The DiSC assessment is a valuable tool in helping you capitalize on your strengths and understand how you show up in moments of stress.
So, what are the four behavioral styles that make up the DiSC model of personalities? And how can you leverage an awareness of your type to better communicate with others and thrive in any situation?
On this episode of Career Confessions, I explain how I use the DiSC assessment in my career coaching practice and describe the characteristics of Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Conscientiousness.
I discuss how to use your DiSC style to inform your career development plan, reminding you that your unique perspective as a D, i, S or C is valuable—but it isn’t the only way to operate.
Listen in for insight on identifying someone’s DiSC profile and learn how to deepen connections and communicate effectively with your team based on their behavioral styles.
