What is DISC?

DISC is the world’s #1 behavioural assessment, taken by millions of people every year and is estimated to be in use by 75% of Fortune 500 companies. DISC is a very simple yet powerful four-quadrant framework used to articulate the common ways that all human beings tend to behave and communicate.

What does DISC measure?

DISC explores the question: HOW do we prefer to behave and communicate?

TTI Success Insights was the first company in the world to computerise the DISC assessment. We are still the only company in the world with a complete reference manual on DISC. Our DISC assessments are comprehensive, research-based and user-friendly to ensure you and your respondents get the best from the experience.

When you are able to:

Understand yourself and your leadership style

Understand others and how they respond best to a leader

Adapt your leadership style to best fit the needs of others

then you can experience:

  1. Better RESULTS and higher productivity

  2. More ENJOYMENT and FUN in life

  3. More PEACE, harmony and cooperation with those you lead and care about

  4. More UNDERSTANDING and CLARITY when working with people

The DISC report

 The Brilliant teams DISC profile is available in a number of different versions specifically designed for different applications. Our suite includes reports designed for use in recruitment and selection as well as more comprehensive coaching and development reports.

Unlike some of the more primitive DISC models, our DISC assessments provide feedback on all four behavioural factors to truly capture how we are unique at a behavioural level and avoid pigeonholing people.

The 4 core DISC behaviours measured are: 

  • Dominance – How we respond to problems & challenges.

  • Influence – How we respond to people & contact.

  • Steadiness – How we respond to pace & consistency.

  • Compliance – How we respond to procedures & constraints.

Versions of the DISC profile

 The DISC profile is available in a number report versions, each designed to support your initiatives and help you achieve your desired results. All of our tools have been designed with flexibility, practicality and multiple uses in mind. This means you can invest once in the right profile and use it throughout the employee life cycle to maximise your investment.

As a single-science report, DISC explores Behavioural Style ONLY. There are four types of reports in the Brilliant Teams DISC series, including:

 DISC Job Profiles – Providing a validated way to profile the unique positions in any business and determine the “ideal” mix of behaviours for a superior performer. We refer to this as “Position Benchmarking”.

DISC Selection Profiles – A shortened version of the full job report designed to provide hiring managers with what they need to understand a candidate’s behavioural mix.

DISC Coaching and Development Reports – A set of reports that comprehensively explores a person’s behavioural style. These reports are available in General, Sales and Executive versions.

DISC Team Reports – A report designed to explore the behavioural style of a group or team. Using the TTI Success Insights Wheel, this report places up to 20 people into a single report to better understand the collective behavioural style of a group or team.
