S – Steadiness/Stabilizing
C – Compliance/Cautious
Developed by William Moulton Marston Ph.D., more than 75 years ago, DISC is an easy to follow and highly reliable behavioral assessment helping people to better understand and communicate with others.
By learning our own communication style and that of others through the DISC process, we will better understand each other, as well as be better understood. Use your DISC assessment for:
