Understanding (and adapting) your working style through DISC

Description

DISC is a model of human behavior that helps you understand how you do what you do. It's a language to use (either independently or within a team) to talk about how we work — what motivates us, what irks us, and how we can communicate, manage, sell, and generally work more effectively with other people. It contributes to better self awareness, promotes adaptability, and builds empathy around our differences.

Note: this workshop requires every participant to take the DISC assessment in advance of the session. This is ~10 minutes of pre-work, and costs $50 per participant.

During this workshop, we will:

• Learn and explore the language of DISC 
• Discuss DISC case studies to better understand and interpret other people’s style
• Use the DISC vocabulary to practice navigating conflict at work and tailoring communication to people with different styles
• Explore DISC as a way to understand team and group dynamics
  

After the workshop, you will have learned:

• Your own DISC profile: every participant will walk away with a 20+ page individualized report with resources and tools to understand their own style and how to work most effectively with others

• Note: if teams are going through this workshop together, you’ll also receive a team report

• A sense of how to “read” DISC and use the language to work more effectively with others, particularly those who are different than you
