HBDI™ Services

The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI™) helps people and organizations gain greater insight into how individuals think, communicate, and work. This enables people to harness the power of their thinking for improved productivity, creativity, and fulfillment.

Developed by Ned Herrmann while a manager at General Electric, the HBDI™ is based on over twenty years of research and is the framework of the Whole Brain Model™. This scientifically proven model can be used to improve communication, enhance teamwork, reduce cost, and increase productivity.

• Whole Brain Thinking™

Rather than assessing individual skills or abilities, the HBDI™ measures a person’s preferences for different thinking styles. Thinking styles affect how different individuals perceive information, make decisions, solve problems and communicate with others.

Awareness of one’s own thinking styles and the ability to understand and use different styles is known as Whole Brain Thinking™. This way of thinking is critical to effectively meeting organizational and customer needs. Whole Brain training can help you and your team think outside the box and better understand the diversity of thinking styles within the organization. We offer a number of HBDI™ services and workshops to help you integrate Whole Brain Thinking™ into your business. Whole Brain Thinking™ can help you:

• Use management styles that work with the people you manage and the organizational culture
• Align employees with the work that they do best
