In January 1978, Dr. Hanson entered full-time private practice in Consulting Psychology.
Dr. Hanson is currently focused on helping industries, organizations, family owned businesses and individuals improve performance using effective assessment techniques, individualized feedback committed toward action planning and periodic individualized coaching sessions dedicated toward creating improved effectiveness.
While being a highly experienced Executive Coach himself, Dr. Hanson is currently focused on teaching leaders how to engage others in a continuous improvement effort as an "Internal coach" and improve the performance of teams to create "teamwork products."
For the last nine years, Dr. Hanson has been almost exclusively involved with Nucor Corporation (a steel and steel products company) and has been a personal coach to nearly 600 Nucor leaders.
