Hi Everyone
Last week I had the privilege of delivering a session on DISC profiling for a wonderful client. 80 people, 80 disc profiles all unique and eager to learn more.
Have you ever felt like you are the only normal person and everyone else is strange or an alien?
Behaviour profiling is hugely important because it helps individuals understand their behavioural styles and those of others.
By identifying traits like dominance, influence, steadiness, and conscientiousness, DISC enhances communication, teamwork, and conflict resolution.
It fosters self-awareness and empathy, enabling people to adapt their interactions for better relationships.
Our normal is just that, ours, other people’s normal is very different from ours and that can be a tough lesson to learn.
Every one of us has unique strengths and perspectives. Misunderstandings often arise from differences in communication or thought processes, not intelligence. DISC reveals these differences, showing that what might seem frustrating is often just a different approach or priority. Recognising this builds mutual respect and stronger connections.
This was a great sessions full of laughter, some introspective learning and important takeaways to build communication in a fast growing organisation.
If you like to get in touch about me delivering a session for you, give me a shout
