DISC patterns are more important

Written by Voss Graham on November 6, 2008. Posted in Using Assessments

Keep hearing people who teach the DISC material talk about the high this or the low that – well, this is close to the truth. It is the patterns and combinations that a more important than just a high factor. Yet, everyday people get labeled as a high D, high I, high S or a High C. It then appears that the other factors or elements have no effect upon a person’s behavior.

Let me be perfectly clear on this point – due to the intensity levels and the combinations of highs and lows –  a person’s behavior will change when compared to others. Now this is not even taking into consideration the effect of personal motivators or the levels of personal skills that can impact a person’s performance and results.

Let’s get back to the subject of patterns – a presenter or facilitator of DISC needs to understand how the patterns of the DISC work and influence a person’s “unique behavioral traits.” If you can not do this, then you really need to learn more about the DISC elements. There are self-study manuals and CD’s available to learn more about the combination effect. There is a Great reference book – “The Universal Language of DISC” which is a must read for instructors and managers. Or attend a Train the Trainer session and study to get certification on DISC – you will learn about the patterns.

If you want to learn more about the patterns of DISC, contact our offices at 901-757-4434. We offer the tools for you to learn just how important and useful the DISC assessments are and how to use them. If you don’t know about DISC – well, it is time to learn and know.
