Our business models, books & AI library Empactify

As a scientist and leadership coach, Bas has created various business models, which he uses in his presentations, books, and coaching. These tools are frequently requested by HR professionals, entrepreneurs, leaders, recruiters, coaches, and educators. You can also find them with a brief explanation on this page. They are freely available for citation.

Bas has written over 150 books and articles on leadership, entrepreneurship, cultural change, and sustainable performance. From his bestselling books and academic articles, an AI library has now been created, made available through our partner platform, Empactify. More than 100 leadership topics can be accessed individually or integrated, in all languages, with tests, quizzes, exercises, podcasts, questionnaires, and much more, by participants in one or more of his seminars or programs.

Platform founder Emile van de Klok: “Empactify was created from the dream of creating positive impact in the world in the most broad and scalable way possible. This dream is becoming a reality, partly because we are able to use the work of Bas Kodden as a source of information and inspiration on our platform.”

Model for Organisational Development

Leadership and management are two different things. Involvement vs. Efficiency. Both are necessary. Start with P3: Develop a goal (Purpose), recruit the best people (People), and uphold the right standards and values (Principles). Use the feminine style of leadership to stimulate employee engagement. Create HEROes in your organisation!

Model for Recruitment & Selection

Talent is important, but (the right) character is everything, as research shows. According to our own research (2014-2016), self-efficacy, adaptability, intrinsic motivation, and intelligence are the most crucial personal traits for sustainable performance. Through structured interviews, using the STAR(R) method and an intelligence test, these important personal traits can be clearly identified.

Model for Personal Leadership

Search for your higher purpose: your Purpose. The art of sustainable performance lies in the unconsciously competent realization of your highest goals – your primary unfinished tasks – by systematically applying today’s most important performance criteria and personal characteristics for sustainable performance. The key principle is: (some) talent is good, but (the right) character is everything!
