The Motives Met
Human Needs Assessment™
The Groundbreaking Tool to Unlock Thriving at Work
After years of research (and we have done a lot of it!), our team discovered the 28 psychological, emotional, and social human needs – or motives – that drive us to be well and perform well at work. The motives framework is the foundation for building happy, healthy, high-performing teams and a culture where people collectively thrive.

Well-Being is Personal,
Not Universal
These human motives don’t matter equally to each employee or team. Each of us has our own hierarchy of needs, a personal blend out of the 28 motives of must-haves, nice-to-haves, and don’t-care-about-it’s that impact our health and happiness.
Our innovative research led to our one-of-a-kind assessment to uncover the motives that matter most to each person, shifting from “one-size-fits-none” leadership to a human-centered approach. It empowers people to meet motives for themselves, the people they work with, and those they lead.

It’s more than a tool; it’s a commitment to your people. You show employees you care about their
well-being (and don’t just say you do!). With this powerful resource, you identify values, uncover blindspots and weaknesses, celebrate strengths, and capitalize on opportunities.
Elevate Well-Being, Connection, & Retention
The Human Needs Assessment™ opens the door to connect and communicate about what matters most to people at work. These meaningful motive conversations boost emotional intelligence and build a culture where everyone feels seen, valued, and undeniably human. plus, it’s fun! Think of it as the ultimate team bonding experience without the awkward trust falls.
When employees don’t feel their motives are met, they disengage. They’re not just thinking about leaving—they’re already halfway out the door. In fact, our research shows they’re twice as likely to leave. Think of it as your “stay interview” strategy—helping you address concerns before they become exit interviews.
“It was eye-opening to see what motivates and drives your employees and how that collectively looks for the entire team. Where we see connection or alignment and where we see diversity and difference. It was important to give us something to consider as we think about the way we operate as a team, ensuring that we create a space where people feel their motives can be met. Having the space to truly connect and discuss obstacles was so valuable.”
