Personality in the Workplace
Personality is the foundation of how individuals respond to increased stress and pressure in the workplace.
It’s the key to limiting the effects of leader stress on the business. With this in mind, it can be used to create thoughtful, strategic plans for talent acquisition and development.
As an international authority in the science of personality, leadership, and job performance, Hogan specializes in helping organizations respond to complex talent management challenges with reliable, scientifically validated approaches. Using data-driven talent insights, Hogan helps organizations maximize the fit between applicant skills and job roles, improve retention, increase productivity, eliminate bias in hiring, ensure new hires are aligned with organizational culture, and inspire people to do their best.
Grounded in more than 40 years of psychological research, Hogan’s comprehensive suite of talent acquisition and development solutions are based on three core personality assessments:
Hogan Personality Inventory
A measure of everyday personality characteristics that influence a leader’s ability to achieve career goals, build effective teams, and develop future leaders.
Hogan Development Survey
A measure of counterproductive personality characteristics that have the potential to derail the performance of otherwise effective and long-lasting leaders.
Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory
A measure of core values, motives, and unconscious biases that drive leaders’ behavior, thus determining the kind of culture they create for their teams.
Our personality assessments are the industry standard for predicting future job performance among working adults across industries and around the world. The Hogan Development Survey, in particular, has helped countless leaders and employees understand how stress impacts their behavior, then work on cultivating the strategic self-awareness to limit its detrimental effects. For savvy talent professionals, the HDS can help with mitigating the effects of widespread stress in the workplace.
