Why we are here, a personal note from Sally Bishop

For those that do not know the history of my operation, I will set out a potted version.

In June 1988, I was trained by Ned Herrmann in the United States to understand, score and apply his first-class thinking-style analysis, the H.B.D.I.. On returning, I decided to use my company, Mind Management Ltd., as a vehicle to launch the concept in the U.K.. At Ned’s request, I changed the trading name and Ned came over for the launch of the Herrmann Institute UK in 1989. From that point, the company became Ned’s official representation in the UK - scoring the H.B.D.I. and running official Accreditation - until his death late in December, 1999.

The global roll-out of the H.B.D.I. has been undergoing a makeover in very recent years and there have been a variety of new developments. It is with a sense of sadness that I have decided the very considerably increase in investments I would have to make to continue my official role is not viable and I found it necessary to resign the status in 2003.

It is indisputable, however, that I have every right personally to score and administer the H.B.D.I. and so I shall continue to do so - and will share my 15 years of experience with those interested in the H.B.D.I. - for the rest of my working life.

I remain associated with some of the most experienced, talented and professional HBDI practitioners in the UK many of whom were also trained by Ned Herrmann over ten years ago. Harnessing the varied experience of this team, training workshops and consultancy can be undertaken on any topic and at any level. We look forward to continuing our high standard of integrity and service to clients well into the future.
