Glocalities

Think global, act local

The world is constantly changing. Technologies that grow exponentially and new media mean a continuously faster distribution of knowledge and products.

The younger generations take over the mantle from older generations. The challenges for companies and governments are greater than ever before.


It is crucial for organizations to have the best understanding possible of future developments. A necessary condition for success is knowledge of fundamental trends and how these can differ from each other locally and relate to each other worldwide. With unique knowledge of what drives people and gets them moving, Motivaction International offers your organization a fact-based navigation system for the future.

Values as foundation

The Glocalities survey contains a rich diversity of questions that provide insights into values, cultural differences, behaviour and preferences of daily life. Values statements are incorporated in order to distinguish Glocalities segments and understand cultural differences, influencing styles, character traits and trends.


Lifestyles and social orientations

For social analyses voting behaviour, political issues and priorities and confidence in institutions are included. Hobbies, favourite personalities, music preferences, ownership of products and participation in various provide insights into the lifestyles and preferences of the people surveyed.


Consumer behaviour and global brands

Detailed consumer behaviour is available in various sectors with for instance questions about:

 

  • The use of financial products and services at banks
  • The consumption of beer brands
  • The area of health and the use of body care products and brands
  • Attitudes and preferences in the areas of sustainability and social responsibility of companies


The use of products from 40 global brands (including Apple, Nike, Visa, Dove, Coca-Cola) and the corresponding Net Promotor Score (NPS) are determined so that the promoters, passives and detractors of these brands can be distinguished in the study.


Media behaviour

For media profiling questions are used about:

 

  • Social media usage
  • Website visits
  • Reading newspapers, listening to radio stations and watching television broadcasts

 

Socio-demographic characteristics

 

  • Social background data becomes available through questions about age, education, gender, religion, work situation, income, sector and family situation


Based on all this high end information we distinguish five global segments. The size of each segment differs per country and region.
