epp​®-analysis
The Emotional Performance Profile (epp®) provides insights into motives, motivations and personality traits
Motives anchor our action plan
Knowing your own motives, motivations and personality traits contributes significantly to developing socio-communicative competence. This makes it easier to lead oneself and others and to have successful interactions.
Knowing oneself stimulates reflection on leadership. epp® provides a non-evaluative analysis to:
-
optimize one's own leadership behavior,
-
maintain a sense of well-being and
-
enable long-term enjoyment of performance.
​
People are exceptionally good at what they enjoy, and the key to this are motives. Motives are the representatives of our emotional needs and want to be lived. If they are not satisfied over a long period of time, it leads to unpleasant tension, which affects satisfaction and performance.
​
Motives are also fixed characteristics of our personality. Personality traits influence behavior, but only motives lead to action.
Content & Evaluation
The epp® analysis consists of three parts with a total of 92 questions on:
-
10 performance-promoting motives,
-
8 performance-enhancing motives and
-
6 personality traits,
which are answered online by the mentee prior to the workshop. The evaluation is available immediately afterwards and is discussed at the beginning of the workshop between the mentor - as a certified epp® expert - and the mentees.
For groups, there is the option of team evaluation, which - depending on the preference of the participants - can be anonymous or named. Here, the collaboration and agility of teams can also be analyzed via two additional indexes.
The epp® analysis enables a targeted focus of the impulse workshop on the behavioral changes to be aimed for when the mentees' motives and personality traits are correlated with the mentor's experiences and recommendations.
