How Does The DiSC Profile Work?

The DiSC Survey model is often used to develop competencies in the areas of:

  • Communication skills/Conflict management
  • Leadership /Management
  • Productivity
  • Teamwork / Team Building
  • Customer Relations / Sales
  • Change / Transition
  • Diversity Training
  • Coaching / Mentoring
  • Understanding Stress

This DISC profile utilizes the D.I.S.C. model to explore dimensions of behavior and personality. The DiSC Profile was developed from the work of William Moulton Marston who theorized the D.I.S.C. Model. Marston’s model examined the behavior of “normal” people and how their behavioral preferences are affected by their personality and the environment or situation they find themselves in. This four quadrant behavioral personality profile test provides an understanding of people through awareness of temperament and behavioral styles. The four styles that make the model are:

  • Dominance: (D Style)
  • Influence: (i Style)
  • Steadiness: (S Style)
  • Conscientiousness: (C Style)

For over 40 years, the knowledge provided by the DiSC Classic Profile and Personal Profile System 2800 Series® has been used to develop and enhance productive communication, rapport, and relationships for almost 50 million people internationally, through its “Dimensions of Behavior” learning approach.

The DiSC Profile is a learning instrument designed to help people realize to what degree they utilize each behavior style bases on their personality and the situation they find themselves in. DiSC provides feedback designed to help people and organizations build productive teams and development effective management and leadership. It is also used to create powerful sales forces using rapid rapport development and insights into selling styles and buying styles.
