Achievement
People with a high need for achievement (nAch) seek to excel and thus tend to avoid both low-risk and high-risk
situations. Achievers avoid low-risk situations because the easily attained success is not a genuine achievement. In
high-risk projects, achievers see the outcome as one of chance rather than one's own effort. High nAch individuals
prefer work that has a moderate probability of success, ideally a 50% chance. Achievers need regular feedback in
order to monitor the progress of their achievements. They prefer either to work alone or with other high achievers.

Affiliation
Those with a high need for affiliation (nAff) need harmonious relationships with other people and need to feel
accepted by other people. They tend to conform to the norms of their work group. High nAff individuals prefer work
that provides significant personal interaction. They perform well in customer service and client interaction situations.

Power
A person's need for power (nPow) can be one of two types - personal and institutional. Those who need personal
power want to direct others, and this need often is perceived as undesirable. Persons who need institutional power
(also known as social power) want to organize the efforts of others to further the goals of the organization.
Managers with a high need for institutional power tend to be more effective than those with a high need for personal
power.

How to Measure Tips


Outputs assign a scoring system based on the reach to your target audience, tone, prominence,
message delivery, and inclusion of a recommendation or endorsement

Outcomes ask whether the company already has any kind of tracking survey. It can be fairly simple to
add 2-3 questions to such surveys and measure whether the PR activity is affecting audience change. If
such a survey does not exist, there are a number of low cost ways to do .survey research that may be
useful
Business results these are estimated by marketing analytics approaches or through the same survey
used for outcomes. Most companies tend to have departments which measure what is driving their
sales. Bringing PR into that mix is the aim, and often more easily accomplished .than one might expec
