How do Hogan Assessments
make a difference?
Finding a personality assessment provider that meets your unique business challenges is a demanding task. Hogan Assessment Systems is the only provider in the world that uses three perspectives of personality to differentially describe people in the workplace across 28 major dimensions with 140 subscales.
While other personality questionnaires can only measure you according to how you see yourself, Hogan Assessments inventories measure how others see you, and are available in over 40 languages.
Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI)
Describes day-to-day success factors as seen by an observer.
Hogan Development Survey (HDS)
Provides information about behavior under pressure, stress, or uncertainty from an outside perspective.
Motives, Values & Preferences Inventory (MVPI)
Describes the candidate's perspective on values, preferred environments, and decision-making.

What makes Hogan Assessments stand out?
Hogan Assessments are evidence-based, validated and scientifically proven. They are closely aligned with the quality criteria for diagnostic instruments and procedures defined in DIN 33430 and refer to scientific models that have enjoyed a high degree of consensus among experts for many decades:
- The Hogan Assessments inventory, which describes a person's strengths and potential (HPI), is based on the five-factor model of personality, the foundations of which were laid in the 1930s.
- The HDS inventory, which describes behavior in stress, pressure, and trigger situations, is organized along the three defensive response patterns. Karen Horney first described flight, fight, and freeze responses in the early 1940s. These response patterns were confirmed by neuroscience much later.
- The inventory of MVPI, which describes values and intentions, is based on a thorough review of literature (see McClellan, 1961, among others).
For more information on the scientific basis of the assessments, please refer to the Hogan Assessment Systems technical manual. We are happy to provide these upon request.

Our Consulting Services
Recruiting & Hiring
When we advise clients on the use of Hogan Assessments in recruitment, we prepare them for the upcoming decisions needed. As part of the Hogan consultation, we first create a job requirement profile, then compare this profile with the information provided in each applicant's documents, their Hogan profile and, if necessary, a cognitive performance test.
As part of Hogan consulting, we discuss this comparison with the client and work together to prepare the next steps, usually an interview or an assessment center. The goal of Hogan consulting is to help the client formulate working hypotheses and focus on the critical issues. We also discuss possible interview questions. Hogan consulting in recruiting and hiring can be conducted for individuals or for larger groups of candidates.
In addition, we may also conduct comprehensive audits to systematically determine the competencies and potential of high-stakes candidates. During the Hogan consultation, we discuss the details of the process design for your specific request.
Developing People
Employees want to contribute to success, receive feedback and know their perspectives. People development helps to meet this desire in a structured way and to align it with the interests of the organization. It can significantly improve employees' performance, their interactions with others, and their well-being.
With our people development Hogan consultation, we help you select the right talent, create goal-oriented development plans with them, and measure development progress. Our Hogan consulting makes people development effective using proven models from the Hogan Personality Inventory and other contemporary methods. The goal of our Hogan consulting in the context of people development is to increase the focus, goal orientation and motivation of employees. We take into account that learning success and practice transfer depend on the learning style of the employee. It is a major concern of our Hogan consulting to locate development in everyday life and to implement it there. With the help of Hogan Assessments we assist employees to better understand their personal strengths, values and risks of action and to align them with professional requirements. The ultimate goal is to encourage managers, experts, and teams to take responsibility for their own development.
Developing Teams
We believe that each personality contributes significantly to team performance. To guide you and your team on the path to high performance, we first create a detailed team profile based on the individual results of the Hogan Assessments. Then, as part of our Hogan consulting, we align the team profile with your specific strategic and business challenges. This team analysis helps you understand the team's perspective, performance, and potential conflict issues. The goal of our consulting services is to use Hogan Assessments to help you develop a strategy to improve each area and to give you an overview of what actions would be helpful to achieve this.
The core of team development is a team workshop that we conduct with you in person or virtually. During the Hogan consultation, we define the framework and agree on the best possible approach. Individual feedback on the Hogan profiles can take place before or after the team workshop. Details will be discussed during the initial consultation.
People Analytics
Our recommendation is a data-driven approach to workforce management. By using people analytics, you no longer have to rely solely on gut instinct. People analytics enables HR professionals and managers to make unbiased data-driven decisions. In addition, people analytics helps to test the effectiveness of HR efforts as a whole or of individual initiatives.
As part of our Hogan consulting services, we determine how you can continue to be successful with your workforce in the future. We do this by aggregating your organization's Hogan data and placing it in the context of current challenges. During the consultation, we work together to identify implications and actions for your staff members and candidates to pursue and achieve organizational goals.
