Use DiSC for Conflict Management

Many of our clients use DiSC training and coaching to address conflict management. The Everything DiSC Classic Facilitation System is a great resource that contains a number of ready-to-use, fully-scripted course outlines and participant handouts for conflict management and a variety of other applications.

The facilitation system includes the following training modules for conflict management:

• Managing Conflict and Resistance (Full-Day Seminar)
• Reducing Conflict (Full-Day Seminar)

Everything DiSC Classic is appropriate for trainers and coaches who use the following profiles:

* DiSC Classic Paper Profile
* Online DiSC Classic 2.0 Profile
* DiSC PPSS Online (General Characteristics Report)

Can I Create a DiSC Group Culture Report Using DiSC General Characteristics Reports?

Thank you to our clients who participated in our EPIC Account Tutorial today!

A question came up during the webinar that we thought other DiSC / EPIC users may have.

Question: Can I create a DiSC Group Culture Report for a group of learners who have completed the DiSC General Characteristics Report?

Answer: Yes, you may create DiSC Group Culture Reports and DiSC Facilitator Reports using DiSC Classic 2.0, DiSC Classic 2 Plus, or DiSC General Characteristics Reports (DiSC PPSS). Simply follow the instructions found in our EPIC Account User Guide.

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

DiSC Training Exercise: Car Activity

Here is a simple, yet effective DiSC training exercise you can incorporate into your next session that will open up a dialogue about the unique characteristics of each of the DiSC behavioral styles.

DiSC Car Training Activity

1. Divide participants into 4 groups and provide a flip chart for each group.
2. Ask the first group to write 3 adjectives that describe high "D" behavior. Ask the second group to write 3 adjectives that describe high "i" behavior, etc.
3. Ask each group to determine the kind of car each behavioral style would buy if money were no object.
4. Ask each group what color they would choose.
5. Ask the groups what their bumper sticker would say.

DiSC Group Report Options

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.

Do a side-by-side comparison of the DiSC Group Culture & DiSC Facilitator Reports by viewing the samples below:

Yesterday a client called to ask if we offer a report that provides an at-a-glance comparison of DiSC Profiles.

The DiSC Team View includes:

• The Individual's Name

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!
