About Whole Brain Thinking
Herrmann's Whole Brain Thinking is a science-backed methodology that decodes and applies the cognitive diversity of individuals, teams, and organizations. By understanding their thinking preferences, people can better address areas of improvement, collaborate with others, and accelerate toward their goals. Applying Whole Brain Thinking enables team members to improve focus, productivity, and collaboration, achieving synergies between people, teams, and departments to maximize each person's contributions. It reduces unproductive conflict and groupthink by empowering executives, managers, and individual contributors to apply everyone's thinking preferences, swiftly identifying threats, and competing in fast-changing environments. The methodology improves communication and accelerates knowledge transfer through easy-to-use integrations, allowing teams to apply Whole Brain Thinking strategies to real workplace challenges.

BrainFx
Specifically designed to detect what other cognitive tests can miss, BrainFx’s interactive digital cognitive assessments help health professionals better understand a person’s neurofunction, quickly illuminate mild to moderate dysfunction and deliver unique insights for creating more, targeted treatment plans through real-world contextual, function-based activities. BrainFx assessments use the innovative Neurofunctional approach to assessing cognitive function. This means that you assess more than just cognition because, in the real-world, other factors like one’s psychosocial and physical health, or environmental and task-related characteristics can positively or negatively influence cognitive function. By taking the Neurofunctional approach in the design of the assessments, BrainFx’s activities can be more real-world and function-based, more challenging, and ultimately more sensitive. This enables BrainFx assessments to detect what other tests can often miss.

MoCA Cognition
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a brief, 30-question test that helps healthcare professionals detect cognitive impairments very early on, allowing for faster diagnosis and patient care. MoCA empowers healthcare professionals and researchers to detect cognitive impairment related to conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Lewy Body Dementia, VCI/Stroke, frontotemporal dementia, brain metastasis, ALS, sleep behavior disorder, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, head trauma, depression, schizophrenia, heart failure, substance abuse, HIV, COVID, and more. MoCA is regularly used by nurses, primary care and specialty physicians, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, researchers, and other clinicians. It quickly and accurately assesses short-term memory, visuospatial abilities, executive functions, attention, concentration and working memory, language, and orientation to time and place.

HBDI
The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) is a 116-question, highly validated diagnostic survey that measures thinking preferences across four integrated systems, metaphorically mapped onto the brain's quadrants. Developed by Ned Herrmann during his tenure as management education leader at General Electric, the HBDI was created to assess how thought processes and thinking preferences impact management and leadership development. Unlike other assessments that focus on behavior or personality, the HBDI provides insight into an individual's thinking preferences, influencing their approach to problem-solving and decision-making. It does not measure ability, aptitude, or capabilities, nor does it assess activity in specific localized areas of the brain. The HBDI has been utilized by over 4 million people in more than 60 countries and is available in 16 languages. It serves as a foundational tool for organizations aiming to harness cognitive diversity.

CANTAB
Originally developed at the University of Cambridge, the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) includes highly sensitive, precise and objective measures of cognitive function, correlated to neural networks. CANTAB tests have demonstrated sensitivity to detecting changes in neuropsychological performance and include tests of working memory, learning and executive function; visual, verbal and episodic memory; attention, information processing and reaction time; social and emotion recognition, decision making and response control. Cognitive assessments are invaluable tools for understanding the role of specific brain functions across a range of disorders and syndromes; giving insight into underlying causes, identifying ways to detect the earliest symptoms and evaluating the effects of interventions designed to improve brain health.
