Our Hogan DOJO takes place in a small group so that intensive working and vivid interaction are possible.

Hogan Advanced Interpretation
Camp for Future I: Deep Dive into Hogan
Format
Two half days virtually
Goal
The Advanced Interpretation workshop will help you learn how to extract the maximum interpretive value from Hogan personality assessment results to gain a comprehensive understanding of candidates, talents, managers, leaders or coaching clients.
You will develop in-depth expertise and techniques for using the three core personality assessments (HPI, HDS & MVPI), and practice synthesizing subscales and scale combinations. This surely helps to form a more nuanced, profound, individualized picture of how someone is likely to behave in a workplace.
This course will teach you how to avoid common interpretive mistakes, such as framing lower Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) scores, disregarding no- or low-risk Hogan Development Survey (HDS) scores, or misunderstanding the way that low scores operate on the Motives, Values, and Preferences Inventory (MVPI) scales.
Last but not least, you will compare and contrast your insights with interpretations from Hogan’s experts. This guided practice will enable you to become confident in your ability to bring the assessment data to life in the real world.
Audience
HR experts, coaches, trainers and executives who are already Hogan certified and wish to practice and further professionalize their application of the Hogan Assessment Suite.

Hogan Advanced Feedback
Camp for Future II: Take it to the Next Level
Format
Two half days virtually
Goal
In this course, you will learn how to deliver high-impact feedback to help people who have taken the assessments get the most out of their results.
This course covers the different types of feedback, including debriefing, developmental feedback, and coaching. You will understand how to structure a feedback session using the comprehensive model, the values model, the job requirements model, or the competency model.
Further you will get a firm understanding of methods for troubleshooting some of the common problems that occur during a feedback. For example, some participants might not trust the accuracy of the assessment results, or they might feel as if the results are accurate in their personal lives but not at work. After taking the course, you’ll feel at ease responding to situations like these.
Develop experience encouraging participation from the feedback recipient and in planning developmental action based on the assessment results and the person’s job responsibilities.

“This Hogan refresher was a great opportunity. It is so nice to go deeper
and deeper in the science of personality.
Thanks to René Kusch for his great facilitation.”

For years I have been using Hogan personality assessment with pleasure and success in coaching executives. The Hogan Advanced certification has met me exactly where I am right now, I have learned a lot and can now better understand the complexity, the possible connections and the subtleties of the Hogan Assessment, both in the interpretation and the Hogan feedback. The speed in the Hogan Advanced Workshop was perfect – thank you very much for this valuable training!
