What is a Drive Response Theory?
Drive Response Theory delivers many new findings for personal growth and better relationships by knowing yourself and understanding others. Your relationship with your family, friends and your social interactions in general play an important part in your well-being. Benefits of good relationship are: increased happiness, better health, a longer life. Just as language is essential for good communication, so is being aware of people’s different personality traits essential for good relationships. Being social and connecting with others is as fundamental a human need as food, shelter, and water. For example, social-emotional pain, such as the loss of a relationship, originates from the same part of the brain as physical pain.

DR theory helps you to create a better relationship with everyone you meet and to become conscious of the positive as well as negative traits of your behaviour. Most importantly, it can help you to avoid arguments and keep your communications smooth and pleasant.

The Drive Response Theory helps you to understand the root causes of typical patterns that we share in common, with the help of the nine personal character type descriptions provided by the well known Enneagram theory. If you can identify your dominant type, then you can be aware of who you are, how you behave with others, how you communicate, how you react in various situations. This awareness further helps in being aware of your faults, and improving or eliminating them, thus taking control of yourself and your life.

Create connections, make friends and strengthen your relationships.
Discover your qualities and improve your significance and success.
Improve communication skills in business as well as personal lives.
