Trusted by 75% of fortune 500 companies, Hogan personality assessments offer a number of tools that help leaders to increase their self-awareness and leadership effectiveness. These include insights into normal personality, derailment characteristics that emerge when under stress and pressure, and the core motives and values that drive people in their work.

The Hogan Insights Report gives you three detailed reports in one:

1. Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI)

The Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) focuses on normal, everyday personality; termed the bright-side personality – qualities that describe how we relate to others when we are at our best. The HPI is different from many other personality tools as it was developed exclusively based on research involving working adults. It describes your performance in the workplace, how you manage stress, interact with others, approach tasks, and solve problems. Assessed against seven scales, the report identifies strengths as well as areas for development.

The Hogan Personality Inventory reports on the following 7 primary scales:

  1. Adjustment – the ability to handle stress, manage emotions, and listen to feedback.
  2. Ambition – leadership, drive, competitiveness, and initiative.
  3. Sociability – a person’s interest in frequent and varied social interaction.
  4. Interpersonal Sensitivity – charm, tact, and social skill.
  5. Prudence – self-control, conscientiousness, and work ethic.
  6. Inquisitive – curiosity, creativity, and openness to experience and ideas.
  7. Learning Approach – learning style and/or preferred method for acquiring new knowledge.

The HPI also reports on the following 6 occupational scales:

  1. Service Orientation – treating customers in a courteous and helpful manner.
  2. Stress Tolerance – handling stress, pressure, and heavy workloads.
  3. Reliability – a willingness to follow rules and respect corporate values in the workplace.
  4. Clerical Potential – a talent for clerical and administrative responsibilities.
  5. Sales Potential – a talent for sales.
  6. Managerial Potential – a talent for building and maintaining effective teams.

2. Hogan Development Survey (HDS)

The Hogan Development Survey (HDS) describes the dark side of personalityqualities that emerge when we are stressed, bored or tired, and that can disrupt relationships, damage reputations, and derail your chances of success.

The HDS Insight Report evaluates 11 forms of interpersonal behaviour that, when overdone, can cause problems at work and in life. The HDS Insight Report helps you to understand your limitations and build your self-awareness in order to mitigate performance risks before they become a problem.
