Orchestrator: Organize. Oversee. Establish.

Primary Goal

To bring definition, direction, and oversight to people, processes, and efforts. To lead and be key in developing strategies and implementing them.

Understand The Orchestrator

Orchestrators bring separate or disconnected things together, establishing the practical steps others failed to take and directing people to accomplish tasks in organized and orderly ways. They leave a legacy that impacts future generations and help to provide assurance or hope in the face of uncertainty.

  • The ideal work environment for an Orchestrator allows them to organize and oversee people and processes. They want to lay foundations and establish practical strategies for how things are done within the organization and thrive when their expertise is needed and valued.
  • Orchestrators do not thrive in work environments where they are confined to working on and improving what already exists. They will experience anxiety if the organization allows projects to go unfinished or unresolved and will not be motivated within cultures where roles are ambiguous and there is no room for leadership opportunities.
  • With a desire to have direct involvement in every stage of a project, Orchestrators must resist over extending their role and remain open to allowing others to make their own way, even if it results in failure. They must also be aware of their own stress level and how much they choose to take on as their personal responsibility.
  • If you are on a team with an Orchestrator they will be decisive and proactive, and show up as a natural-born leader. They are planners with a system for everything, and are truly the glue that holds an organization together.

“I love that MCode helps me see positive dynamics and challenging dynamics for working with people whose top motivations are different than my own. My husband and I are both extremely driven individuals and work together in our small business, and we’ve had some challenges finding flow in how we best work together. MCode has helped us find clarity on our core motivations and how to better understand each other when we are working on projects together. Game changer!

As an Orchestrator, I love to take charge and lead. Obviously, I want to do that well. I now understand how essential it is for everyone on the team to have their core motivations met too. This assessment will help us grow our most valuable investment in our business — our people. Thank you MCode!”

“Talk about having my mind blown. The MCode report was much more than I could’ve expected. It turns out that I’m an Orchestrator, and even though I couldn’t see it right away, the more I looked at myself from a different perspective the more it made sense.

I realize that I thrive in situations where I’m able to bring together the right group of people to tackle a challenge. Looking at every situation from an Orchestrator point of view has increased our productivity and has made my team a more cohesive unit.”
