Approach
Our vision and mission emphasise internal motivation as the foundation for individual satisfaction, well-being, and success.
At Spark Intent, we believe that when individuals thrive—finding satisfaction and success in their performance—the organisation wins too. Our approach ensures that everybody grows, and everybody benefits.
Self-determination theory (SDT) highlights three core psychological needs: autonomy, competence, and belonging. These principles guide how organisations and leaders can create environments that foster internal motivation, leading to lasting performance satisfaction and success.
However, SDT alone isn’t enough. Spark Intent recognises that individuals also need self-regulated motivation and resilience when external support falls short. That’s why we centre our work around Purpose, helping individuals discover meaning and autonomy as key drivers of resilience and sustained success.
For a deeper dive, visit our ‘Thought’ page for more insights, and explore our Performer Framework to see how SDT, Purpose, and Performance intersect to create success for everyone.
Our approach is based on self-determination theory, purpose, and performance mastery. We believe that when people thrive and find meaning in their work, organisations succeed too. Through internal motivation, purpose, and growth, we build environments where everyone benefits
The Performer framework
Company success relies on four key pillars: staff fulfilment, retention, innovation, and productivity.
To achieve this, employees need to experience lasting satisfaction through engagement and a strong sense of belonging.
Our mission is to create environments that foster internal motivation, driving long-term success. We do this through three core programmes:
-
One Team: Collaborating with senior management, we drive strategic change, crafting company-wide initiatives that cultivate opportunities for internal motivation.
-
Catalyst Coaching: Our leadership development programme offers mindset strategies inspired by elite Head Coaches, empowering leaders to unlock their team’s potential.
-
Performer’s Purpose: Focusing on individual growth, this programme leverages purpose and self-regulation to enhance satisfying performance, preparation, and personal development.
Methods
Our approach is inspired by autonomy-supportive coaching, a respect for individual needs and internalisation of motivation.
