New DiSC Profile Coming Soon! Everything DiSC 363 for Leaders
This week our staff attended an Inscape Publishing webinar about Everything DiSC® 363™ for Leaders, the newest DiSC profile in the Everything DiSC Application Library.
We've been working with 360 degree feedback for over 15 years and understand some of the frustrations leaders may have with 360. Open-ended comments can be unfocused, hurtful, unhelpful, and potentially derail the learning process. The data can leave leaders thinking, "Now what?" if it doesn't provide clear explanation or coaching.
Everything DiSC 363 for Leaders offers a new solution that combines the simplicity and power of DiSC with the best components of 360 degree feedback. The report also provides 3 strategies to improve leadership effectiveness that are written to the leader's own DiSC style.
The Everything DiSC 363 report is easy to understand with clear visuals and a conversational narrative style to help interpret and explain the data.
The exclusive CommentSmart feature helps raters give constructive feedback. Raters choose from highly-tested, behavior focused comments that add richness, context, and depth to the feedback. Early users and beta testers commented that the 22+ pages "include all of the core info from a 360 without the snide comments." Everything DiSC 363 offers a "good mix of data and friendly feedback."
If you've been reluctant to implement a 360 feedback program for your leaders, we encourage you to try Everything DiSC 363 for Leaders - arriving later this month!
Check back frequently for updates and visit our website for Everything DiSC 363 for Leaders details (and a NEW white paper "How Everything DiSC 363 for Leaders Fits into Contemporary Leadership Theory").

DiSC Training Exercise: Creating a Group Map
Here's another great DiSC training exercise you can incorporate into your next session.If you use the DiSC Classic Paper Profile or the Online DiSC Classic 2.0 Profile, create a poster using handout 4-2 from the Everything DiSC Classic Facilitation System.
If you use the Everything DiSC Application Library Profiles, create the Poster Template from the Support Materials Folder on your USB drive.
Have each DiSC participant write their name on a sticky dot and place it where they're located on the DiSC map. This will provide a great visual of what the group’s DiSC styles are.
By looking at the DiSC Group Map, everyone can see that:
- We all fall on different places of the DiSC map. Throughout your DiSC session you can teach participants how to adapt their natural style to meet the needs of others.
- Even though some participants might be the same D, i, S or C style, we fall in different areas of the map. This really demonstrates that not all D’s are alike, not all i’s are alike, not all S’s are alike, and not all C’s are alike. There is diversity, even within the styles.
- Learning more about DiSC will help participants learn how to work with people who have a variety of styles and preferences.

DiSC Icebreaker Using the QuikDiSC Card Game
QuikDiSC is a unique card game that engages DiSC learners quickly and increases training effectiveness. QuikDiSC includes four sets of 32 cards. Each card is imprinted with a descriptive word that corresponds to one of the four DiSC dimensions of behavior:
- Dominance
- influence
- Steadiness
- Conscientiousness
Here is a QuikDiSC exercise to use at the beginning of your DiSC workshops that helps participants self-disclose right away.
Deal 5 QuikDiSC cards to each person. Ask the group to trade cards with one another in order to gather 5 words that best describe them. Ask participants to discuss why they chose the words they did. Then have them pick 3 words that describe why they've been most successful in what they do.

Everything DiSC Facilitator Report - Quick Reference Chart & Group Map
DiSC facilitators are always searching for new ways to enhance their training.
The Everything DiSC Facilitator Report is a great tool that shows a composite of a group's DiSC styles and provides information on how DiSC styles can impact an organization's culture.
Is your group comprised mainly of "high D's?" If so, what's it like for a high S to work in that culture? These are the types of questions the Everything DiSC Facilitator Report can help you answer for the groups you work with.
Also, the Quick Reference Chart and Group Map make it visually obvious that although two participants may both be high "D's," but not all "D’s" are identical. You may then facilitate a conversation around those differences and provides strategies for working together more effectively.

DiSC Training Exercise Using the Everything DiSC Video
Incorporating DiSC video clips into your training offers an effective way to introduce participants to the DiSC styles. It also helps them learn how to read the DiSC styles of others.
Try the following exercise in your next training session:
After watching a clip of the DiSC Video, ask participants, "What behavior did you see?" Next ask them, "What did you hear?"
Play the same segment again, this time with the volume turned down, and ask the group to describe the behavior they observed. Watching the video without the volume helps participants tune in to the non-verbals.
The Everything DiSC Video on DVD comes with the Everything DiSC Facilitation System and is also sold separately. The 34-page viewing manual gives an overview of the video content plus step-by-step facilitation suggestions for each section.

Generating Additional DiSC Reports in Your EPIC Account
A client we spoke with recently was pleased to learn that they could generate another report for an individual within their EPIC Account without having them complete the response section again. They were equally happy to learn they didn't have to enter tally box scores manually into EPIC to create the new report.
This feature applies to the DiSC Classic 2.0, DiSC Classic 2 Plus, DiSC General Characteristics Reports, and the Everything DiSC Profiles (Workplace | Management | Sales).
For example, if an employee takes the Everything DiSC Workplace Profile, you may also generate the Everything DiSC Management Profile from their Everything DiSC Workplace scores.

DiSC Video Options
A DiSC client called last week to inquire about a replacement video for their Everything DiSC Classic Facilitation System. They asked if they had to purchase an entire facilitation system or if they could purchase the video separately. They also wondered if we offered any new DiSC videos.
We informed the client that she had several options to consider:
1. Purchase the Everything DiSC Classic Video on DVD for $895 (without purchasing an entire Everything DiSC Classic Facilitation System).
2. Get new contemporary DiSC Video with one of the new Everything DiSC Application Facilitator Kits. With this option she'd get the all-new DiSC Video, PowerPoints, handouts, leader's script - an entire facilitation system - for only $100 more.
a. Everything DiSC Workplace Facilitator Kit $995
b. Everything DiSC Sales Facilitator Kit $995
c. Everything DiSC Management Facilitator Kit $995
The client chose Everything DiSC Workplace because it matched the needs of her audience, and she was excited that the new DiSC video is on a jump drive!
For her next training session she'll use her Everything DiSC Classic PowerPoint, the Online DiSC Classic 2.0 Profile, and the new video from Everything DiSC Workplace. She really likes the Everything DiSC Workplace Profile as well, and may switch entirely to the Workplace program for her next training event.
Feel free to give us a call to discuss your options. 800.278.1292

I spoke with two DiSC clients yesterday about the DiSC group report options within their EPIC Accounts.
The DiSC Facilitator Report provides data that DiSC trainers need to prepare for and work with a group. It includes a breakdown of group members by DiSC style and Classical Pattern distribution. You also get an overview of each style as it relates to group culture. Respondents’ names are included in the DiSC Facilitator Report, which offers an easy way for facilitators to get to know group members.
The DiSC Group Culture Report was designed for opening discussions on group culture. No respondent names are included in the DiSC Group Culture Report.

Everything DiSC Comparison Reports
We're very excited about the NEW Everything DiSC Comparison Reports that Inscape Publishing created for the Everything DiSC Profiles (Everything DiSC Workplace, Everything DiSC Sales, Everything DiSC Management).
The Everything DiSC Comparison Reports may be used for two individuals who have completed any of the DiSC Profiles in the Everything DiSC Application Library. If, for example, a manager completes the Everything DiSC Management Profile, they may compare their report to an employee who completed an Everything DiSC Workplace Profile.
In the example above, the manager would receive one version of the Comparison Report from their own profile's perspective and their employee would receive a second Comparison Report from their profile's perspective.
What else do we love about the Comparison Reports? Anyone with an EPIC Account may run an unlimited number of Comparison Reports for free!

Inscape Publishing's Newest DiSC Profile - Everything DiSC Workplace Has Arrived
Inscape Publishing announced the release of their newest Everything DiSC Online Profile this week. Everything DiSC® Workplace™ the newest training program in the Everything DiSC Application Library, was created to help build more effective and productive working relationships.
The 20-page DiSC Profile is appropriate for all employees, regardless of title or role. DiSC Trainers will love the flexibility and customization options Everything DiSC Workplace offers. Trainers can change the title, remove or rearrange pages, or print only certain sections.

DiSC Helps with Career Transition
Times are tough. More and more people are facing a layoff, wondering what to do next. I read an article yesterday that advised people to consider it a unique opportunity, to take charge of the situation, figure out what you really want to do, and create your own future.
Roger Wenschlag's book We Hug in the Hallways Here could not have hit the shelves at a better time.
Using the DiSC model and case studies, Wenschlag zeros in on style-based motivators and demotivators that can make or break job success. The book describes each of the 4 DiSC styles in-depth, offers case studies of real people in their favorite jobs, and gives tips and recommendations about the kind of work and work cultures that best fit someone of that style.
Take the DiSC Profile and read We Hug in the Hallways Here to help yourself or someone you know find their next job or career.

New Use for Everything DiSC Management!
The newest facilitation System from Inscape Publishing, Everything DiSC Management, has recently been used for Teambuilding!
As with the DiSC Classic, one of the many benefits of utilizing the tool is that every person is able to gain new insights to understanding themselves and others. This knowledge alone helps to build teams. If you are able to take the team even further through the process, they are not only able see how effective they are as managers, but they can also envision the effectiveness of the team.
One of the benefits of using the Everything DiSC Management Profile in a teambuilding setting is that you can help to mold a management team that can rely one another and have that common language in DiSC. Finally, one of the best benefits is that this program lends itself to follow up work, which is where trainers have a genuine opportunity to see growth.

Everything DiSC Pulse - New Training Magazine Column
Inscape Publishing's director of research, Mark Scullard, and president and CEO, Jeffrey Sugerman, debuted a new column, "Everything DiSC Pulse," in the "Training Today" section of Training magazine last month.
In each column they will offer "a learner's perspective on training: what's important, what works, and what doesn't work for learners" and will elaborate on their findings.
In their first column, Learners Say: Simple Techniques Improve Training, Scullard and Sugarman discuss their recent study about common training techniques, and how the presence (or absence) of those elements impacts job effectiveness.
Their findings show that when training included "problem-solving exercises, multiple examples, practice, and action planning, participants noted a significantly greater impact on self-perceived job effectiveness. "

Establishing Effective Communication Channels
I recently had a conversation with a DiSC Trainer who was concerned about an upcoming DiSC Training she had scheduled. The team was experiencing some conflict and upon reviewing their completed profiles (they used the DiSC Classic 2.0 Online Profile), she could see why. Everyone was a high D or C. When I was talking with her about the session, it reminded me of a great article that identifies the success of working with a team very similar to hers. I decided to share it with you...

It's All About Personality: DiSC Drivers
Communication works only from one member of "us" to another. Communication in organization—and this may be the true lesson of our communication failure and the true measure of our communication need—is not a means of organization. It is the mode of organization. —Peter F. Drucker, 1973
I think as trainers and users of DiSC, we all love to learn more about the tools, including ways they are used and how to most effectively use them. With the release of the new Everything DiSC Application Library, a new DiSC model is introduced. The new circular model is simple and intuitive, but it conveys a great deal of information about a person’s DiSC Profile at a glance.
In light of new knowledge, I want to share a great article with you. It’s called It’s All About Personality: DiSC Drivers.
Do you have any feedback or success stories about ways YOU have used the DiSC Application Library (Everything DiSC Classic, Everything DiSC Management, or Everything DiSC Sales)? If so, I would love to hear from you! Please feel free to post...

Celebrity DiSC Styles & DiSC Humor
It’s a busy time in the news these days with the upcoming election. One thing that I love to do when the news starts to flair up is to try and decipher the behavioral styles of the people that I see on TV. It can be a movie star, a TV show character, or your local news anchorperson! Doing this little personal DiSC exercise proves to be very entertaining to me. Here are some examples of public figures that we have analyzed:
¨ High D’s
o David Letterman
o Tiger Woods
¨ High i’s
o Oprah Winfrey
o Jay Leno
¨ High S’s
o Mother Theresa
o Martin Luther King
¨ High C’s
o Woody Allen
o Martha Stewart
I would love to hear about your predictions about the following political figures’ DiSC behavioral styles! Please post your responses in a comment!
¨ Hillary Clinton
¨ John McCain
¨ Barack Obama
¨ George W. Bush
Another thing I love to do is read through some DiSC Humor. For example:
Getting on a busy elevator…
¨ The D walks up, gets on the elevator, and pushes the button that closes the door.
¨ The i lets other in, says “Always room for one more,” and “Come in, you’re going to be late; we’ll wait for you!”
¨ The S will wait in line, moving from one line to another, appearing unable to make a decision.
¨ The C will get on the elevator. If it’s crowded, the C will count the number of people and, if the number is over the limit, will make someone get off.

New DiSC Profile Helps Managers Bring Out the Best in Every Employee
We're very excited about the latest DiSC training program from Inscape Publishing's "Everything DiSC" series.The Everything DiSC Management Profile provides a 26-page report that helps managers understand themselves, their employees, and their own bosses.
Everything DiSC Management focuses on 5 important areas of management:
- Your DiSC Management Style
- Directing and Delegating
- Motivation
- Developing Others
- Working with YOUR Manager
Clients are raving about the customization options Everything DiSC Management offers.
The profile itself is EPIC-based so you can run it right from your own EPIC Account. This allows you to remove or rearrange pages, print only selected sections, or customize the report title.
For example, you could alter the report cover to say, "XYZ Company Management Report" rather than the default title "Everything DiSC Management."
The Everything DiSC Management Facilitation System includes 6 one-hour modules, fully-scripted facilitation with interactive learning activities, facilitator notes, participant handouts, research information, and engaging video built right into the PowerPoint presentation.

A DiSC Question - I'm Stumped!!
Last week I had a great question about the DiSC Profile, specifically the word version. Here is the DiSC question I received:
When looking at the DiSC report on the page with the graph that shows the tally box scoring, what does the column “N” mean? Here is an example of what I am asking to learn more about:
This DiSC question stumped me! I had never heard it before in my 5 ½ years with Resources Unlimited! After some research and a conversation with the publisher, I had an answer. I decided that it is definitely one to be shared. Here is the response I sent:
In all psychological assessments, the null value is used to “level the playing field” for all of the scales. The values that are null (N) do not get measured by any of the scales. An example of this could be the word “happy.” Let’s say that happy would be an “i” word. Well, just because “unhappy” is the opposite, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it is a characteristic of a high “C.” In other words, the word might fit in a “most” category, but not in a “least.” They recommended that you review the research report below. Page 13 was specifically noted…

Has anyone else ever received this DiSC question? If so, how did you respond?

Bring DiSC to a Broader Range of Learners
Did you know there are two response style options for the Online DiSC Classic 2.0 Profile for those who have an EPIC Account?
1. DiSC Word Version—The respondent is presented with four words from which he/she chooses one that is "Most Like Me" and one that is "Least Like Me."
2. DiSC Phrase Version—The respondent is presented with four phrases from which he/she chooses one that is "Most Like Me" and one that is "Least Like Me."
The phrase option allows you to bring DiSC to a broader range of learners as the responses are written at a sixth-grade reading level. It's a great option to use with learners who speak English as a second language.
Both the word and phrase response versions produce the same DiSC Classic 2.0 Report and both response style reports may be used when generating DiSC Group Culture Reports.
Visit the EPIC Account Help section or call 800.278.1292 to learn how to select the DiSC Phrase response style for your Online DiSC Classic 2.0 Profiles.
Note: The Phrase Response version is also available for the DiSC General Characteristics Report.

Everything DiSC Sales Profile
One of the first things I learned when I started working at Resources Unlimited is that not everyone responds the same way to a sales pitch. While it was very enlightening and extremely helpful to learn the processes of selling to our customers, I had a personal experience, where I was the customer, that made me have one of those, “a-ha!” moments. It was then that I truly realized how different each person is and how every sales person needs DiSC training!
Recently, a new sales assessment was released called the Everything DiSC Sales Profile. This new DiSC profile is a 22-page report that uses a circular graph to show your location within the DiSC model. It was designed to help salespeople learn to communicate more effectively and improve their sales relationships by covering three main objectives:
- Understanding their own DiSC Sales Style
- Identifying and understanding their customer’s DiSC buying styles
- Adapting their DiSC Sales Style to meet their customer’s needs
Additionally, the Everything DiSC Sales Profile also includes post-training reinforcement with five personalized Customer Interaction Maps.
To enhance the DiSC assessment, an entire sales training program was developed. The Everything DiSC Sales Program provides everything necessary to deliver valuable DiSC Sales Training using the Everything DiSC Sales Profile.
Have YOU tried the new Everything DiSC Sales Report and/or Sales Program? If so, we would love to hear about your success stories. Please comment below or contact us at 515/278.1292 or info@ResourcesUnlimited.com.
