Using MAPP ™ for Career and Personal Development

MAPP ™ (Motivational Appraisal of Personal Potential) supports growth of individuals as well as organizations.


For Individuals:
MAPP ™ is a tool used to support growth in a personal and / or professional environment by clearly identifying an individual's unique potential. Motivational Appraisal of Personal Potential helps to identify personal motivations in several categories, including temperament, aptitude and learning style. The results can guide individuals on a career or personal path, or validate one they are already on.

The assessment identifies characteristics that help to indicate a strong motivation to do, or avoid doing, certain things. For example, an individual may be capable of something, but if she / he hates it, and if it were a significant part of her / his daily responsibilities, it might undermine strengths and become a liability. By charting personal motivations, we can provide an understanding of the intricacies that keep individuals happy, thriving and effective in their life and work.

MAPP ™ is a simple-to-administer appraisal system that organizes an individual's motivations into objective, quantified and intuitive formats. It requires only 20 to 25 minutes to complete over the Internet. The assessment consists of 71 sets of triads from which the individual selects options most and least preferred. Results are available in a variety of forms, including a personalized narrative report. Customized charts are included which compare the individual's personal traits with those required for specific jobs / vocations.
