Valuative intelligence

Understand how people decide.

Valuative Intelligence applied to your world.

The Hartman Value Profile (HVP) measures the structure a person uses to value: how they read a situation, how they judge others and how they see themselves. The result is a report that takes minutes to read and helps you make decisions. It is used by professionals in human resources, training and coaching.

The method

It is not a personality test.

Almost every questionnaire asks what you prefer. And that is the problem: anyone who prepares for an interview also prepares for a preference questionnaire.

The HVP does not ask about preferences. It asks you to rank. The profile comes from the order the person chooses compared with the expected order, and that order cannot be guessed. There is no «right» answer to look for.

That is why the data holds up: it does not measure what someone says they want, it measures how they value.
