WHY Index®

WHY Index® is the ultimate tool for working with motivation, creating a foundation for stronger personal development and increased work performance.

This comprehensive motivational assessment explores the depth of individual motivators and provides a detailed understanding of an individual’s personal values and attitudes.

WHY Index® is a powerful assessment of the intrinsic motivations that influence behaviour, designed to provide a detailed understanding of an individual’s personal values and attitudes. WHY Index® describes different motivators and WHY a person acts in a certain way, based on personal values and attitudes. The uniqueness of WHY Index® is that it measures and describes both HIGH and LOW values in 8 different motivational factors and shows what a person tends to seek and what gives energy, but also what the person prefers to avoid or what causes stress and conflict, offering a comprehensive view of their motivational landscape.

WHY Index® is based on research by recognised experts such as Frederick Herzberg, Daniel Pink, and Victor Vroom’s well-founded theories with practical insights.
