Mission Statement

Our mission is to identify and describe the unique and powerful contribution lying largely untapped in each individual and to assist our clients to harness both the heart and the mind for job fit, collective performance, employee satisfaction and organizational achievement. No leadership occurs apart from Motivated Abilities® and our SIMA® process is the only door to an individual’s sweet spot passion.

Our Member Organizations believe:

That no inventory, no financial reserve, no sophisticated information system, no plant or process or product, no reputation, no wealth of any kind that an organization can muster is equal to the treasure of its human resources.

That beyond the credentials, energy, experience, and loyalty that people may bring to the job lies a great inner wellspring of motivation that ultimately makes all the difference in how well they do on the job.

That unseen by the piles of application forms, personnel files, measurement systems, and performance evaluations—and often unseen by individuals themselves—is a vast resource of capability that, for the most part, is barely tapped.

That nothing of consequence happens at any level in an organization unless it is propelled by the strengths resident in one or more of the people involved.

That the success of a business is directly attributable to certain motivated abilities possessed and exercised by key people. Those abilities emerge from the nature of the person.

That every person is unique—truly one of a kind.

That through SIMA®, SIMA International, Inc. can provide unique insight into people. That insight enables a company to assess job fit and predict how a person is likely to accomplish their responsibilities—or, as often as not, reshape their responsibilities into something they can live with. In the ideal, an organization will seek to maximize people’s strengths and minimize the effects of what they lack.

That companies will dramatically improve performance if they place people in key roles who are inherently enthusiastic about the work they are doing.

That Peter Drucker was correct when he said, “Effective management is the productive use of strengths.”

That excellence is open to anyone who finds the place and level of work that suits what they naturally bring to the task by virtue of their giftedness.

That productivity is the end product of excellence.
