What is DISC?
​
DISC is a model of normal behaviours.
We all display characteristics of each of the four
behaviour types in the model but will naturally display some behaviours more than others.
​
Dominance: Assertive, Direct, Driving
Influence: Communicative, Influential, Positive
Steadiness: Amiable, Dependable, Kind
Compliance: Accurate, Logical, Perfectionist

What value do others bring because they are different to you? How can you rely on them and how can they rely on you?
​​
-
When might you want to adapt your approach to get the best out of others?

"There are many personality profile tools out there, each with their own value. I personally like the DISC model because it is very easy to grasp and very quickly becomes a useful tool for both individuals and teams. When I was first introduced to DISC, it was like flicking a switch, and straightaway I was able to put my learning into my everyday work life and saw the difference it made."
