Developed in conjunction with learning solutions provider, ThinkWise, Inc., Hogan ThinkBox is an online learning resource that incorporates results from the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) and Hogan Development Survey (HDS) to provide just-in-time, powerful resources for today's busy employee.

Hogan ThinkBox offers a new, informal learning environment that gives organizations using the Hogan assessments resources to enhance learning and provide a hands-on personalized experience. Additionally, the tailored resource provides a cost-effective way to extend Hogan-based training, enabling HR managers to increase training efficiency and effectiveness by distilling expert advice and expertise into hundreds of engaging development resources.

"Many business leaders and HR managers are working under tight budget constraints with a big focus on developing managers and leaders," says Greg Barnett, Director of Domestic Consulting at Hogan Assessment Systems. "Hogan ThinkBox provides self-guided, customized coaching and development tools that help employees build on strengths, explore limitations, and maximize career potential."

All resources within Hogan ThinkBox are organized by competency, management topic, or Hogan scale and can be customized to any leadership framework. The development advice is realistic and actionable providing step-by-step guidance on both underuse and overuse of over 60 business and leadership competencies.  With over 700 videos, eCoaching modules, articles and book resources, the content is a compilation of the most authoritative and relevant advice from consultants, professors and business leaders.

Hogan selected ThinkWise to develop the platform based on their ability to collapse advanced and expert knowledge around organizational effectiveness into simple, user-friendly solutions that can be made available to everyone regardless of organization size, location, or type.

"What sets Hogan ThinkBox apart is that it was developed to work in concert with individual HPI and HDS results - as well as with an organization's leadership competencies.  We're particularly excited to be combining the ongoing learning power of ThinkBox with one of most recognized leadership and managerial assessments," says Marc Wenzel, VP of Sales for ThinkWise, Inc.
