The persolog Personality Factor Model certification lays the foundations for supporting people, teams, and leaders to better understand themselves and others, to collaborate effectively, and to develop personally.
We offer this certification in five different forms.
The persolog Personality Factor Model is a situation-theoretic approach to understanding personality. The difference with the dispositional attributional/theoretical approaches is that persolog does not claim to identify and describe distinct personality traits but rather to describe situational behaviour. To this end, the model uses the basis of these four quadrants.
Discover the D, I, S, and C behavioral dimensions

As a certified persolog trainer, I have recouped my training investment in just two months by helping companies improve their communication using persolog® profiles. Clients report improved employee relations after the workshop, and the tool allows anyone, regardless of technical background, to find themselves in a variety of persolog behavioral styles.
The training has brought us together as a team and enriched us with new insights that we apply in our daily work with candidates and colleagues. The persolog® personality analysis has improved communication and efficiency in our teams and is easy to implement and highly professional, supported by additional consultations.
persolog® is a tool that I have been using for over a decade to effectively create behavioral profiles for human resources development and career counseling for young people. In this regard, the collaboration with Janez Hudovernik has been an invaluable support. The heartfelt thanks from clients confirm the value of persolog in identifying potential and facilitating career decisions.
persolog® profiles has helped me improve the communication and effectiveness of the teams I have led. It also helped me identify my strengths and opportunities for growth. I would highly recommend it to any organization or individual.”

For Whom Certification Is Suitable
Certification is suitable for HR managers, entrepreneurs, HR specialists, in-house trainers, consultants, coaches, and trainers who want to apply the persolog Personality Factor Model in one of the following areas:
- Change management
- Staff selection/recruitment
- Human resources development
- Sales and negotiations
- Managing
- Coaching
- Team development
- Education
When people are under pressure or have internal resistance to change, their behavior in the process needs to be carefully examined. Any internal beliefs that are blocked need to be addressed, and the causes of internal conflicts need to be identified, i.e., the dynamics between intentions, values, and beliefs need to be uncovered. All this, as well as the appropriate adaptation of one’s own behavior to the new circumstances, can be optimally ensured by means of the various techniques, skills, and methods offered by the persolog® Personality Factor Model.
“We hire people for their expertise and fire people for their personality.” There is no better way to describe the biggest mistake in filling key jobs than with this sentence from John Geier. Every new appointment carries risks. How many unspoken expectations will your candidate face? How suitable is the job really? Especially if there are multiple decision-makers for a key post, you are dealing with a number of unspoken expectations that can ultimately lead to the candidate potentially failing in practice. We therefore recommend that you check compatibility as far in advance as possible. A personality model can ensure that you find the most suitable candidates for your key positions.
The persolog® Personality Factor Model helps you identify specific starting points for personal development so that employees progress in areas where their strengths lie.
Most of the time, it takes only a little to make a big deal. Most sales fall through before they are closed or negotiated because salespeople do not respond to their client’s personality, and that is because they do not know their own personality and do not recognize their client’s personality. Only those who know their own behavioral patterns and correctly assess their customers’ behavioral patterns know how to profitably match them. The persolog® Personality Factor Model is the perfect tool to address this very challenge.
Eighty percent of the day-to-day work of managers is communication. To lead successfully, you need to communicate authentically, clearly, and, above all, in a way that works for your employees. For example, if an employee displays conscientious behavior, it is the leader’s job to catch them at their communication level—even if it is, for example, the leader’s dominant behavioral tendency. The persolog® Personality Factor Model helps you understand how well you respond to the communication needs of others.
The people who come to you for coaching have very different challenges. They want to overcome beliefs, change automatisms, and, above all, better understand what happens to their behavior in certain situations. With the persolog Personality Factor Model, you can find concrete starting points that will help you and your coach achieve your coaching goals.
Turning mediocre teams into great ones. That’s what every leader, every entrepreneur, and every coach wants to do. Most of the time, teams don’t work because of communication problems, an unclear understanding of roles, or troublemakers. This is where the personality model comes in. With the help of the persolog Personality Factor Model, make team structures visible and strengthen your team’s performance.
Schools, vocational colleges, training companies, and associations—all these organizations have an integrated educational mission. Central to this mission is promoting the spiritual, mental, and cognitive development of young people. With the persolog® Personality Factor Model, as well as the specially adapted Persolog® Personality Factor Model for Young People, you have a tool at your fingertips to help you meet this important challenge. Once you are certified in the persolog Personality Factor Model, you can also work with the Youth Profile.
