About us

A&D Resources specialises in assessment and development of individuals, teams and organisations, as a supplier of personality tests and consulting services.

Hogan Assessment Systems

The personality tests from Hogan Assessments have set industry standards and are used globally. Hogan has more than three decades of experience in drastically reducing staff turnover and increasing productivity.

Assessment

An individual assessment or an assessment initiative impacting a number of individuals is typically initiated to more closely analyse and describe an individual's suitability for a specific role, and get validated insight on motivational drives, strenghts, social ability, likely performance levels and important developmental areas.

Recruitment Assistance

The purpose of using Hogan in the recruitment process is to assess personality-related characteristics that support or inhibit the candidate's suitability for the position.

Leadership & Personality

The activity’s aim is to help leaders gain deeper insight into their personality and its impact on their leadership behaviour. Research shows that although a leader’s professional skills are obvious criteria for success, intrapersonal and interpersonal skills are equally proven in creating long-term results for leaders, but is an often neglected focus area.

The Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI) identifies ideal jobs, positions, and work environments.

Executive Coaching

Our approach to coaching is primarily focused on creating strategic self-awareness and finding new and better strategies to handle problematic situations.

Succession Planning

But if we Southern whale-fishers are not so snugly housed aloft as Captain Sleet and his Greenlandmen were; yet that disadvantage is greatly counter-balanced by the widely contrasting serenity of those seductive seas in which we South fishers mostly float. For one, I used to lounge up the rigging very leisurely.

Hogan Judgement

Hogan Judgement is a comprehensive personality-based approach to judgement and decision-making. It is based on 3 components that describe how you learn, how you make decisions, and how you react to feedback.

EQ

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) – the ability to identify, process, and manage one’s own and others’ emotions.

Hogan Certification

The Hogan Assessment Certification is a workshop that trains participants in using the three Hogan inventories: HPI, HDS and MVPI.

The Engaging Leader

Leadership is the ability to build and maintain a high performing team, and is the fundamental resource for team survival and effectiveness.

Engagement is the tie that binds the leader to a high performing team. Great leaders engage followers, and harness their energy to perform to their highest ability.

Languages and norms

Hogan provides assessments around the globe, a capability bolstered by strategic partnerships on virtually every continent.

See the languages the three assessments HPI, HDS and MVPI are available in. 

Hogan Safety Certification

60% to 80% of workplace accidents are attributed to operator error (personality).

The ultimate purpose of Hogan Safety Certification is to help improve workers’ safety awareness and safety behavior on the job.

The Hogan Team Dynamics Workshop

Hogan Subscale Format Update

In May, 2016 Hogan Assessments will launch a new brick format for graphically displaying HPI and MVPI subscale scores. This new display format is consistent with the format currently used for HDS subscales, although there are some minor differences in what these bricks mean across assessments.

Hogan Feedback

When providing Hogan feedback it is crucial that the person giving the feedback remembers that assessment is an intervention. A Hogan interpretation and feedback is comprehensive and therefore it is essential that our Hogan users have all the material they need to provide the best possible Hogan feedback for their test persons.

Talent Management

Assisting organisations with hiring, developing, retaining and identifying talented people.

By applying our knowledge about competencies, personality-related characteristics, organisation and strategic focus, we are able to contribute and assist organisations' Talent Management Process on many levels.

Recruitment & Selection: Selecting the best people for the right jobs. Candidate selection at all levels can be made more effective. The assessment battery should be adapted to the vacant position and level – it is essential to avoid "assessment overload“.

On-boarding & Engagement: Helping employees get up to speed, assimilated, and valued. Development when in transition is essential for successful performance and new employees should receive a development plan. It is our experience that qualified feedback and coaching minimises the derailment risk for managers in transition.

Performance Management / Retention: Helping employees get up to speed, assimilated, and valued. The use of HPI and HDS help front-line and middle managers to lead more effectively and manage potentially destructive behaviours. It is important to leverage managers' strengths to maximize their effectiveness.

High Potential Programs: Identifying employees' skills and personal qualities necessary for becoming good leaders in your organisation. We can assist you with identifying competencies needed for success at higher levels in the organisation by mapping Hogan assessments scale-scores to the organisation's competency model. By adapting the Hogan domain model to identify individual strengths and development needs plus the most effective development activities it is possible rank the high potentials in an organisation. Hogan Configure is a valuable tool in this process.

Succession Planning: Identifying individuals ready to move into various roles in the organisation. Executive succession mistakes can take 18-24 months to uncover. Even seasoned candidates who are technically and interpersonally skilled can derail if: They don’t fit the job and the organisation. It is important to uncover their personality risk factors. Succession does not equal replacement.
