1 Day workshop

Communication is more than talking and listening. Genuine communication requires a deep understanding of another person’s perspective. But when you take into consideration all of our biases, behavioral idiosyncrasies, unspoken emotions, personal agendas and unshared assumptions, this can seem almost impossible. For years, however, DiSC® has successfully helped people understand each other on a more fundamental level.

We all know that people are different. But every once in a while, we experience this diversity in a way that’s truly eye-opening and inspirational. It helps us understand past frustrations and delivers a flood of insight that leads to new solutions.

This program shows participants how to read other people and see how others interpret their behaviors. It leaves them with a gut-level appreciation for the needs of their co­workers. Ultimately, the program helps participants adapt their communication styles in a way that creates an enduring working alliance among group members.

This module sets the stage for your seminar by painting a colorful picture of human differences that participants can easily relate to their own lives. It is designed to generate excitement about the day ahead and open participants up to new possibilities.

Participants will:

• Understand the DiSC model of human nature and develop an appreciation for personal differences
• Get feedback to see the different ways that their behaviors are interpreted by their co-workers
• Read about their co-workers’ DiSC styles and learn how to anticipate their unique preferences
• Gain an empathic understanding for why their co-workers act the way they do
• Recognize the types of communication that are effective and ineffective with each style
• Develop specific communication strategies that build a culture of alliance and collaboration
