The Kolbe A Index is a 36-question test designed to measure the conative faculty of the mind -- the actions you take that result from your natural instincts. This measurement, called your MO, gives you greater understanding of your own human nature and allows you to begin the process of maximizing your potential both personally and professionally. The Kolbe A Index validates an individual's natural talents, the instinctive method of operation that enables you to be productive. Research on the Kolbe A indicates no significant differences in outcome by age, race, gender or physical handicap.
