Everyone is created with unique combinations of strengths & instincts. Thanks to the conative area of study, we can now better understand and tap into using our natural instincts to maximize our special skills and talents.
E3 Discovery helps parents use conative assessments, designed by Kathy Kolbe, to help better understand their child’s instincts and natural, innate strengths. Once your child’s results are generated, you can review them in detail with a personal E3 Discovery consultant. You will also receive access to the E3 Wisdom Code™.
Knowing your child’s MO (modus operandi or instincts) can help you empower your child to understand and improve how they communicate, their relationships, their leadership skills and which problem-solving techniques are best for their unique striving instincts.

The Kolbe Y™ Index is a short questionnaire for children 10+ years old that calculates responses and reveals unique instincts that drive action. Instinct is deeper than knowledge or feelings; it is what makes you tick and what drives you to do things YOUR way. Why is this important to know? When you do things YOUR way, it eases the stress in your life, you get more done, and you are free to be yourself. It helps knowing you are perfect just the way you are.
The Kolbe Y™ Index is for youth who want to reduce stress and manage schoolwork better. Created by Kathy Kolbe, these assessments are made available by Kolbe Corp.
Parents can help improve communication and relationships, leadership skills, and how to problem-solve using their child's unique striving instincts.
For adults and children age 10 and above, we assess your conative strengths and interests with the Kolbe Career Advantage™. Then, we review your results against career possibilities and offer suggestions.
We leverage assessment tools that have been used by job holders and evaluators for over 40 years to identify the conative strengths required to succeed in specific jobs. This unique methodology can not be found in any other career program.
The Kolbe Career Advantage™ gives your child a future career to strive for based on what they instinctively are inclined to do and their interests.
Perfect for adults and teens 18 years old and above, the Kolbe A Index provides a more detailed explanation of a person's unique strengths. This will help parents understand their own personal way of doing and how they may differ from their children. We can then bridge the gap! Created by Kathy Kolbe, these assessments are made available by Kolbe Corp.
The Kolbe Assessments measure instinctive strengths and abilities. You are happier when you are doing things YOUR way. The Kolbe A Index Assessment gives you the ability to communicate the best way for YOU to creatively solve problems. Learning your strengths will help you understand how to maximize your natural talents.

E3 Discovery believes that every child has his or her own unique ways of doing things.
Whether it’s learning new information or expressing ideas, each child is made with instinctual modus operandi, which are often overlooked or misunderstood. And that’s where we come in.
We champion better self-understanding because it leads to better self-management. And that enables your child to operate at his or her absolute best.

Using the Kolbe methodology and conative research, we empower families with a three-step approach to instinctive knowledge and personal growth.
Our insights into a child’s unique approach to problem-solving are designed so that parents & educators can modify processes, which can ultimately bring out the child’s natural strengths & productivity.
Learning the way your child learns is vital to their success. E3 Discovery offers verified Kolbe assessments that are designed to assist you in educational planning for your children. We also provide additional support and E3 Wisdom Code insights that help make progress possible. This allows parents and teachers the opportunity to better understand your student’s unique needs that help set the path for success throughout his or her education and career.
