Since 1970, we have developed and provided high-quality assessments and simulations for individuals, leaders, teams, and organizations to actualize their potential.

Our emphasis on measuring the relationship between human behaviors and performance has allowed us to help millions of individuals achieve self-knowledge and to help thousands of organizations understand their operating cultures and relationship to outcomes such as profitability, employee satisfaction, quality of service, and teamwork.
Our commitment to quality and exceptional reputation has lead to global growth and expansion in the form of 14 Human Synergistics’ international affiliate offices and three US-based offices.
