader, nonprofit executive, or entrepreneur, the Motivators Assessment gives you deep insight into how you’re wired for impact.
It’s especially powerful when used for:
-
Vocational clarity
-
Hiring and alignment
-
Faith-based leadership coaching
-
Understanding potential burnout or misalignment
You wake up every morning with something pulling you forward—something deeper than habit.
That something is your motivation.
Motivators are the internal drivers that energize you, spark your curiosity, and shape the unique way you approach life and leadership.
And yet, most people never stop to name them.
The Motivators Assessment changes that.
What is the Motivators Assessment?
Motivators are what get you out of bed in the morning. They are internal forces—formed by life experiences, shaped by your family of origin, and refined through meaningful relationships and moments of transformation.
In the language of wiring, they’re your Firmware—deep enough to be lasting, but changeable through time, effort, or significant events.
They’re the why behind your how. And they’re central to unlocking your unique potential.
Why Motivators Matter
You can have the same DISC behavioral style as someone else, but completely different motivators. That’s why two leaders who look the same on paper can lead, decide, and communicate so differently.
Motivators help you understand:
-
Where your energy comes from
-
What truly matters to you
-
Why certain environments feel like a fit (or don’t)
-
How you’ll show up when things get hard
This is a must-have layer in your self-awareness toolkit.

Great teams are made up of people with diverse "wiring" that can leverage their own strengths and also the strengths of those around them. These tools are invaluable in building great teams and I wouldn't make a hiring decision without them!
