How Multiple Assessments Add to Success
While DISC is one of the most common assessments used in the workplace, it does not reveal everything you need to know about a person. In fact, DISC only measures behavior style and communication tendencies, or “how” we act in our natural and adapted environments. It doesn’t tell us “why” we act in a certain way, what skills we have, or how well we are aware of our emotions. For almost every situation in training and development, knowing more than one facet of a person will help you provide better, more effective solutions.
Knowing everything about DISC is great, but why stop there? Knowing more about yourself and those around you will even further allow you to leverage your skills and harness your challenges to increase the success you and others bring to an organization. Just imagine how much it would help to know why someone you work with makes the decisions they do or what skills they have that could help you achieve your goals.

In each role your adaptive behavioral style will likely change to fit the situation and its demands. Still, you will consistently maintain the same natural behavioral style, or the real you.
Adapting to Survive or Succeed?
While your natural behavioral style is your true identity, it is not always the behavior we create for others to see. In fact, our adaptive behavior is more observable because we will often make changes to either survive or succeed. [ Read More ]
