WHY DiSC®
Organizations all desire to achieve high-level efficiencies, optimal productivity, reach established goals, maintain cohesiveness among team members, and receive high customer experience ratings. The DiSC® profile is a tool in obtaining these outcomes. On an individual level, by understanding one’s profile, one can work more productively. In peer-to-peer interactions, team members can relate more effectively. Understanding employee profiles can assist leaders in drawing out the best in their teams and thereby serve their customers well.
WHAT IS DiSC® ?
DiSC is a personality profile. Today’s electronic version is easy to complete and comprehensive in its practical application. The profile describes the participant across four categories:
(D) Dominance
( i ) Influence
(S) Steadiness
(C)Conscientiousness.
By answering a series of questions, usually taking 15-20 minutes, the user gains access to a wealth of valuable information about their unique style. This knowledge can be applied to operate more effectively in the work environment and in relationships, sparking a journey of self-discovery and improvement.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Positive results can be anticipated when implementing DiSC® in the workplace. Employees have an opportunity to increase their skills and apply what they have learned to work better together and to achieve the desired outcomes. The profile does not assess skills, talents, or aptitudes but rather how we express ourselves, connect with others, and exhibit behaviors in the workplace.
FORMAT AND COST
Amy White leads a two-hour web-based training for up to 15 people. The cost to the organization is $1,500, plus a $71.25/per participant cost of the profile. In-person training is available for a cost of $1700, in addition to the $71.25 per participant fee, plus travel expenses.
The organization sets up the team event and schedules staff to participate in the training. The trainer will facilitate the users getting the necessary instructions and the link to complete the profile and the comparison reports.
Upon request, Amy will debrief the leadership team as a follow-up to the training.
