What is DISC?
Fast and Effective Personality Profiling
Understanding people is an essential skill when recruiting, managing
and team building. Having a comprehensive and objective view of how a
personality works is a major advantage in the workplace and can give you
the competitive edge you’re looking for. DISC is one of the most popular
personality profiling techniques available today; simple to use, but as
detailed and adaptable as your business needs, with powerful and highly
useful results.

Report
When a set of DISC results shows a high Dominance factor, they're describing someone with an independent attitude and a
motivation to succeed on their own terms. High-D's, (as we call this type of person), have the strength of will to work well under
pressure, and are always ready to take on responsibility.
Ambition:Dominance relates to a
clear set of goals or ultimate aims,
and the determination to work
towards those goals.
13 DISC: The Complete Introduction www.discusonline.com
When a set of DISC results shows a high Influence factor, they're describing someone with a positive attitude to other people
and the confidence to demonstrate that attitude. High-I's, (as we call this type of person), are at their most comfortable in a
social situation, and interact with others in an open and expressive way.
The third of the four DISC factors relates to a comparatively reticent and careful type of person. Compared to Dominance or
Influence, a person whose major factor is Steadiness will tend to be far less open or direct. They'll more usually respond to
events, rather than take pro-active steps.

19 DISC: The Complete Introduction www.discusonline.com
Efficiency
D
D/I : Dominance Higher than Influence
Efficiency appears in a DISC profile when Dominance is significantly
higher than Influence. An efficient individual is direct and assertive,
but has little or no interest in personal matters. They take an
objective, analytical view and drive towards their goals ruthlessly
and relentlessly. They need to see results, and are quite willing to
compromise quality or detail to get them.
I
Self-Motivation
D
D/S : Dominance Higher than Steadiness
Self-motivation appears in a DISC profile when Dominance is
significantly higher than Steadiness. Action is a key ingredient of this
sub-trait. This type of person feels a need to be active all the time,
and is impatient with those who are unwilling or unable to keep up
with their urgent pace. They react quickly to new developments, but S
never lose sight of their own goals and ambitions.
Independence
D
D/C : Dominance Higher than Compliance
Independence appears in a DISC profile when Dominance is
significantly higher than Compliance. This type of person feels
frustrated by rules and regulations - they prefer to follow their own
ideas, and often work alone or in positions of isolated authority. This
sub-trait is common, for example, in entrepreneurial styles.
C
23 DISC: The Complete Introduction www.discusonline.com
Friendliness
I
I/D : Influence Higher than Dominance
Friendly people love to talk - communication is the strongest
element of this style. They are outgoing and extrovert, but they find it
far from easy to concentrate on mundane tasks, and are easily
distracted from such work by the opportunity for social interaction.
Enthusiasm
I
I/S : Influence Higher than Steadiness
This is an outgoing and extrovert sub-trait that has much in common
with Friendliness, but with the added dimension of energy and pace.
This animated style shows their interest in a topic very strongly, and
their effusive nature can act as a motivating factor for others.
S
Self-Confidence
I
I/C : Influence Higher than Compliance
Self-confident profiles represent people who rarely experience self-
doubt, and feel at ease in almost any social situation. They mix
easily with strangers, and are unafraid to initiate social contact. They
can at times become over-confident, leading them to act
impulsively.
C
24 DISC: The Complete Introduction www.discusonline.com
Patience
S
S/D : Steadiness Higher than Dominance
This style of person has little sense of urgency and a slow pace,
which means that they are able to work in situations that others
would find repetitive or dull. They are submissive in style, and ready
to accept that there are some things that they cannot change.
Thoughtfulness
S/I : Steadiness Higher than Influence S
Persistence
S
S/C : Steadiness Higher than Compliance
Persistent people deal badly with change. Once they are
established in a status quo, they find it difficult to break out of this
and adapt to a new situation. They will do what they can to maintain
their current state of affairs, showing great loyalty and resilience in
defence of their present environment and social circle.

Co-operativeness

C/D : Compliance Higher than Dominance
This is the classic rule-oriented sub-trait, of a person who needs to
be absolutely sure of their position and prefers to use established
regulations and procedures as a framework to support their ideas.
This aspect of their personal style extends to the need for practical
support from managers, colleagues and friends, and so they seek to

C/I : Compliance Higher than Influence
This sub-trait, (sometimes named Caution),hates to make mistakes

for certainty means that they will never take a risk unless absolutely
necessary. They are also cautious in communication, rarely I
revealing more about themselves than a bare minimum.
Sensitivity
C
C/S : Compliance Higher than Steadiness
People of this kind are extremely aware of their environment and
changes taking place within it, to the extent that they often notice
subtle points that other people miss or ignore. In itself, this is a
positive factor, but it does have the consequence that they have a
very low boredom threshold and are very easily distracted.

SHIFTS
Each shift has a different significance -
The High-D profile is often described as the Autocrat. Dominance is the factor
of control and assertiveness, and with no other high factors in the profile to
balance this, the pure High-D can be very domineering, and overbearing. This
person has a very high need to achieve, and they are often ambitious and
competitive, striving aggressively to achieve their goals. They are dynamic and
adaptable, and show a decisiveness and a capacity for direct leadership.
This type of profile, showing a high level of Steadiness with no other balancing
factors, is comparatively rare. Steadiness is the factor of patience, calmness
and gentle openness, and a pure High-S will reflect these qualities. They are
generally amiable and warm-hearted, being sympathetic to others' points of
view, and valuing positive interaction. They are not outgoing by nature,
28 DISC: The Complete Introduction www.discusonline.com
Unassertive by nature, often reticent and aloof, people of this kind can give
an impression of coldness or disinterest. Often reluctant to reveal
information about themselves or their ideas unless absolutely necessary,
highly Compliant individuals tend to lack assertiveness and are generally
unwilling to become involved in confrontational situations. Instead, they
will tend to rely on structures and rules, and such people typically have a
systematic and orderly approach to life.

Cultural Integration
About Organisational Cultures
Any successful recruitment process is followed by a phase of cultural
integration. This describes the process by which a new member of staff adapts to
a new organisation, and the particular culture of that organisation. This important
step is often overlooked by recruiters, but is gradually growing in importance
among human resource professionals.
Assessment
Managing a DISC Assessment Programme
A regular assessment schedule is part of the human resources policy of a growing number of companies.
By appraising performance through interviews and management reporting, it becomes possible to build a comprehensive
picture of staff performance, and isolate any problems before they grow to serious proportions. The inclusion of DISC profiling
in this process can further enhance its effectiveness. There are a variety of ways that DISC can help to isolate problems and
suggest possible solutions. These include:

Team Building
Building Successful Teams with DISC
Why is it that some teams work smoothly and effectively together, while
others break down into internal conflict and achieve little? One of the main
factors is the interaction of different styles within the team. DISC provides a useful
predictor of team effectiveness by highlighting possible problem areas and
suggesting ways of resolving them.

Job Matching
Matching Personalities with Ideal Jobs and Roles
Job Matching compares a person's DISC profile with the ideal for any job or role, and sums up how well their
personality matches that role's needs. DISC describes a personality in terms of four numbers, that quantify a person's
behaviour, giving us the possibility of job matching. Using DISC to predetermine the ideal personality style for a role, Discus
matches the factor values in a DISC profile against that ideal, then calculates how well a candidate is suited to it. It's also
possible to highlight strengths, or areas where a person needs development.

A Classic Discus report includes everything you need to get a full overview of a
personality style. As well as extensive and accessible graphs and diagrams, it
also includes a textual analysis describing the individual details of a personality
profile, covering a range of ten different subject areas.
The Enhanced Report extends the Classic format to include no fewer than eleven
extra sections of analysis, covering topics ranging from specific work roles to
behavioural interview questions. Creating an Enhanced report also automatically
unlocks the Feedback Report for the same set of DISC results.
A Job Match report is an optional part of the personality report, looking at ways a
person fits the ideal personality needs of any job or role. It includes an assessment
of any strengths for the role, plus a discussion of potential limitations. Job Match
reports can be freely incorporated into the personality report for any candidate.
A Job Profile describes the personality requirements of any role, and Discus
includes everything you need to create and manage Job Profiles like this. A Job
Profile Report summarises the key features of any role, whether its profile comes
from Discus' extensive library, or from your own custom profile.
More Reports
Beyond personality and job reports, Discus can go further and look at the ways that individuals work together.
There are two different approaches available: a relationship report that examines the dynamics in a single working
relationship, and a team report that examines the workings of an entire group of different personalitytypes.
Discus can create a team report for any size of team, looking at the ways the
personalities of individual members interact with each other to affect the team as a
whole. The report looks at distinct team roles and team dynamics, and highlights
key issues surrounding the team's leadership role.
