DISC Profile Assessments for Professional Success
The most popular assessment and the world’s #1 behavioral tool, DISC provides a highly-detailed analysis of each individual’s Natural and Adapted behavioral styles. DISC reveals how a person will most likely behave within a given environment, situation, or relationship. It offers prescriptive lessons designed to highlight and maximize self-awareness, intentionality, and interpersonal communication, personally and professionally.
This assessment measures and provides insight into four primary behavioral tendencies and emotions, and explores how these come together in a personal blend of style to create our DISC style:
D - Dominance: Direct and Guarded, Fast-paced and Task-oriented, Focuses on Problems & Challenges, Assertive
I - Influence: Direct and Open, Fast-paced and People-oriented, Focuses on People & Contacts, Persuasive
S - Steadiness: Indirect and Open, Slow-paced and People-oriented, Focuses on Pace & Consistency, Supportive
C- Conscientious: Indirect and Guarded, Slow-paced and Task-oriented, Focuses on Procedures & Constraints, Analytical
Motivators
Just as the DISC assessment gives insight into “how” someone will behave, the Motivators assessment explains “why.” Motivators are the reasons we want to act. They help people to better understand their value hierarchy or belief system. They filter and guide decisions specifically toward the results that reflect them, and they combine uniquely for each person to influence priorities and decision making. Motivators reveal our viewpoint, our mindset, and our paradigm of thought. Motivation influences behavior, decisions, and actions. Finding ways to achieve objectives that resonate and align with core motivations is vital for superior performance. Those who better understand their natural motivators better are far more likely to pursue the right opportunities for the right reasons and get the results they desire.
Research shows successful people share a common trait of self-awareness and an awareness of those around them. Through building a greater understanding of the motivator dimensions in general, it becomes easier to see how they influence and guide behaviors to move people forward.
The Motivators assessment offers an in-depth identification and exploration of seven dimensions and how they uniquely combine to influence behavior, decision, and actions:
Aesthetic is a drive for balance, harmony, and form.
Economic is a drive for return on investment (including time, money, resources).
Individualistic is a drive to stand out as independent and unique.
Power is a drive to be in control or have influence.
Altruistic is a drive to help others at the expense of self.
Regulatory is a drive to establish order, routine, and structure.
Theoretical is the drive for knowledge, learning, and understanding.
Emotional Intelligence
Research indicates that Emotional Intelligence (EIQ) can be learned and can be seen as measurable differences directly associated with professional and personal success. Furthermore, it may be responsible for up to 80% of the success we experience in life. This assessment serves to heighten awareness of our own EIQ, identify relative strengths and weaknesses based on our emotional dispositions, and provide a framework for interpersonal and intrapersonal effectiveness. Boost your interpersonal conflict management skills as well, and learn to tactfully deal with difficult people during stressful situations.
