DISC Facilitation now available

Posted in DISC Profiling,One on One coaching,Workshops by persuasivepresentations on March 27, 2012
Tags: , , ,

I’m now a DISC Advanced Facilitator. I chose to be accredited in DISC because of its ease of use in the workplace.

Here are some of the benefits of DISC:

The DISC ADVANCED® Profile
A profile tool for measuring the person’s behavioural style.

The profile provides the following information:

  • Behavioural style overview
  • Attributes describing the person
  • Communication style
  • Learning style
  • How the person responds to supervision
  • How the person prefers to make decisions
  • What motivates the person
  • What the person fears
  • Strengths and weaknesses
  • Work style tendencies
  • What type of work environment the person prefers
  • How the person appears under stress and what they need
  • Conflict behaviours

The report also has an advanced “application” section providing an array of “what now” tools and tips including:

  • Tips for others on how to communicate with the subject
  • Strategies to reduce conflict and increase harmony
  • Action Plan – worksheets, which enable the subject to create desired change
  • An overview of the various styles
  • How to identify another person’s behavioural style
  • How to adapt to the various styles
  • How to communicate with the various styles
  • Identifying tension among the styles
  • Tension among the styles worksheet
  • Communication plans with the various styles

What are some of the applications?

Some of the most common applications for DISC ADVANCED® profiles in organisations worldwide are:

  • Leadership Development
  • Organisational Development
  • Team Building
  • Communication and Interaction skills training
  • Sales Training
  • Recruitment
  • Internal Promotion Selection/Development
  • Succession Planning
  • Customer Service Training
  • Coaching
  • Conflict Resolution

and of course……………

Simply getting the best from your most expensive resource – People.

The DISC ADVANCED® Profile is very easy to use. Unlike other “personality tests”, it is designed specifically for the workplace.

The DISC ADVANCED® Profile is a useful tool not only for the individual him/herself, but for everyone communicating with that person. Its main purpose is to increase understanding of human behaviour; our own and others.
