Disc Profiling

DISC Profiling

DISC is the leading personal assessment tool used by millions of individuals and organisations to help enhance communication skills, build stronger relationships and improve teamwork and productivity in the workplace. DISC measures the behaviours and motivations of individuals, as well as highlighting personal skills and abilities.

It is an excellent tool for individuals looking to identify their preferred communication style and understand their own strengths and developmental areas. It is also an excellent solution for organisations looking to develop the potential of their employees and increase productivity.

We all have difference preferences in terms of how we like to communicate and how we like people to communicate with us. By understanding our preferences and those of others we can quickly adapt our natural communication style to build rapport with anyone quickly, effectively and consistently, therefore avoiding any potential conflict.

The 4 core DISC behaviours measured are:

  • Dominance – How we respond to problems and changes

  • Influence – How we respond to people and relationships

  • Steadiness – How we respond to pace and consistency

  • Compliance – How we respond to procedures and constraints

The History of DISC

DISC is an acronym that stands for the four main personality profiles described in the DISC model. DISC was first created by Dr William Marston in 1928. Dr William Moulton Marsten was a lawyer and a psychologist who contributed to the first ever polygraph test. He conducted research on human emotions and found that people illustrated their emotions using four behaviour types, Dominance, Inducement, Submission and Compliance.

Then in 1956, an industrial psychologist, Walter V Clarke, constructed an assessment which confirmed Marston’s theory of the DISC model, and he renamed the four behavioural types to Dominance (or drive, RED), Influence (or persuasive, YELLOW), Steadiness (or supportive (GREEN), Compliance (or correct, BLUE).

How Does DISC Profiling Work?

You will complete an online profiling assessment which will produce a detailed report depicting your DISC type and a detailed characterisation of your personality profile. The report will also include graphs showing your personal blend and preferred communication style. I will interpret the results and feed them back to you in a 1:1 setting to ensure that you have a full and concise understanding of your personality assessment.

By taking a DISC Profiling test, you will be able to:

  • raise your own self-awareness regarding personal strengths and developmental areas

  • communicate with others more efficiently

  • create stronger, more effective relationships with others

  • know your motivators and greatest fears

  • build a greater depth of trust with others

  • understand your leadership style

  • realise your personality goals

  • learn your instinctive response to pressure

  • recognise signs of and therefore avoid tension and potential conflict

Testimonials

  • Caroline

    I approached Donna for DISC Profiling, a requirement for my new job. I was slightly unsure of what to expect but Donna instantly put me at ease. She was very relaxed and friendly but extremely professional. I had the results within days and she spent time with me discussing my results and took extra time to discuss any aspect that I was unsure of. It enabled me to approach my interview with extra insight and confidence, and I’m glad to say I got the job! 5* service all the way.

  • Lorna

    I have always wanted to do a personality test to see what I saw in myself was reflected in answers to a set of questions. I also had a couple of disagreements with colleagues at work and a job application that didn’t get through the paper sift. Both which knocked my confidence. I was recommended Donna from New Vision Coaching to see if I could improve things in my life. Donna was brilliant and explained what was expected in simple terms. That no answer was wrong, to not think too deeply on the questions or answers given. I met up with Donna a couple of weeks later for the results. Her professionalism and knowledge interpreting my personality report amazed me. There were a few things I didn’t recognise with myself, however, Donna was very patient, breaking down graphs etc. I definitely recommend Donna and her company especially if you find yourself in a rut and need a different perspective in life.
