The MindScan™
Actionable Insight
Transformation Begins with Thinking.
Based on Nobel-nominated Dr. Robert S. Hartman and his Hartman Value Profile, the MindScan™ assessment is an axiological inventory that measures a person’s capacity to make value judgments concerning the world and one’s self. Instead of simply understanding “how” a person behaves, it objectively measures “why” a person behaves the way they do, provides the deepest possible understanding of behavior in the workplace, and reveals precisely how to align your thinking strengths with your business plan to accelerate success.
The Ultimate Assessment
A Better Way to Measure.
Unlike most other behavioral assessments, MindScan™ doesn’t measure what individuals think of themselves. The underlying flaw in the most popular and commonly used assessments is that they subjectively group people by type into a category of “HOW” they behave. Instead, the MindScan™ seeks the underlying truth of “WHY” a person behaves the way they do, based on their thinking patterns. Consider this – certain people might behave the exact same way (“HOW”) for completely different reasons (“WHY”); this means changing the behaviors of these two people would call for two completely different approaches.
The MindScan™ Dimensions
The MindScan™ Assessment is designed to objectively measure each person’s thought processes in “3D” (Three Dimensions)
First Dimension
Intrinsic | Relator Value
Measures how we value ourselves.
Determines our ability to love and be intuitive.
Second Dimension
Extrinsic | Doer Value
Reflects our economic and social understanding.
Measures our capacity for excellence in tasks, projects, and processes.
Third Dimension
Systemic | Thinker Value
Reflects the ability to perceive structures, systems of order, rules of engagement, etc.
Measures capacity for strategic vision, long-range planning, implications, and consequences.
Ultimately Actionable
More powerful than the MindScan™ assessment is the resulting MindScan™ report.
Because it literally “shows” the way a person thinks, it provides a clear understanding of natural strengths, potential weaknesses, and how to maximize strengths while managing potential weaknesses for greatest potential, resulting in ultimate peak performance.
Thinking Overview Graph
Your Perspective of the World and Yourself
CLARITY
Clarity ranges from an Outstanding large blue circle to an Unclear small brown circle (see below). The larger the circle the more clarity we have in being able to see and understand the entire scape and view within that dimension of thinking. The smaller the circle, the less clarity we have to see and understand within that dimension of thinking. The larger clarity circles are much like a wide-angle telephoto lens while the smaller clarity circles indicate a more narrow and blurry view within that dimension.

Practical Thinking
How much clarity do we have to see all the options and the ways things could be done, and do we value taking action or lean toward being more cautious? The larger the clarity, the more options and possibilities we can see.

Structured Thinking
How well do we see structured thinking like rules, regulations, policies, procedures, and financials, and do we prefer everything to be perfect as it “should be,” or do we prefer to disregard the structure, rules, and processes?

External
World
We are all constantly in communication and dialogue with ourselves and others around us. The External World shows how much clarity and attention “bias” we have in the three primary external dimensions of Relator, Doer, and Thinker.
BIAS
Bias is the over or under-attentiveness within dimensions of thinking. A positive Bias of +10 indicates a high value or attention within that dimension while a lower Bias of -10 indicates a lower value or attention within that dimension. I Bias in the middle range of -2 to +2 indicates a balance of Bias within that dimension of thinking.
The relator, also called intrinsic value in traditional psychology, refers to the value of self and others. “Who am I?”
Who Am I
My Being
(Relater)
The Doer, also called extrinsic value in traditional psychology, refers to the value of what could be as in what are all the potential comparative options. “What could be?”
What I'm
Doing Now
(Doer)
The Thinker, also called systemic value in traditional psychology, refers to defined parameters of thinking. “What should be?”
