	High motivation indicates that this person seeks organizational management responsibility and role. Emphasis is on firm, take charge management to get things done through utilizing the talents of others. Skills are primary. A high motivation indicates that this person is not interested in the activity in order to socialize, empathize, sympathize, or manage on a psychological, personality, emotional, or ego basis. It is management with balance between the big picture and pieces of the picture. This management is fairly administered, as long as performance, quality, and results are the measuring criteria.
	Moderate motivation indicates that this person accepts and exercises both responsibility and role for organizational management. Emphasis is on management of people, but that is directly tied to performance of existing, available skills. Performance and results are the main emphasis.
