What is the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument
The HBDI is not a test. There are no right or wrong answers and no “good” or “bad” profiles. The HBDI does not measure intelligence, skill or competency. However, your profile data will provide you with a better understanding of your potential development opportunities.
Prior to the program, you will be asked to complete your own personal HBDI survey. The results of this survey (your personal profile) will be presented and reviewed with you during the Monday morning HBDI session giving you a “picture” of your mental preferences at this time in your life as well as how to apply these learnings in your work place and daily living.
The price of this profile is included in your tuition.
Evening events to include:
?
tour to an Atlanta Braves game
?Group dinner and discussion on Business Ethics
?Thursday evening graduation celebration
?2 open evenings to enjoy the city
