Organisation are being more and more dynamic today to match up to the challenges that massive economic and political restructuring is offering them. Continual improvement is the focal point, with a deep commitment to learning. Gone are the days of cosmetic changes, or age –old business practices. What is required is fresh insights and new perspectives. The biggest change that is however required for all this to be in place is in the basic building block – the individual.
Individuals in today’s workplace no longer survive for themselves but dwell on the success of the teams of which they are a part of. For this they need to be taught not to react” but to “behave”. DiSC profiles can teach your human resources how to bridge the gap between reaction and behaviour by teaching them the common language of the team. DiSC can help them move from just thriving in isolation to being the life and breathe of the team.
The DiSC profiles are available in both paper and online formats, and can be completed in about 15-20 minutes. The respondents are administered a series of forced choice questions about his/her behavioral style. There are question which focus on an individual’s response to their surroundings as well as his views on how other perceive him in situations. The online version of DiSC generates an information – rich , highly personalized report about an individual’s behavioral styles. The paper profiles are self-scored and self-interpreted.

The biggest barrier to effective communication is the inability of the individual to connect to the listener. The dialogue and discovery profiles eases out the gap between style and communication. Once individuals develop a deep awareness of self, the learning can be used to spot the personality and needs of others. With deep seated insights on style, behavior, and motivation as the stepping stones, DiSC profiles carves the pathway towards a culture of innovation and effeciency..
