Unlocking Leadership Potential with femella in Zurich! 🚀   Last week, we had the pleasure of facilitating the "Who You Are Is How You Lead" workshop for the femella association in Zurich. Together, we explored: 👉 What is #personality? How does the Hogan Assessments Assessment measure it? 👉 How does personality shape #leadership style?   We kicked off with an insightful presentation on personality and the Leadership Versatility Index Model, setting the stage for deeper self-awareness in leadership. Throughout the workshop, participants engaged in an interactive role-play exercise, translating theory into practice. The session wrapped up with personalized Hogan Assessments Insight feedback from Florian Franzen, Nicole Neubauer, and Constance Tournier, sparking valuable reflections.   At the heart of leadership growth is strategic self-awareness—because great leadership starts with making behaviors conscious!   Would you like to bring a similar workshop to your organization? Let’s connect!   A big thank you to all the amazing Femellas who joined us: Marinna Schmid Lara Perren Ana Kitanovic Joëlle Francis Maira Stäcker Pascale Tobler Anja Schroeter Stefanie Zürcher Jennifer Yanyu Hu Joane Gautschi Laura Berseth Jana Baur Patricia Naef Mia Allemann Annabel Roten Catharina Constantin   Your PG Guides, Nicole Neubauer Constance Tournier Florian Franzen #LeadershipDevelopment #PersonalityMatters #SelfAwareness #HoganAssessment #MakingBehaviorsConscious #GrowthMindset

💡 How to boost employee engagement and trust? Inspired by Knight Campbell here are 3 tips to create FLOW in your team: ✅ Set clear goals with quarterly milestones Goal-setting is a powerful driver of motivation. Our CEO, Nicole Neubauer, introduced us to the EOS method, which aligns the team through Rocks (big goals) and Milestones (steps along the way)—creating clarity, purpose, and engagement. Each Tuesday, we review the milestones in a Ninety meeting to review where we’re at. ✅ Provide real-time feedback Annual performance reviews? Outdated. Regular check-ins and transparent feedback keep teams aligned and accountable. The EOS system ensures structured, recurring touchpoints to track progress and strengthen trust. ✅ Match challenges to employees’ strengths People enter flow when tasks are challenging enough to require full attention—without overwhelming them ! Within PG, we’re using insights to personal Hogan Assessments results, to understand strengths, risks, and values from one another, making it easier to understand each other and to assign tasks where employees will thrive and grow. 💬 Have you experienced flow at work? We’re curious: share your insights below! 📩 Interested in implementing these methods? Let’s talk! 🔹 Your PG Guides Nicole Neubauer Florian Franzen Felix Diroll Constance Tournier #Flow #EOS #Leadership #Trust #Engagement #Feedback #Performance

What if managers were also evaluated by their team members? Take the exercise! Some leaders exhibit traits such as openness to #feedback, humility, high emotional intelligence, and a focus on development. These qualities are essential for fostering growth and collaboration, yet toxic management remains prevalent. According to the ADP study (The Workforce View in Europe 2019), one in five European employees reports experiencing toxic management. Receiving feedback from N-1 team members can be transformative for leaders—an opportunity to set #ego aside and embrace growth! Leaders open to 360° evaluations often exhibit certain personality traits, that could be reflected in our Hogan Assessments, for example: 🤝 Low #Skeptical (HDS): Receptive to constructive criticism, they seek to understand how their actions impact others and show trust in their team's intentions. 🤝 High #InterpersonalSensitivity (HPI): Equipped with strong emotional intelligence, they understand their own emotions and those of others, fostering empathy and positive change. 🤝 High #LearningApproach (HPI): Motivated by continuous improvement, they see feedback as an opportunity for growth and actively pursue new knowledge and experiences. Let’s build better leaders together! Your PG guides, Nicole Neubauer Constance Tournier Felix Diroll Florian Franzen #Leadership #Development #Feedback #360 #Personality

PG Team Week - What’s Your Favorite #Leadership Style? Our team member Constance Tournier shared with us that her favorite leadership style is #TransformationalLeadership, a model she discovered during her Master in Work and Organizational Psychology. But what does this leadership model look like? Transformational leaders inspire employees to exceed expectations and work toward a shared vision. A meta-analysis of 45 studies by Eagly et al. (2003) also found that female leaders tend to be more transformational than male leaders. When we think about transformational leadership, we think of: 👉 Idealized Influence: Acting as a role model and adhering to principles and values in decision-making. 👉 Inspirational Motivation: Creating a vision and motivating others by offering support. 👉 Individualized Consideration: Recognizing each individual’s unique strengths and providing personalized support. 👉 Intellectual Stimulation: Encouraging innovative thinking and fostering continuous learning. Additionally, a study by Khoo & Burch (2008) found that the ‘#Colorful’ (histrionic) trait of the Hogan Development Survey (HDS) is linked to stronger transformational leadership, while the ‘#Cautious’ (avoidant) and ‘#Bold’ (narcissistic) traits are associated with weaker transformational leadership. Now, it’s your turn to take a Hogan Assessment with us and receive coaching to lead like a transformational leader!

What is your leadership style—or combination of styles—for 2025? 🤔 One way to ensure success in 2025 with your team is to develop self-awareness about your #leadership approach. Ask yourself: How do I lead? What kind of work environment do I naturally create? Am I more relationship-oriented or results-oriented? Hogan Assessments can be an excellent starting point for gaining this self-awareness. By taking the assessment with us, you’ll have the opportunity to better understand your leadership style and, if needed, receive coaching to adapt or refine your approach. Below are some coaching tips tailored to these different leadership styles: 🔢 #Data Leader: Be mindful not to overwhelm your team with your enthusiasm for learning opportunities. 👬 #People Leader: Identify situations where it is critical to make decisions independently rather than seeking full consensus. 📜 #Process Leader: Keep your focus on the outcome while ensuring the necessary steps to reach your goal are well-aligned. 🚀 #Results Leader: Create a log that clearly outlines your short- and long-term goals, along with actionable deadlines. 👩👩👧👧 #Social Leader: Assess where and when it is appropriate to communicate to maximize impact. 🧠 #Thought Leader: Seek feedback from colleagues and team members on your ideas and how effectively you communicate them. Ready to explore your leadership style? Don’t hesitate to reach out to our team for support!

🌟 Team Workshops: Insights from Florian Franzen 🌟 Our Personality Guide, Constance Tournier, had the chance to sit down with consulting expert Florian Franzen to discuss all things team workshops—why they matter, how they’re designed, and what makes them successful. Here are some key takeaways from Florian’s approach: 🧠 "Relating the workshop content to participants' work is absolutely crucial." ✨ "My style is experiential—I aim to create an experience for the team." 👉 "I structure workshops around three key phases: the 'what' (the story), the 'so what' (the meaning), and the 'now what' (the actions)." 🧗 "One-on-one conversations with team members beforehand are incredibly powerful. They build trust and allow team members to share what’s really happening." 🎁 "A tip for team leaders: bring your whole self to the session. Be authentic, inspirational, and remember that you’re part of the team." Interested in a team workshop for your organization?
