Attitude, motivation, performance & well-being

The NEURO-M Predictive Employee Engagement Assessment uniquely measures & predicts dimensions of employee engagement from a neurobiological-motivational perspective.

Go beyond moods to reveal intrinsic employee engagement, motivation & well-being

neurobiology is partially genetic

Genetics & neurobiology

Subconscious motivations

We are genetically programmed toward goals and actions vital for survival of self and species. In the workplace, this translates to a subconscious need for safety, connection, empowerment, task reward, and identity. These core needs shape emotions and attitudes that drive intuition, behaviours, and action choices.

Employee engagement as a response

Experiences & environments matter

The neurobiological processes of motivation interact with experiential learning to shape powerful instinctive responses to the threats and opportunities of an environment and context. Employee engagement is a response, not a strictly conscious choice. In recognising this, you gain the tools to shape an engaged, positive workplace.

An approach response to stress

Approach & avoidance motivation

Gain or loss? Engagement or fear?

There are two basic motivational responses: “Approach” and “Avoidance”. The former is aimed towards satisfying a basic need, while the latter is a response to the threat of loss. Recognise this, and you gain the ability to help your team, (and yourself), cultivate a cooperative, proactive, engaged workplace.

Engaged employees are smarter

Engaged employees are smarter employees. They do not magically create more brain cells of course, rather they simply are far more capable of working to their full intellectual capacity. By working to convert avoidance responses to approach-dominant responses throughout your workplace, you can all quite literally work smarter, not harder.

Impacts of employee engagement

Effort, capability & behaviour

Unsurprisingly, employees who associate their workplace with meeting their motivational needs are far more likely to cooperate, take responsibility, and generally perform to their best, while those who view their workplace as a “threat” will act in the opposite. The far-reaching impacts of employee engagement cannot be overstated.
