DiSC® For Today!

Building Bridges to Peak Performance

Today, organizational success depends, more than ever before, on people working together effectively. To achieve Peak Performance you must;

• Communicate clearly,
• Turn ideas into action quickly, and
• Deliver results consistently.

A clear understanding of your personal strengths, a real appreciation of the difference of others, and how your strengths interact with those of others, provides the foundation of a successful performance management system. Our goal is to provide you with the skills you need to achieve your personal and business goals and to ensure organizational success.

Do you ever wonder why. . .

• You seem to get along so well with some people immediately, while with others it’s like mixing oil and water?
• You have friction with some folks, even though you’re both working for the same goals?
• Some people concentrate on the details and can’t see the big picture while others can only see the big picture and have no patience for details?
• Some people can’t keep up with the pace of change while others seem to thrive on creating change?

Many of us were brought up on the Golden Rule, and some still try to live by it. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”. The basic assumption being that that other people want to be treated the same way that we want to be treated. But, as you know that doesn’t always work!

Tony Alessandra’s ”Platinum Rule” takes a slightly different approach – “Treat others the way they want to be treated”. This involves a shift in emphasis from “This is what I want, so I will give others the same thing”; to first trying to understand what others want, and then trying to give them what they want. The goal of the Platinum Rule is productive relationships. You do not have to change your personality, or be submissive. You just have to try to understand what drives other people, and how to adapt your behavior to be more productive with them.

Wouldn’t improved workplace relationships make a difference to performance?

In today’s change oriented society and team based approach to the work environment, the answer is often the difference between excellence and mediocrity. The foundation of personal and organizational success lies in an understanding of self and realizing the impact of personal behaviour on those around you. For more than 40 years organizations worldwide have embraced the language of DiSC®, pioneered by Carlson Learning Compnay, which was then purchased by Inscape Publishing.

The DiSC® model provides a non-judgmental language for exploring behavioural issues in the workplace in your personal life. The DiSC® Classic instrument helps you and your colleagues explore behavioural issues across four primary dimensions:

Every day, organizations use DiSC® to establish a common language, paving the way for successful training and coaching applications. Detailed, personalized information helps people apply DiSC® learning to specific business situations, including sales, leadership development, customer service, and conflict resolution.

All of us have developed distinct ways of thinking, feeling, and acting. These, over time become our established behavioural pattern. The central core of our patterns tends to remain stable because it reflects our individual identities. However, the demands of the work environment often require different responses that evolve into a work behavioral style.
