What is the MQ Meter?
The MQ Meter (Motivational Intelligence Meter) is a research-based assessment that measures how effectively you manage your mindset, motivation and behaviour at work.
It evaluates five core areas that directly influence your ability to stay focused, adaptable and high-performing — especially under pressure.
Your results give you a clear snapshot of your current Motivational Intelligence and provide guidance on how to strengthen it through targeted development and training.
The five areas we assess
- Reflective Practices – How effectively you learn from experience and use reflection to grow and improve.
- Vision – Your ability to set clear goals, maintain direction and stay connected to purpose.
- Belief in Your Potential – Your confidence in your ability to achieve goals and overcome challenges.
- Responsibility – Your willingness to take ownership of your actions, decisions and results.
- Adaptability – How well you respond to change and maintain motivation when things get tough.
Together, these create your overall MQ score out of 100.
