The theory on which the Whole Brain ® Model and the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI ) were built has been supported with reliability and validity evidence from over 30 years of research on a global database comprised of over a million individuals. Ned Herrmann, the originator of the Whole Brain® Model,
From the late 1970s, Ned researched, developed, and validated this dominance model. Ned is considered by many to be the ‘father of brain dominance technology’ (brain research). ‘Creativity in its fullest sense includes both generating an idea and manifesting it – making something happen as a result.’. – Ned Herrmann.
Lateralisation of the brain and handwriting. Ned’s first discovery was that the two hemispheres of our brain, the left and right, each has a specialised type of thinking associated with it. The left focuses on scientific types of thinking and the right focuses on artistic types of thinking.
The Theory Behind the HBDI® and Whole Brain® Technology. Ned Herrmann. better results through better thinking. Dominance, such as handedness, can occur between two parts of a physically living whole. Dominance is perfectly normal and natural.
What Does the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI®) Measure? Through a 116-question, highly validated diagnostic survey, the HBDI® measures four integrated systems of thinking preferences. These four systems can be mapped metaphorically on the human brain through the Whole Brain® Thinking Model, as follows:
In his brain dominance model, Herrmann identifies four different modes of thinking: Key words: logical, factual, critical, technical, quantitative. Preferred activities: collecting data, analysis, understanding how things work, judging ideas based on facts, criteria and logical reasoning.
