PERSONALITY-ASSESSMENTS
The three facets of personality
The role of personality
A person’s personality plays a crucial role in the selection and development of personnel, because personality traits determine not only how we behave at work and with our fellow human beings, but also which tasks we prefer and which companies we feel comfortable in.
The Hogan Personality Assessments look at three facets of personality: potential, risk and personal values. All assessments are based on decades of research, including the Five Factor Model (FFM), the reference model in personality psychology.
What is special about the Hogan Personality Inventory, apart from its high validity, is that it looks at external perception, i.e., a person’s reputation. Specifically, this means how a person is perceived by superiors, colleagues, and customers.
The Three Assessments for Measuring Personality: Potentials, Risks & Values
Potentials – HOGAN PERSONALITY INVENTORY
DESCRIBES PERSONALITY ATTRIBUTES TO PREDICT JOB PERFORMANCE
The Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) depicts a candidate’s tendencies and characteristics in
normal, work-related situations based on an online assessment. The strengths and weaknesses
of these tendencies are evaluated to support selection and development decisions.
Risks – HOGAN DEVELOPMENT SURVEY
DETECTS PERSONALITY-BASED PERFORMANCE CHALLENGES AND DERAILERS
The Hogan Development Survey (HDS) describes 11 forms of interpersonal behavior that are based
on personality and show when a person is stressed, bored, or fatigued. These can affect relationships
as well as reputation, and thus diminish career prospects. The report helps to understand potential
performance limitations and suggests ways to manage them more successfully.
Values – MOTIVES, VALUES, PREFERENCES INVENTORY
REVEALS A PERSON’S CORE VALUES, GOALS AND INTERESTS
The Hogan Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI) describes a person’s values, objectives, and interests. Thereby, the kind of organizational culture where the person feels comfortable and the kind of management style they prefer are detected. Finding the right culture and leadership fit for a candidate can benefit job satisfaction and productivity.
Hogan procedures are scientifically based on global and national standards, are AGG and EEOC compliant and meet the strict quality criteria of DIN 33430.
All three assessments can also be used “stand alone”. We will be happy to advise you on the selection of the assessments that are the most suitable for you.
Insight Series
The Insight Series is designed to apply that same scientific rigor to the middle — the on-the-ground managers responsible for liaising between top management and staff and delivering results. This series provides a comprehensive outline of individual strengths, performance risks, and core values. From the insights it provides, emerging and midlevel managers can develop the self-awareness necessary for effective performance. It gives a comprehensive outline of an individual’s strengths, performance risks, and core values and can be used as a developmental feedback tool or to contextualize selection.
Leadership Forecast Series
Leadership Matters Organizations depend on leaders to make important tactical decisions, respond to market trends, and set strategic vision. When competent leadership prevails, people and companies prosper. Bad leadership, however, leads to disengaged workers, corporate turmoil, and eventual business failure. Hogan’s flagship product, the Leadership Forecast Series, provides an in-depth look at a leader’s performance capabilities, challenges, and core drivers. Whether your organization uses it for prehire selection, succession planning, or leadership development, your current and future leaders will gain strategic self-awareness to leverage their strengths, avoid behaviors that get in the way of success, and gain insight into the culture they create for their teams based on their motivators and values.
