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:

DiSC Team View Report Free in EPIC

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 Report gathers data from participants who have taken the DiSC Classic 2.0 Profile, or DiSC General Characteristics on EPIC.

The DiSC Team View includes:

• The Individual's Name
• Their DiSC Graph
• Their DiSC Classical Pattern Name

The DiSC Team View report is available for FREE for clients who have an EPIC Account, so you can compare DiSC profiles in as many combinations as you'd like.

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.

The kit includes PowerPoint with embedded video, fully-scripted modular facilitation with activities, handouts, and more.

Ask Great Questions, Listen - Keys to Becoming Approachable

Meredith Bell's most recent article offers great advice for becoming more approachable. Engage people in a topic they care deeply about by asking great "passion-finding" questions to get the conversation flowing naturally. Then listen carefully so you can ask follow up questions to discover what matters most to them.

Read Are You Approachable?

For those looking to boost their listening skills, I recommend the Personal Listening Profile, an online assessment that helps you learn to listen and respond with purpose.
