Hogan Launches New Brand Initiative

Hogan recently unveiled a sweeping transformation of its corporate identity and product line up. Hogan’s new charismatic brand is a representation of the company’s innovative ideas and masterfully-designed products and services.

In recent years, Hogan has experienced substantial international and domestic growth by creating ground-breaking assessments, expanding our report offerings, and advancing our technology platform. The brand identity not only reflects these milestones, but also identifies with the charisma and personality of the Hogan name.

We're excited to enter this phase of our continued growth, and will be working closely with our partners and distributors as we make this branding transition over the next several months.

Hogan Announces Solution to Identify

High Potential Leaders

Based on research from a global sample of more than a thousand executive MBA program graduates, the High Potential Candidate Assessment Report allows companies to identify top candidates in relation to specific business competencies.

Requiring less than an hour for completion, the High Potential Report provides a turnkey solution to leadership candidate selection. The candidate registers online, completes the assessments, and the detailed report is emailed to the hiring manager within seconds of completion.

Management Derailment:

Personality Assessment and Mitigation

The base rate of managerial incompetence is about fifty percent, and every competent study of managerial failure points to overriding personality defects as the key issue. These personality derailers undermine a leader's ability to build and maintain a high functioning team.

Bad management can be minimized through selection, development, and managing job transitions carefully. If organizations observe the principles of good management, including how they manage their managers, then they are more profitable. When organizations ignore the principles of good management, they are less profitable, and they subject their employees to unnecessary stress and abuse.
