Why DiSCover your style?

How come they don't understand us!?

Everyone has experienced the frustration of not being able to communicate with another person... of not understanding what makes them “tick” or of not being able to figure out why they do what do.  Haven’t you?

The good news is that human beings are not all the same. The bad news is that human beings are not all the same! Whether this fact is an asset or a problem to you depends on how ‘people’ or ‘DISC’-literate’ you are!

Have you ever noticed that not only do you not relate positively with everyone, but the same approach you use with one person may be totally ineffective with another? That’s because what motivates you isn’t always motivating to someone else - something that keeps Madison Avenue in business!)

The good news is that each style is different – and each has its strengths and weaknesses. After all, you can’t be both strong and weak in everything.  The bad news is that each person does not intuitively know how the other styles think or feel because we tend to reference everything against ourselves.  So if it is obvious we are different, you may ask, “How can we learn more about what makes us each unique?” 

You do have a choice in how your life goes.  It is between “learning by trial and error” and learning by studying and mastering a science.  In the case of personality differences, you can start learning by first taking your own DISC personality profile.   And even if you have already taken a DISC profile somewhere else, you can take it again in another focus – “Me at work,” “Me at home,” “Me in my personal or business partnerships.”  You are changing and growing all the time.  The question is, “How well do you know yourself NOW!?”

So “Why DISCover your style” You Ask?

Understanding what a DISC graph shows gives you a way to let others know how to best communicate with you. Without first understanding how you relate and view others you cannot be an effective communicator. Once you learn what each point on a DISC profile represents, you will know that it is more than words ‘defining’ your personality. It comes in your gestures, your response speed, the tone and volume of your voice, the style of clothes you tend to wear.

Your report presents a non-threatening, scientific analysis of your answers to the DISC Personal Profile gives you a powerful understanding of yourself and others, a clearer insight into interpersonal behavior and relationship interworking, and a way to maximize your potential in any situation where other people are involved.

The positive and prescriptive information gained from completing this self-study, professional growth profile provides the first step in becoming "People-Smart."  'PeopleSmart' people know who they are and are able to "read" the clues in other people's behaviors that suggest that person's likely motivated-needs and personal strengths. With just a little conversation, their "guesses" turn into openings for conversations, and thus this type of awareness makes it easier for them to:

• Understand how others see them.
• Strengthen the alignment and of any team they are on.
• Feel more confident about themselves.
• Manage others for optimal results
• Lead, manage, and Relate appropriately to people with different personalities.
• Create a more accurate resume.
• Answer Interview questions with confidence.
• Know what they love, value, and are best in.
• Listen and communicate to be a better team member or partner.
• Use more of their gifts and talents
• Find their True Purpose.
• Get - or be - the right person in the right role.
• Resolve interpersonal conflicts... for good!

If you don’t already have a way to do this on your own or want to accelerate these capabilities, get started by taking your DISC profile. After you have completed the 10 minute questionnaire you will receive your Profile Report back right on line and have a link to return to see it again or print it from.  This report is created exclusively for you and reflects over 11,000 possible combinations of the answers you could give.

I hope you will stay with it by continuing to follow our Blog, read our articles, and explore all the other types of profiles that will also give you another access to personal and business mastery. This journey we are on is to understand yourself and DISCover what it means to own the Magic of YOU!

Better communication and less conflict is only a click away. 

Until next time, keep that smile on your face!

It beautifies the world!
