JvR recently hosted Dr Jarrett Shalhoop, of Hogan Assessment Systems. During his first visit to South Africa, he met with a number of current Hogan clients to discuss the use of Hogan Assessments in development programs or advanced assessment systems.
Dr Shalhoop’s presentations to the business sector was well attended, both in Johannesburg and Cape Town. These sessions were aimed at introducing the concept of derailment to business, and highlight the potential impact that managers who derail, can have on interpersonal relationships, customers and companies themselves. He highlighted that failed careers, abandoned projects, strained relationships and organisational failure alike can result from derailment, depending on a person’s discretion, or scope of decision-making and influence.
As part of JvR’s International Lecture Series, Dr. Shalhoop also facilitated an advanced interpretation workshop in Johannesburg as well as Cape Town. Hogan users were trained in competency-based interpretation as well as dealing with conflicting profiles.
Here are a couple of interesting articles written by Dr. Shalhoop on Hogan’s Blog: The Science of Personality.
