DISC is a simple, practical, easy to remember and universally applicable model. It focuses on individual patterns of
external, observable behaviors and measures the intensity of characteristics using scales of directness and openness
for each of the four styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientious.
Assessors apply creative focus to practical, workable concepts and make them doable. They display competitive and
results-oriented interactions but engage others with persuasion rather than through aggressive methods. They are
good at explaining their ideas and the steps required to reach their goals. They are organized and often have a step
by step action plan to assure a good result. They can be quite verbal in stating their dissatisfaction and in criticizing
others who are not contributing.
Below are some key behavioral insights to keep in mind and share with others to strengthen your relationships.
You score like those who may become somewhat impatient or aggressive when under pressure. As long as you realize
this, you can potentially harness this urgency to achieve optimal success on a task. Use your natural optimism to
maintain a positive climate, even when under pressure. You'll get better results and keep more people on board with
the project. Your potential to be aggressive may sometimes lead to conflict. Attempt to minimize this conflict by
taking a more positive, team-oriented approach.
Your response pattern, Evelin, indicates that you tend to be considerate of others, and that you are able to persuade
them in an assertive manner, without being demanding. This can be an asset to the team, especially on complex
projects in which different types of people may be involved.
Your responses indicate that you are optimistic, with a strong desire to win. This spirit can be contagious, and thus
positively influence the team. You score like those who are outgoing, with a keen sense of detail and goal orientation.
You may sometimes surprise others with your specific knowledge of a project or initiative.
Your results indicate that you are able to help initiate complex processes and activity. This comes from two specific
traits: people orientation, and detail orientation. Your "people skills" can be used to engage others in an idea or
process, while your attention to detail can help maintain a level of quality control. The latter is a skill that few people
share and is something that you should attempt to leverage and maximize.
Evelin, you show the ability to be both people-oriented and detail-oriented, with equal skill and confidence. This is a
rare and valuable skill, as it allows you to enlist the help of a wide variety of people who may not ordinarily work well
together, and focus their efforts in the same direction.
Some people don't always "get it" right away. To that point, you show a special skill in helping others visualize the
activities necessary for success. You do this by creating mental pictures for your audience in communicating what the
vision is all about. Using those mental pictures, you are able to illuminate a variety of pathways to success. Be certain
to use this skill when working with team members who are having trouble articulating the vision.
Aesthetic - Strong desire and need to achieve equilibrium between the world around us and ourselves (within) while
creating a sustainable work/life balance between the two. Creative, imaginative, arty, mystical and expressive, this style may
redefine or resist real world approaches to current challenges.
Based on your Motivators assessment Aesthetic score: You may be more interested in functional approaches that generate a
practical return rather than experiencing the uniqueness of a process.
• You may be apprehensive with people who have difficulty cutting to the chase.
• You are not likely to care about how something looks when compared to what something does.
• You are more about function and reliability as opposed to creativity and appearance.
• You will focus on functionality and not waste time or energy on foolishness or frills.
Economic - The motivation for security from self-interest, economic gains, and achieving real-world returns on personal
ventures, personal resources, and focused energy. The preferred approach of this motivator is both a personal and a
professional one with a focus on ultimate outcomes.
Based on your Motivators assessment Economic score: You will appreciate bottom-line results and will likely have a strong
competitive “me first” mindset.
• People who score like you not only compete with others; they compete with themselves.
• Sales, technical, or management training programs must demonstrate a bottom-line gain as a result of your participation.
• Winning and overcoming difficult assignments motivate you.
• You may want to surpass others in material and monetary rewards.
Individualistic - Need to be seen as autonomous, unique, independent, and to stand apart from the crowd. This is the
drive to be socially independent and have opportunity for freedom of personal expression apart from being told what to do.
Based on your Motivators assessment Individualistic score: You likely won’t mind the spotlight, will bring independent ideas
to bear, and may excel in front of others.
• You'll appreciate freedom and autonomy and not being nailed down.
• You won't mind the spotlight and may excel when in front of others.
• You bring interesting and independent ideas.
• You'll enjoy your own special niche as opposed to being part of a whole group.
Power - Being seen as a leader, while having influence and control over one's environment and success. Competitiveness
and control is often associated with those scoring higher in this motivational dimension.
Based on your Motivators assessment Power score: You will endeavor to own the roles and responsibilities under your
leadership and control.
• When you have a challenge to overcome, you will feel better about the environment.
• You likely don't get into the car unless you're driving it.
• You need to direct and control subordinates as opposed to letting them control themselves.
• Winning might be everything: there's likely no Plan B in your mind.
Altruistic - An expression of the need or energy to benefit others at the expense of self. At times, there’s genuine sincerity
in this dimension to help others, but not always. Oftentimes an intense level within this dimension is more associated with
low self-worth.
Based on your Motivators assessment Altruistic score: You will make sure you position yourself, so you don’t get burned
when working closely with others.
• You will protect your own turf at times and want to qualify people you don't know.
• You will likely see certain people as guilty until proven innocent.
• You may think in terms of you first and others last.
• You probably have low tolerance for people who complain and whine about their problems.
Regulatory - A need to establish order, routine and structure. This motivation is to promote a black and white mindset and
a traditional approach to problems and challenges through standards, rules, and protocols to color within the lines.
Based on your Motivators assessment Regulatory score: You see things as either black or white and will endeavor to enforce
the rules you believe are warranted.
Theoretical - The desire to uncover, discover, and recover the "truth.” This need to gain knowledge for knowledge sake is
the result of an “itchy” brain. Rational thinking (frontal lobe), reasoning and problem solving are important to this dimension.
This is all about the “need” to know why.
Based on your Motivators assessment Theoretical score: You will tend to skip over information you consider unnecessary and
will rely solely on what you already know.
"Do as I say"
Since Dominant ‘D’ Styles need to have control, they like to take the lead in both business and social settings. As
natural renegades, they want to satisfy their need for autonomy. They want things done their way or no way at all.
These assertive types tend to appear cool, independent, and competitive. They opt for measurable results, including
their own personal worth, as determined by individual track records. Of all the types, they like and initiate changes
the most. We symbolize this personality type with a lion--a leader, an authority. At least, they may, at least, have the
inner desires to be #1, the star, or the chief.
Less positive Dominant ‘D’ Style components include stubbornness, impatience, and toughness. Naturally preferring
to take control of others, they may have a low tolerance for the feelings, attitudes, and "inadequacies" of co-workers,
subordinates, friends, families, and romantic interests.
Their natural weaknesses are too much involvement, impatience, being alone, and short attention spans. This causes
them to become easily bored. When a little data comes in, Interacting ‘I’ Styles tend to make sweeping
generalizations. They may not check everything out, assuming someone else will do it or procrastinating because
redoing something just isn't exciting enough. When Interacting ‘I’ Styles feel they don't have enough stimulation and
involvement, they get bored and look for something new again. . .and again. . .and again. When taken to an extreme,
their behaviors can be seen as superficial, haphazard, erratic, and overly emotional.
They strive for security. Their goal is to maintain the stability they prefer in a more constant environment. To Steady
‘S’ Styles, while the unknown may be an intriguing concept, they prefer to stick with what they already know and
have experienced. "Risk" is an ugly word to them. They favor more measured actions, like keeping things as they
have been and are, even if the present situation happens to be unpleasant due to their fear of change and
disorganization. Consequently, any disruption in their routine patterns can cause distress in them. A general worry is
that the unknown may be even more unpleasant than the present. They need to think and plan for changes. Finding
the elements of sameness within those changes can help minimize their stress to cope with such demands.
Take it slow
Steady ‘S’ Styles yearn for more tranquility and security in their lives than the other three types. They often act
pleasant and cooperative, but seldom incorporate emotional extremes such as rage and euphoria in their behavioral
repertoire. Unlike Interacting ‘I’ Styles, Steady ‘S’ Styles usually experience less dramatic or frequently-occurring
peaks and valleys to their more moderate emotional state. This reflects their natural need for composure, stability,
and balance.
Conscientious ‘C’ Styles concentrate on making decisions in both logical and cautious ways to ensure that they take
the best available action.
Think deeply
Due to compliance to their own personal standards, they demand a lot from themselves and others and may
succumb to overly critical tendencies. But Conscientious ‘C’ Styles often keep their criticisms to themselves,
hesitating to tell people what they think is deficient. They typically share information, both positive and negative,
only on a "need to know" basis when they are assured that there will be no negative consequences for themselves.
When Conscientious ‘C’ Styles quietly hold their ground, they do so as a direct result of their proven knowledge of
facts and details or their evaluation that others will tend to react less assertively. So, they can be assertive when they
perceive they're in control of a relationship or their environment. Having determined the specific risks, margins of
error, and other variables which significantly influence the desired results, they will take action.
