Executive Coaching and Psychometrics: A case study evaluating the use of the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) and the Hogan Development Survey (HDS) in senior management coaching

Mansi, 2007

Short summary: This article shows, through a case study, how two psychological assessments, namely the Hogan Personality Inventory and the Hogan Development Survey, can be used to coach a senior manager on possible ‘dark side behavior’. Dark-side behavior can be described as behavior that becomes visible when managers are under great pressure, are very tired or do not properly monitor their behavior. This behavior can then have a strong (negative) impact on the effectiveness or reputation of a leader. The benefits and pitfalls of using psychological assessments in a coaching process are also discussed at the end of the article.
