Craig Haas, Ph.D.'s Summary
Since 1998, have acquired real-world experience in the applied field of Industrial-Organizational Psychology (e.g., employee selection, recruitment, talent management, leadership development, employee testing, and organizational surveys) both within organizations and as a consultant. My area of expertise is assessment development and implementation for personnel selection and employee development.
Frequently contacted by colleagues and organizational leaders to provide advice on employee selection, talent management, and leadership development issues.
Have extensive training and expertise in the implementation of personality assessments and assessment centers across a wide range of organizations which has led to the development and implementation of solutions in talent management, executive selection, leadership development, succession planning, high-potential programs, managerial development, promotional assessment, and pre-employment screening across many of the world's largest corporations.
Earned my Ph.D. in Industrial-Organizational Psychology in 2004, and also earned the designations of SPHR and GPHR from HRCI.org..
Formerly, a Sr. Consultant at Hogan Assessment Systems. Before that worked at the Employee Relations Department at the City of Miami, was an Adjunct Professor of Psychology at F.I.U., a Program Manager at the Assessment Center in School of Justice at Miami-Dade College (developing pre-employment and managerial assessment centers), adjunct consultant for Skiversity Inc (developed 3 computer-based basic ability tests), and Statistical Consultant at F.I.U.'s Statistical Consulting Department (statistical consulting for academic faculty's research).
Interesting tidbit about me: Before I worked in the HR and I-O Psychology field I sold residential real estate, and I enjoy meeting people that are active in real estate investing.
Specialties
My primary area of expertise is assessment development and creating assessment driven employee selection and employee development programs (often these are used in various HR or OD initiatives such as: pre-employment screening, personnel selection, organizational fit, corporate mergers, executive assessment, leadership development, executive coaching, succession planning, high-potential or early leaders programs, and/or recent hire's on-boarding).

Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychologists are dedicated to applying psychology to people in the workplace. No, they are not shrinks, rather, their field of psychology tries to understand and measure human behavior to improve employees' satisfaction in their work, employers' ability to select and promote the best people, and to generally make the workplace better for the men and women who work there. They do this by creating tests and by designing products such as training courses, selection procedures and surveys. I-O psychologists direct consulting and executive search firms, serve as executive coaches, work for leadership centers, corporations and companies as well as universities.
