Organizational development

Management Drives distinguishes itself by its applications at organizational level. Drives determine how people act. Drives show which parts of the organizational development naturally receive more or less attention. Each color stands for a step in the development of your organization. All the steps in the organizational development are important. The phase in which an organization finds itself and the context determine where more or less attention should be given.


However, the individual and team profiles determine where the natural attention is focused. This insight means that conscious attention can be devoted to each step in the organizational development, based on the interests of the organization.

Step 1, Purple Yellow: Mission and vision relates to who we are and where we are going. Identity, core values and being proud are expressly linked to the purple drive. Vision, long-term developments, the environment and the broader perspective expressly belong to yellow.

Step 2, Orange Red: Strategy and focus, translates mission and vision into concrete strategy and goals to be achieved. We must determine the risks and what we will and will not do. Making choices, focusing.

Step 3, Blue Green: Organize and communicate, concerns determining the working method in which we will achieve the formulated goals, what agreements will be made for this and how we ensure that people are and remain connected.

Important elements in step 3 are also embedding the direction, strategy and agreements. This is about creating bonds between the individual, team and the organization.


Team profile

Organizations exist because people work together. The question is just how people work together optimally. How do you ensure that people are optimally motivated, enhance each other and speak each other’s language? Insight into each other’s individual profile is a first step. A team profile gives insight into the drives of a team.


A team profile is a sum of several individual profiles. This identifies the strengths and pitfalls of this team, what motivates and demotivates this team. With this insight it is possible to improve the team’s performance and boost the energy in a team.


Group logic indicates what motivates this team, what the strengths and pitfalls are.

Diversity shows how different the members of the team are.

All plus is what gives the team energy and how it can be motivated.

All minus is what takes energy from the team.
