Hogan-Powered Executive Readiness Assessment & Strategic Development
“Leadership isn’t just about what you do. It’s about how you think, show up, adapt under pressure, and align with what matters.”
Your Data-Backed Path to Strategic Leadership
At Mindshifts.co, we understand that executive decisions aren't based on guesswork; they're based on data. We utilize globally recognized profiling tools—specifically the Hogan Assessment Suite and Hogan 360—to provide leaders with data-backed clarity on their strengths, derailers, values, and decision-making styles.
These aren't personality quizzes. They’re precision tools that unlock high-impact development and shape how you lead from the inside out. We use them to de-risk succession, accelerate role integration, and elevate leadership presence where it counts.
Why Hogan-Powered Development?
Hogan offers a rare, integrated view of leadership—not just what you do, but how you think, behave, decide, and adapt in real time. Each tool reveals a critical piece of your leadership puzzle.
Together, they create the foundation for deep self-awareness, strategy-proof transition plans, credible leadership presence, and aligned action.
Furthermore, the 360° feedback lays the foundation for growth, credibility, and sustained impact by bridging the critical gap between self-perception and organizational reality. This is the data-backed tool, especially essential for transitioning leaders to decode the new political landscape and secure immediate buy-in.
Here’s How the Data Helps Executive Assessment & Development
Individual Leaders:
Maximizing Personal Success
Executive Development & Coaching: Leaders seeking data-backed clarity for long-term behavioral change and self-mastery.
High-Stakes Transition Mastery: Leaders requiring objective insight into derailers and strengths to accelerate performance during promotions, pivots, or new roles.
Strategic Career Planning: Individuals needing clarity on what they value (MVPI) and reasoning style (HBRI) to validate or inform a strategic career pivot.
Organizational Mandates:
De-Risking Talent Strategy
Succession Planning & Talent Retention: Identifying and developing high-potential leaders for the next executive level, using data to de-risk internal promotions.
Strategic Talent Acquisition: Vetting external critical talent for culture, values, and derailment risk before the offer, minimizing the cost of executive failure.
Leadership Development: Providing an objective, data-driven foundation for targeted coaching and development that drives measurable behavior change across the organization.
Teams & Cohorts:
Securing Systemic Alignment
M&A Integration & Restructuring: Deploying Hogan for cohorts to rapidly diagnose systemic blind spots and cultural misalignment that threaten transformation success.
Building Collective Competence: Using the Hogan Team Report to map collective strengths and derailers, creating a shared language for trust and high performance.
Change Makers (Systemic Change): Supporting executive teams leading transformation by ensuring behavioral protocols are aligned with the new strategic objectives.
The Hogan Assessment Suite: Tools for Strategic Clarity
Hogan offers a rare, integrated view of leadership—not just what you do, but how you think, behave, decide, and adapt in real time. Each tool reveals a critical piece of your leadership puzzle. Together, they create the foundation for deep self-awareness, strategy-proof transition plans, credible leadership presence, and aligned action.
Furthermore, the 360° feedback lays the foundation for growth, credibility, and sustained impact by bridging the critical gap between self-perception and organizational reality. This is the data-backed tool essential for any leader and organization.
Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI)
The HPI measures everyday leadership style and core strengths that predict success in the new executive context. It validates what others see when things are going well.
Hogan Development Survey (HDS)
The HDS identifies Stress Derailers—the patterns and behaviors that emerge under pressure, which, if left unchecked, will compromise executive credibility and derail a transition. It reveals where leadership fails.
Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI)
The MVPI brings forth the underlying drivers and culture a leader will foster. It provides critical clarity on alignment with the team and organizational values, which is essential for successful integration.
Hogan Business Reasoning Inventory (HBRI) & Judgement
The HBRI, combined with Judgement, helps understand a leader's strategic reasoning style (tactical vs. global thinking) and decision agility. It provides data on how they solve complex problems and adapt their thinking to lead organizational evolution.
Hogan 360
The Hogan 360 provides essential insights into a leader's credibility, influence, and executive presence—how others truly experience their leadership. It bridges the critical gap between self-perception and observed behavior, providing the data needed for strategic course correction during integration.
Hogan Team
The Team Report is a crucial diagnostic tool for cohorts and executive teams. It goes beyond individual personality to map collective strengths, systemic blind spots, and cultural values that drive or derail group performance. This report is essential for accelerating integration post-merger or restructuring, identifying systemic derailers that compromise trust, and guiding the leader in building a data-backed strategy to align team values and behaviors with the transformation's mandate.
Hogan Use Cases:
Data-Backed Solutions for Executive Risk
The true value of Hogan assessments is realized when the data is applied to the organization's most critical financial and systemic risks. We use Hogan as a diagnostic blueprint to solve three core executive challenges:
Internal High-Potential Leader:
The 'Readiness' Challenge
The Risk: A high-potential leader (e.g., VP) fails in a major promotion (e.g., COO) due to blind spots or derailer behaviors, such as avoidance or micromanagement, that only emerge under pressure in the new role. The organization loses a top internal talent and wastes the investment.
Hogan Value: We use the HDS (Derailment) to identify these leadership-fatal-flaw indicators proactively. The MVPI (Values) ensures their motivators align with the next level's strategic mandate.
Hogan bridges the skill gap between functional experts and enterprise leaders, ensuring the promotion's success.
External Senior Hire: The 'Culture Misfit' Challenge
The Risk: A costly external executive is hired for millions but fails within 18 months due to cultural mismatch, political friction, or misaligned values. This is a massive, highly visible organizational failure.
Hogan Value: We utilize the MVPI (Values) to conduct a Data-Backed Culture Audit against the organization's core drivers.
This objective data enables the transitioning leader to accelerate cultural assimilation and navigate politics, minimizing the risk of failure due to misaligned values or interaction styles (HPI).
Leading Through Change: The 'Resistence' Challenge
The Risk: A major initiative (Restructure, M&A, Digital Pivot) stalls or fails because the executive leading the change lacks the strategic foresight needed, or because their team lacks systemic alignment.
Hogan Value: We use the HBRI (Reasoning) to assess the leader's strategic decision-making ability in complex situations. The Hogan Team Report diagnoses collective readiness and identifies systemic derailers that compromise trust. This ensures the leader builds a data-backed strategy to align team behavior with the transformation's mandate.

Action: Schedule a Hogan Alignment Call with me to select the right profiling tool(s) based on your executive goals or organizational mandate.
