Benchmarking

Our Benchmarking Tool shows how you stack up against industry top performers and even allows you to compare against team members. Use it as a key performance indicator.

The benefits of benchmarking:

This valuable tool benchmarks your unique work motivations against our proven success factor models from 20+ years of research.

This helps you quickly pinpoint your greatest opportunities for growth as a leader, team and company.

Benchmarking provides an easy and visible analysis of leader and team success 'gaps' so you know exactly which areas are adding risk to your business and need to be addressed.

You can even track your team's progress over time, meaning you can visually gauge the ROI of coaching programs and talent development efforts.

It's also the perfect software tool to help you identify performance gaps in individual teams. Then find ideal candidates to complement those blind spots and quickly improve team performance.

How It Works

Optimal performance: the Green Zone motivations

In the Benchmark Report, you’ll find your Green Zone motivations. These are the attitudes that correlate with venture success when compared to Entrepreneurs and Business Builders we studied.

Marlee was an insightful and precise resource for me in mapping the impact of my style between Australian and US business cultures. A highly useful resources for business owners and thought leaders at any stage of business growth.

Untapped potential: Orange Zone motivations

The Orange Zone is where your biggest opportunities lie. It’s where you have slightly higher or lower levels of motivation when compared to our research samples.

Through self-awareness, focus and working with a coach, you can change these motivation levels to better align with venture success.

I have used Marlee in the past to assess entrepreneurial talent in candidates, team members, and even myself. Marlee provides a powerful framework and tool to analyze and compare against peers."

Risk factors: Red Zone motivations

Far from weaknesses, blind spots are areas that you don't find particularly interesting or motivating. But don't worry—these might be genius attitudes in other domains!

The Red Zone reveals your risk factors in business and the ideal motivations for you to seek in co-founders, teammates, or board members.

We've even got AI and human coaches on deck to help you strategically increase or decrease Red Zone motivations.

I have used Marlee with a number of our start-ups to support investment due diligence; recruitment of co-founders; dealing with team dynamics and co-founder conflict. It is an amazing tool, which has an incredible depth of detail and allows for greater understanding and application.
