The Hogan Development Survey®

The HDS® is a measure of normal personality and represents ground breaking research on eleven behavioural tendencies that can derail career success.

In their book “Why CEOs Fail”, Dotlich and Cario use the results of the HDS® to document the pervasiveness and negative impact of these tendencies among executives.

"CEO’s, as well as all leaders, are vulnerable
to these eleven derailers - deeply ingrained
personality traits that affect their leadership
style and actions."

They suggest that the key to avoiding the negative consequences associated with these tendencies is self-awareness.

The HDS is the only business-related inventory that measures these dysfunctional tendencies. It can be completed on-line 24-7, using one of over 20 languages, in around 15 minutes. UK and other international norms are available.

Hogan Development Survey (HDS)
The "Dark-side" of personality

 

The Hogan Development Survey® (HDS®) contains eleven scales measuring behavioural tendencies that can be barriers to career success. The scales are interpreted in terms of risk—higher scores indicate greater potential for problems on the job. The following are the eleven scales with a brief description of the tendencies associated with higher scores:

Excitable moody, easily annoyed, hard to please, and emotionally volatile
Sceptical distrustful, cynical, sensitive to criticism, and focused on the negative
Cautious unassertive, resistant to change, risk averse, and slow to make decisions
Reserved aloof, indifferent to the feelings of others, and uncommunicative
Leisurely overtly cooperative, but privately irritable, stubborn, and uncooperative
Bold overly self-confident, arrogant, with inflated feelings of self-worth
Mischievous charming, risk taking, limit testing and seeking excitement
Colourful active, energetic, entertaining, dramatic, and attention seeking
Imaginative creative but thinking and acting in unusual or eccentric ways
Diligent meticulous, precise, conscientious, hard to please, and perfectionistic
Dutiful eager to please and reluctant to act independently or against popular opinion
