OBJECTIVES
Proponent: JOHN HOLLANDHe worked as an Army Classification Interviewer during World War II and later as a university counselor. He found that as he interviewed, he could begin to predict people’s responses based on patterns he noticed over the years. He identified these patterns and divided them into six broad categories.
BACKGROUND OF THE HOLLAND THEORY

HOLLAND PERSONALITY TYPE
These patterns are interesting, but they become more useful when correlated to occupations. Dr. Holland believed that people can be described as a combination of these six types, and that work environments can also be described as a combination of the same six types.
ASSUMPTIONS
If people find a compatible work environment, they are more likely to be satisfied
