Hogan Development Survey(HDS)

Description

Author: Hogan Assessment Systems, Inc

The Hogan Development Survey (HDS) describes the dark side of personality – qualities that emerge in times of increased strain and can disrupt relationships, damage reputations, and derail peoples’ chances of success. By assessing dark-side personality, you can recognise and mitigate performance risks before they become a problem.

Assessment Scales

The HDS includes the following scales:

• Excitable: Moody, easily annoyed, hard to please, emotionally volatile
• Diligent: Perfectionistic, hard to please, micromanaging
• Bold: Overly self-confident, arrogant, with inflated feelings of self-worth
• Reserved: Aloof, indifferent to feelings of others, uncommunicative
• Skeptical: Distrustful, cynical, sensitive to criticism, focused on the negative
• Colourful: Dramatic, attention-seeking, interruptive, poor listening skills
• Mischievous: Charming, risk-taking, limit-testing, excitement-seeking
• Cautious: Unassertive, resistant to change, risk averse, slow to make decisions
• Leisurely: Overtly cooperative, but privately irritable, stubborn, uncooperative
• Imaginative: Creative, but thinking and acting in unusual or eccentric ways
• Dutiful: Eager to please and reluctant to act independently or against popular opinion
