“We just completed a rather large leadership rollout of The Culture Works program "What Motivates Me." The Motivators Assessment truly gives us the opportunity to "sculpt" each person's work so it aligns with their passions and strengths. This will help us retain talent and have happier, more satisfied employees. And that makes for a better workplace, and a better company. ”

Todd BillingsleyDirector, Leadership Training & Development, Boehringer Ingelheim
