Cognitive Ability and Personality at Work: Comprehensive Insights for Key Talent Decisions (10 June 2026)

Missed our recent webinar on “Cognitive Ability and Personality at Work: Comprehensive Insights for Key Talent Decisions”? Watch the replay now!

Can someone be highly creative, but not analytically strong? Or highly rational, but not naturally curious?

We often describe people using personality traits like curious, imaginative, rational, or cautious. But personality alone doesn’t tell the full story.

To truly understand how people perform at work, we also need to understand how they think, process information, and solve problems.

Join Dr. Georgi Yankov, Senior Scientist of Assessment Innovation at Hogan Assessments, as he explores the powerful intersection between cognitive ability and personality, and how together, they shape behaviour, decision-making, and performance.

🎤 Hosted by Ginny Wong, Principal Consultant, Asia at Optimal Consulting with a live Q&A session.

In this session, learn:

• How cognitive ability influences the way personality is expressed at work
• Why traits like “creative” or “rational” can look very different depending on reasoning ability
• How combining personality and cognitive data leads to better hiring and leadership decisions
• The role of the Hogan Business Reasoning Inventory in understanding how people think and solve problems

Optimal Consulting helps organisations make better talent decisions through science-based assessments and leadership development.
