Hogan Assessments
At Workplace Wizards, we recognize the transformative power of understanding personality traits for enhancing organizational success. We proudly offer the Hogan Assessment suite, an internationally acclaimed toolset designed to unlock potential and provide deep insights into personality traits that impact workplace dynamics and individual performance.
What is a Hogan Assessment?
The Hogan Assessment suite comprises three specialized components:
- Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI): Evaluates everyday interpersonal style.
- Hogan Development Survey (HDS): Identifies potential performance risks and derailers.
- Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI): Outlines core values and motivators of individuals.
These tools are critical across a variety of organizational activities:
- Recruitment: Enhance your hiring process by understanding the underlying personality traits of candidates to predict job performance.
- Leadership Development: Equip leaders with the self-awareness needed to manage their behaviours and improve interactions with teams.
- Team Dynamics: Analyse team compositions to foster better collaboration and understanding among members.
- Career Development: Empower employees to recognize and leverage their strengths and develop areas crucial for their career paths.
- Succession Planning: Identify and prepare future leaders within your organization by understanding their potential and readiness for higher responsibilities.
- Organisational Alignment: Assess how well individuals’ values and personalities align with your company’s strategic goals and overall work environment.
- Conflict Resolution: Provide insights into personality traits that may lead to conflicts and strategies for managing and resolving these effectively.
- Performance Improvement: Identify specific areas where individuals might struggle and offer data-driven guidance to enhance their professional performance.
- Employee Retention: Understand what motivates and satisfies your employees, leading to tailored strategies that increase job satisfaction and loyalty.
- Change Management: Assess how different personalities perceive and react to change, helping you to tailor communication and change strategies.
Case Study: Recruitment
A client tasked Workplace Wizards with conducting Hogan Assessments for shortlisted candidates for a senior management role to ensure the new hire would complement the existing leadership team, focusing on a strong cultural fit and the ability to effectively implement strategic initiatives. The assessment evaluated not only the candidates’ competencies but also how well they would integrate into the team. The successful candidate demonstrated a robust ability to implement strategies, aligning perfectly with the CEO’s vision and complementing the strategic strengths of the existing team.
The Hogan Assessment aided in:
- Team Composition Analysis: Provided a detailed understanding of the existing leadership team’s strengths, challenges, and derailers.
- Candidate Matching: Assessed how well each candidate’s profile fit the team dynamics, ensuring alignment with the team’s culture and working style.
