DISC for Teams
Build stronger, more cohesive teams by understanding behavioral differences and leveraging diverse strengths.
Why Teams Struggle
Most team friction isn't about skills or competence - it's about personality differences.
Misinterpreted Intentions
A "D" style's directness is seen as rude, when they're just being efficient.
Communication Gaps
A "C" needs data before deciding; an "I" wants to brainstorm out loud first.
Unbalanced Workloads
An "S" struggles to say no and burns out while others coast.
DISC Creates Common Language
When a team understands DISC, behavioral differences become strengths instead of sources of conflict.
"Not rude - focused"
"Not scattered - creative"
"Not slow - thoughtful"
"Not picky - thorough"
How Each Style Contributes to Teams
High-performing teams need a healthy mix of all four styles. Here's what each brings to the table:

- Connects people together
- Celebrates wins
The Stabilizer
- Provides consistency

The Analyst
