Have you ever wondered why some tasks energize you while others drain your energy? Or why traditional career advice about "playing to your strengths" often feels disconnected from your actual experience? The answer lies in understanding the psychology behind your authentic professional strengths.
🎯 Beyond generic strength lists
Generic strength lists miss something crucial. Our groundbreaking 20-year research revealed it's not just about what you're good at - it's about understanding the specific attitudes and motivations that drive success.
⚡ Beyond traditional assessments
While most assessments focus only on personality types, Marlee measures 48 distinct motivational patterns that influence how you naturally:
- Make decisions and solve problems
- Communicate and collaborate
- Process information and take action
- Lead and influence others
- Handle structure and change
This scientific approach helps you:
- Understand your authentic work motivations vs. learned behaviors
- Discover which environments naturally energize you
- Identify potential blind spots before they impact your success
- Create strategies that leverage your natural strengths
By understanding your unique motivational fingerprint through Marlee's My Results board, you can align your work with environments where you'll naturally thrive rather than strain to fit predetermined molds.
💫 Using your ‘My Results’ board to uncover your true strengths
Once you've answered questions on what motivates you, your My Results board becomes a powerful tool for strength discovery. Here's how to use it effectively:
- Notice the patterns in your top motivations. Are you energized by creating structure, generating ideas, or connecting with others? These patterns reveal your natural strengths.

- Pay attention to your lowest-scoring areas. Rather than weaknesses, think of these as areas where you're less naturally inclined to spend energy. Uncover what drains you so you can build your ideal working environment.

- Look for patterns where your energy spikes and results shine. Those intersection points - where your natural motivations meet your greatest achievements - reveal your authentic professional strengths. Take note of when you feel most "in flow" and what specific elements of your role spark that natural momentum.
