About Breanne Harris
When I was a child and people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I told them "I want to tell companies what they're doing wrong. I'm good at it." Therefore, management seemed like an obvious career path, but I decided on a different direction.
I entered the field of
Industrial/Organizational Psychology to help organizations learn how to select the ideal employees and develop them into rock-stars. I received a
Bachelor's degree in
Psychology from the
University of Kansas and a
Master's in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from the
University of Missouri-
St. Louis.
Today, I am the
Solutions Architect for Pearson
Talent Assessment. I work with our current and future customers to help them integrate scientific assessments into their selection, development, and training programs. Specifically, I focus on helping organizations develop great critical thinkers using Pearson's
RED Model of Critical Thinking, Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking
Appraisal, Critical Thinking
Boot Camp, and Critical Thinking University.
In addition, I drive the social media strategy for Pearson TalentLens and am the chief blogger for Critical-Thinkers.com. I regularly speak at at regional HR and OD associations, host webinars, and exhibit at major HR/Training conferences. Come meet me at
SIOP, ASTD, and
Linkage 2011.
Prior to joining Pearson, I was a
Regional Consultant for
CPP and wrote thembtiblog.com.
