DISC Model of Behaviors
DISC identifies a person’s natural behavioral style and how it influences the way they communicate, respond, make decisions, and work with others.
HOW DISC HELPS TEAMS WORK BETTER
DISC gives people a simple, memorable way to understand behavioral differences and how those differences show up at work. It is especially useful for improving communication, collaboration, and day-to-day working relationships.
What does the DISC acronym stand for?
DISC identifies four core behavioral styles that explain how people tend to work and interact:
🔴 D – Dominance
How someone tackles problems and challenges
🟡 I – Influence
How someone communicates, connects, and influences others
🟢 S – Steadiness
How someone handles pace, change, and consistency
🔵 C – Conscientiousness
How someone approaches rules, accuracy, and quality
