Moving Motivators

Card game method to explore the motivation of employees and teams in the change process.

Are you and your company also in the middle of a digital transformation process? Perhaps your team is finding it difficult to follow the path of change as planned as a matter of course? If they find themselves at this point, it can make perfect sense to use the Moving Motivators method to address the motivations of their employees.

The game-based approach with Moving Motivators can help them explore and better understand the motivators of their team members. This enables them to motivate and manage their employees in a more individualized and targeted manner. The change process in their organization can gain more momentum and their employees proactively support the change through intrinsic involvement.

The Moving Motivators were created by Jurgen Appelo (coach, speaker and author of several books), based on the motives from the Reiss Profile Motive Analysis (according to Prof. Dr. Steven Reiss) and the CHAMPFROGS model for intrinsic motivation.
