These are the DiSC® styles in the Thoughtful, Moderate-Paced, Calm, Careful quadrants of the DiSC® model.
If you’re a strong S your value to
the team or a group may be:
Great listener
Dependable team member
Provide solid
implementation plan and see it through
Will help others first
Good at reconciling factions, calming and
stabilizing them
Hard worker for team and cause
Will finish tasks assigned
These are the types of questions you’re likely to
ask:
Is this fair for everyone affected?
Will it benefit all?
How can I help – I want to be of service
Is there more to do?
If you’re a strong C your value to
the team or a group may be:
Organized, disciplined
Set the standards for
the team
Keep the team honest with
their objective thinking process
Perceptive, can see
things other don’t
Ask the tough questions
These are the types of questions you’re likely to
ask:
How does it work?
Who does what?
How will it impact us?
When….?
What…?
Where…?
Alternatives?
Process?
Question for you –
the same as yesterday: Have you consciously appreciated what other styles bring
to the success of a team?
Tomorrow: I mentioned
that were some negative or "less-than-attractive” features to our behavioral tendencies.
Sometimes a strength is so strong that it becomes excess and works against us. We’ll
next look at those “excesses” and behaviors driven by our greatest fears.
My-Not-To-Be-Forgotten-Very-Important-Note: Discovering your behavioral style is intended to help
you understand more about your impact on and relationships with others and how
you can use that information to improve or create strong and effective
relationships – in your personal or professional world.

DiSC Research Reports
Understanding the styles of DiSC® is NOT an opportunity to stereotype
and refer to someone as a “D” (or i, S or C). We all have some of each style within our range of behaviors so
it’s unfair and possibility offensive to call someone by their primary style
indicator. And remember that DiSC® is focusing on a particular role in your
life – circumstances and situations may cause a change in that role and a
change in behaviors. So can styles change? YES! No stereotyping or labeling
allowed.
