Hogan Personality Inventory

Personality assessment is rapidly becoming a best practice for selecting and developing talented employees. The Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) is the industry standard for measuring normal personality; it has a 25-year history of successfully predicting employee performance and helping companies reduce turnover, absenteeism, and poor customer service.

It was the first inventory of normal personality based on the Five-Factor Model and developed specifically for the business community. The Hogan Personality Inventory examines seven core dimensions of the 'bright side' of the personality - characteristics that facilitate or inhibit a person's ability to get along with others and achieve their occupational goals.

Qualified professionals will find the HPI useful for:

• Evaluating overall employability
• Individual career fit assessment
• Talent selection
• Strategic self-awareness of personality strengths and weaknesses

Through an ongoing programme of research and development, the Hogan Personality Inventory continues to be the industry leader. Please contact us to learn more.
