Introducing the Whole Brain®

A short introduction to Whole Brain Thinking®, presented by HBDI.

The methodology

We work with Herrmann International, the globally recognised pioneers of Whole Brain Thinking® and creators of the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI®), one of the world’s leading thinking-preference assessments.

Whole Brain Thinking® is based on decades of research into how people process information, communicate, solve problems and make decisions. It provides a practical framework for understanding why people think differently and how those differences influence leadership, teamwork and performance.

Pippa Harrand, Founder of Front Runner Coaches, is a highly experienced, licensed Whole Brain Thinking® practitioner. She has designed every Front Runner Coaches programme around Whole Brain Thinking® principles.

The leadership question

What if the biggest barrier to your performance isn’t your ability… it’s the way you think?

Your HBDI® Profile reveals how you naturally process information, communicate, make
decisions and solve problems.

Once you understand your own thinking preferences, you can adapt your leadership, improve communication and build stronger relationships with people who think differently.

The result is better leadership through better thinking.

Applied every day

More than a profile

Your HBDI® Profile is not a report that gets filed away after one conversation. It is a practical leadership tool you can apply every day.

It helps you understand:

  • âś“ why you naturally communicate the way you do
  • âś“ what influences your decision-making
  • âś“ where your greatest strengths lie
  • âś“ the situations that challenge you most
  • âś“ how others may experience your leadership
  • âś“ how to adapt your approach to improve communication, collaboration and performance

Combined with a professional one-to-one debrief, your profile becomes the foundation for more effective leadership, stronger relationships and better performance.

If you would like a deeper understanding of your own thinking preferences, or your team’s, Pippa offers individual and team HBDI® Profiles and professional debriefs, providing practical insight into how you think, lead, communicate and perform.
