The Hartman Value Profile: Understanding What Drives Us
The Hartman Value Profile (HVP), developed by Dr. Robert S. Hartman, is a powerful tool for assessing how individuals perceive and prioritize intrinsic, extrinsic, and systemic values. These dimensions reveal the core of how people think, make decisions, and interact with others:
- Intrinsic Values: Reflect the importance placed on emotions, relationships, and people.
- Extrinsic Values: Focus on results, actions, and tangible accomplishments.
- Systemic Values: Emphasize order, structure, and logical processes.
Key Insights from the HVP
The HVP provides a wealth of information about individuals and teams, including:
- Stress Levels: How individuals manage pressure and its impact on decision-making.
- Realism vs. Idealism: Understanding if someone approaches situations pragmatically or aspirationally.
Conflict Avoidance vs. Assertiveness: Recognizing whether someone tends to shy away from or confront challenges directly.
Applications for Teams
Team Dynamics
Role Alignment
By understanding each member’s value priorities, roles can be aligned with their strengths and motivations, boosting productivity and satisfaction.
Enhancing Collaboration
Teams learn to appreciate and utilize varying perspectives, reducing friction and fostering a culture of mutual respect and creativity.
DISC Assessment: Unlocking Behavioral Potential
The DISC assessment is a cornerstone for understanding behavioral styles, categorizing individuals into four primary styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. These styles illuminate how people approach tasks, interact with others, and respond to challenges.
