WORK PREFERENCE INTELLIGENCE

We do better work when we play to our preferences.

Sariio reveals how people prefer to work. For managers, recruiters, coaches and consultants, that means a clearer view of how each person thinks, decides and works at their best - and conversations grounded in each person's preferences, not assumptions.

Built on methods proven across 40+ organisations and 12,000+ people.

The world has an engagement problem.
Every organisation feels it.

80% of the global workforce is not engaged or is actively disengaged (Gallup, 2026). That translates directly into attrition, inconsistent performance, and avoidable cost. The research is equally clear about the solution: 70% of team engagement is determined by the quality of the relationship between a person and their manager. Sariio is built around that finding.

No time to read a report?
Ask Sariio AI.

The people who most need to understand how a colleague works are exactly the people with no time to read an assessment report. A manager between meetings. A recruiter with six candidates to see today. A consultant walking into a room in ten minutes. Insight that arrives as homework never gets used.

So a myMAP can be asked questions, in the moment. What kind of work brings out my best? Why do long projects stall halfway? How should I work with Sarah? What should I watch for in the meeting that starts in ten minutes? The answer comes back grounded in that profile's actual survey responses, and it ends with a next step. The depth is there when you want it. The answer is there when you need it.

What kind of work brings out Jordan's best?

Two pairs stand out. Jordan prefers Concern for People, so work with visible human impact - a customer helped, a colleague brought along - gives them energy that solo output never quite matches.

Jordan also sits toward Pragmatist. They move fastest when good enough to ship is a legitimate standard, so clear outcomes with room to get moving suit them far better than polishing in isolation.

Every organisation has great teams. Few can say why.

People do better work when they play to their preferences, and your greatest teams are the proof. Yet almost no organisation can describe what actually drives that success, because the drivers have never been sampled. Sariio samples them. Three decades of research, from Harvard onward, links culture to performance, and Gallup counts the cost of getting it wrong every year in disengagement, attrition and hiring that never settles. Sariio maps the motivations and preferences of your people from the individual upward, so the teams that already deliver become your benchmark, and every hiring decision rests on evidence rather than instinct.

Self

Each person sees the preferences that shape how they work at their best. Engagement starts with self-awareness, and retention starts with engagement.

Interpersonal

Any two people can see where their preferences align and where they differ, so onboarding, coaching and everyday management start from understanding rather than guesswork.

Team

This is where hiring gets sharper. See the preference shape of the teams that consistently deliver, benchmark it, and assess candidates against the evidence of what already succeeds in your organisation, with interview questions focused on what the data says matters.

Organisation

Leadership sees the culture the organisation actually has: where its collective centre of gravity sits, where it divides into camps, and what it may find harder to see about itself. Recruitment strategy and culture stop being separate conversations.

Cultures that adapt outperform cultures that harden, and adaptation begins with a current picture. Because preferences shift with context and circumstance, your people can re-survey as their situations change, so your benchmarks describe the organisation as it performs now, and every new hire is measured against today's evidence rather than last year's.

"It will change the way that we speak with people and deal with them. It is eye-opening to see what motivates us and what our preferences are."

talentMAP

A consolidated MAP of everyone in a team - regardless of role. It shows the collective preference landscape: where the team clusters, where it has gaps, and how individuals sit within it. Use circles to extend the same view to project groups, training cohorts, and any group beyond fixed reporting lines.

  • Prepare for every 1-to-1 with evidence, not assumptions
  • See where the team agrees and where it splits
  • Extend to any group with circles
Organisation

cultureMAP

Your whole organisation on one map: where its collective centre of gravity sits on each of six dimensions, where opinion divides into camps, and what the culture may find harder to see about itself.
