ABSTRACT

The Motivational Team Map itself provides automated ideas in its output. Teams have a clear remit, by which we mean a mission, a purpose, something definite that must be achieved. Put another way, a coach or consultant could without having met any of the members of this team form a reasonably accurate impression of what is going on. But that said, in the creation of teams Spirit is one of the more ‘difficult team motivators’. The motivation is low – 56% – which practically means energy levels are low, whereas energy levels are usually higher in high performing teams. Thus, if an individual or team had both in their top three there would be an inner tension as one was faced with having to go for more autonomy, and so relinquish control, or take on more control (via responsibilities) and so limit further one’s autonomy, or freedom to act.
