DISC Behavioral Workshop

The Language of Personality — DISC is one of the most widely used behavioral frameworks in the world, adopted by Fortune 500 companies and organizations of every size. Built on nearly a century of research beginning with William Marston in the 1920s, DISC measures observable workplace behavior — not abstract traits or hidden motivations. It’s practical, approachable, and designed to be understood and applied by everyone in your organization, from frontline employees to senior leaders.

“There are no good or bad profiles — the value comes from understanding your natural tendencies and adapting intentionally.”

The Four Dimensions

D — Results & Control

High: Direct, decisive, results-driven, takes charge
Low: Collaborative, consultative, consensus-seeking

I — People & Energy

High: Enthusiastic, people-oriented, persuasive, optimistic
Low: Reserved, analytical, task-focused, independent

C — Data & Precision

High: Analytical, precise, quality-focused, systematic
Low: Flexible, big-picture, pragmatic, risk-tolerant

S — Pace & Stability

High: Patient, reliable, supportive, team-oriented
Low: Adaptable, variety-seeking, comfortable with change

24 Behavioral Profiles

Unlike simplified tools that sort people into just 4 types, our DISC assessment identifies 24 distinct behavioral profiles based on the two most pronounced dimensions in your pattern. This produces a nuanced, individualized result — like “The Bold Pragmatist” (high D + low C), “The Warm Stabilizer” (high I + high S), or “The Thorough Analyst” (low D + high C) — that captures how you actually show up at work, not just a single letter.

Why DISC?

Easy to Understand

DISC focuses on observable behavior, not abstract constructs. Participants grasp the model quickly and apply it immediately.

Century of Research

Built on Marston’s foundational work from the 1920s and validated through decades of workplace behavioral research.

Behavioral Focus

Measures what people actually do — observable actions and tendencies — rather than abstract personality traits.

Quick Administration

Just 30 paired comparisons completed in 6–10 minutes. Practical for busy teams and large-group workshops.

24 Profiles, Not Just 4

Goes beyond basic type labels with 24 distinct profile combinations that capture the real complexity of behavior.

Development Oriented

Designed for growth and self-awareness, not evaluation or selection. Every profile has strengths — the goal is to leverage them.

Workshop Applications

Team Building

When an entire team completes the assessment, the facilitator maps the team’s behavioral composition — identifying strengths, gaps, and potential friction points. Teams leave with a shared language for discussing differences constructively.

Individual Coaching

Participants receive a detailed coaching report with their profile combination, communication insights, and a personal action plan — building self-awareness and providing tools for intentional growth.

Leadership Development

Leaders learn to recognize styles in others, adapt their approach to different team members, and build psychological safety by honoring behavioral diversity.
