Abstract

This report examines the reliability and validity of the Instinctive Drivesâ„¢ system (also known as the I.D. Systemâ„¢), as developed by Link-Up! International Pty Ltd. The system is said to gauge the innate qualities of individual team members by assessing four key drives; namely, the Instinctive Drive to Verifyâ„¢, Instinctive Drive to Authenticateâ„¢, the Instinctive Drive to Completeâ„¢ and the Instinctive Drive to Improviseâ„¢. Through an improved understanding of the drives of individual team members, it is argued that individual and team performance can be enhanced quickly by employing specific strategies for communication and management. As such, the present report explores this claim. More specifically, the study statistically validates the I.D.â„¢ questionnaire; it validates a refined version of the questionnaire; it explores the relationship between the refined version and personality factors, leadership style and general health factors; and it explores the inherent value of the I.D. Systemâ„¢, including the questionnaire outcomes (or I.D.â„¢ profile) and associated targeted strategies for improvement.
