'Motivation at work - BEMQ'

The ©Blue Edge Motivation Questionnaire (©BEM-Q) is one of very few psychometrics providing clarity and insight into what motivates and demotivates individuals at work.

When creating the ©BEM-Q model, over 75 years of research into motivation was reviewed by our psychometricians and psychologists. To create a tool that was meaningful, this research was brought up to date to create a model of motivation directly relevant to 21st century organisations.

©BEM-Q assesses respondents against the following key motivators to product a motivational profile for each employee:

Achievement
Affiliation
Caring
Development
Environment
Independence

Material
Recognition
Responsibility
Security
Variety

This report ensures that line managers and coaches are well placed to decide on what employees should focus on within their jobs in order to feel motivated, enthusiastic and full of energy at work. ©BEM-Q is used for a range of organisational applications, as follows:

Training/development programmes - to enhance self-awareness and to provide a solid understanding of motivation at work
During transition - when roles are changing, in order to ensure that 'fit' is maintained and to inform redeployment decisions
Coaching - as a start point for understanding an individual's motivators and demotivators within a work environment
Surfacing problems during early stages of employment - unrealised expectations, poor 'fit' of individual to job, etc
Appraisal/development - to heighten line managers' understanding of their direct reports' motivators, to assess 'fit', and to feed into personal development planning
Job enrichment schemes - incorporating employees' motivators as part of job design and benefits packages
Teambuilding - facilitating an understanding of each others' 'turn-on's' and 'turn-off's' at work.
