Using HOGAN personality assessment tools, we identify individual strengths and weaknesses, behaviors under pressure, and the deep motivations of leaders.

Through personalized sessions, we address the past, present and future of leadership. We probe their vision, aspirations and challenges to gain a holistic perspective of their role and impact.

We can collect testimonials from 3 references to get their feedback on the leaders, their achievements, their strengths and areas for improvement.

Using our WISDOM Index online tool, we invite leaders to assess their own skills and present themselves, offering valuable insight into their strengths and weaknesses.

By integrating feedback from their N+1s, peers and N-1s, we get an overview of leadership in action, identifying areas of excellence and those in need of development.

A leader’s career path is rich in information. By examining their trajectory, we identify key experiences, skills acquired and challenges met.
