DISC and Motivators
DISC is a simple, practical, easy to remember and universally applicable model. It focuses on individual patterns of
external, observable behaviors and measures the intensity of characteristics using scales of directness and openness
for each of the four styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientious.
Coaches bring a great trait, as they actively listen to others and provide sincere support for their efforts. They bring
sensitive insight when engaging with others and can make solid contributions without demanding to be the center of
attention. Coaches can diffuse tense situations with their insightful observations about the big picture and both
individual and group goals. They show both stability and engagement with others. They can increase effectiveness
with a bit more urgency and more specific direction to others.
Personal direction: Building personal connections and encouraging with positive feelings
Strengths offered: A skilled and sincere stabilizing force in both good and difficult times
Contributions to others: Builds sincere relationships with others and provides a listening ear
Getting along with others: Accepting and open attitude toward others
Additional notes: A great coach for everyone, but may need to take a more decisive stand at times
Below are some key behavioral insights to keep in mind and share with others to strengthen your relationships.
John Rey, your score pattern suggests a high degree of persistence and patience in working on projects. This can be
especially important when the assignments are long, detailed, and involve a multitude of personal or complex tasks.
Where others may lose patience and perhaps allow overall quality to lapse, you bring a unique pulse and tempo that
can serve as a model for others.
You show a rare ability to get along with a wide variety of people. This comes from both your sincere interest in
people and from your inherent patience in working with others. You may be able to bring various individuals together
who might not otherwise cooperate.
You score like those who are socially poised without being overly controlling. You have the ability to project
confidence and poise that is perceived as sincere and genuine. Others are likely to notice this, allowing you to
develop trust and credibility with them easily.
Your response pattern to the instrument indicates that you have an empathetic listening style. As you know, this is a
rare gift. Some listening skills can be taught, but the inherent, sincere listening that you demonstrate is something
innate.
You score like those who prefer to establish long-term relationships, rather than brief, superficial ones. This perhaps
comes from your preference toward stability in your lifespace, and longer-term relationships may bring that stability.
Friendships and acquaintanceships you have made in the past are important to you, even now.
You have the ability to persuade others, not with hype, but rather with warmth, sincerity, and understanding. These
are perhaps considered "soft sell" tools, but they can make a big impact. This skill comes from the merging of your
"people skills," along with the fact that you tend to be more modest when dealing with people.
Aesthetic - Strong desire and need to achieve equilibrium between the world around us and ourselves (within) while
creating a sustainable work/life balance between the two. Creative, imaginative, arty, mystical and expressive, this style may
redefine or resist real world approaches to current challenges.
Based on your Motivators assessment Aesthetic score: You will balance yourself between creative alternatives and practical
approaches without being extreme in either dimension.
Economic - The motivation for security from self-interest, economic gains, and achieving real-world returns on personal
ventures, personal resources, and focused energy. The preferred approach of this motivator is both a personal and a
professional one with a focus on ultimate outcomes.
Based on your Motivators assessment Economic score: You will balance yourself between being satisfied with what you have
and a need for more.
• You are realistic and down-to-earth in regards to getting what you believe you deserve.
• Your score indicates a balance between being satisfied with what you have and the need for more.
• Your score indicates that there would be no excessive need to win when engaging with others.
• You have the ability to identify with individuals who have both high and low satisfaction rates.
Individualistic - Need to be seen as autonomous, unique, independent, and to stand apart from the crowd. This is the
drive to be socially independent and have opportunity for freedom of personal expression apart from being told what to do.
Based on your Motivators assessment Individualistic score: You appreciate what others bring to the table and may be apt to
become the unsung hero of any project or team.
• You will likely support others while rarely focusing on gaining the personal support you may want or need.
• You may never make the necessary noise surrounding important issues and may set yourself up for being overlooked.
• Since the squeaky wheel gets the grease, you'll need to speak up to be noticed more.
• Because you don't seek attention for your efforts, you may be left feeling like a ghost, never drawing attention to yourself.
Power - Being seen as a leader, while having influence and control over one's environment and success. Competitiveness
and control is often associated with those scoring higher in this motivational dimension.
Based on your Motivators assessment Power score: You can mediate all available ideas without an excessive need to control
outcomes.
• You're a stabilizing force in normal team operations and will lead if necessary, but you don't need to.
• You can be both cooperative and competitive depending on the situation at hand.
• You will likely be on board with leaders who are competent, but may struggle with leaders who seem unskilled.
• You are able to understand both aggressive and passive leaders.
Altruistic - An expression of the need or energy to benefit others at the expense of self. At times, there’s genuine sincerity
in this dimension to help others, but not always. Oftentimes an intense level within this dimension is more associated with
low self-worth.
Based on your Motivators assessment Altruistic score: You will make sure you position yourself, so you don’t get burned
when working closely with others.
Regulatory - A need to establish order, routine and structure. This motivation is to promote a black and white mindset and
a traditional approach to problems and challenges through standards, rules, and protocols to color within the lines.
Based on your Motivators assessment Regulatory score: You believe there’s only one way to solve a problem and will
endeavor to work within established boundaries.
• You are likely looking for a cause and a purpose to live up to.
• You'll hold others to your standards and may become vengeful when people break your rules.
• If you're breaking a moral code, you'll justify it.
• You probably believe there's only one-way to get things done: your way.
Theoretical - The desire to uncover, discover, and recover the "truth.” This need to gain knowledge for knowledge sake is
the result of an “itchy” brain. Rational thinking (frontal lobe), reasoning and problem solving are important to this dimension.
This is all about the “need” to know why.
Based on your Motivators assessment Theoretical score: You can rely on both new information and what has worked in the
past when making decisions.
• You want to know why, but won't let it get in your way of getting things done.
• You are a "situational" learner.
• You can just figure things out and get to the bottom of it without having to study too much.
• You understand that investigation is necessary, but you will rarely over-investigate any issue.
"Do as I say"
Since Dominant ‘D’ Styles need to have control, they like to take the lead in both business and social settings. As
natural renegades, they want to satisfy their need for autonomy. They want things done their way or no way at all.
These assertive types tend to appear cool, independent, and competitive. They opt for measurable results, including
their own personal worth, as determined by individual track records. Of all the types, they like and initiate changes
the most. We symbolize this personality type with a lion--a leader, an authority. At least, they may, at least, have the
inner desires to be #1, the star, or the chief.
Less positive Dominant ‘D’ Style components include stubbornness, impatience, and toughness. Naturally preferring
to take control of others, they may have a low tolerance for the feelings, attitudes, and "inadequacies" of co-workers,
subordinates, friends, families, and romantic interests.
Their natural weaknesses are too much involvement, impatience, being alone, and short attention spans. This causes
them to become easily bored. When a little data comes in, Interacting ‘I’ Styles tend to make sweeping
generalizations. They may not check everything out, assuming someone else will do it or procrastinating because
redoing something just isn't exciting enough. When Interacting ‘I’ Styles feel they don't have enough stimulation and
involvement, they get bored and look for something new again. . .and again. . .and again. When taken to an extreme,
their behaviors can be seen as superficial, haphazard, erratic, and overly emotional.
They strive for security. Their goal is to maintain the stability they prefer in a more constant environment. To Steady
‘S’ Styles, while the unknown may be an intriguing concept, they prefer to stick with what they already know and
have experienced. "Risk" is an ugly word to them. They favor more measured actions, like keeping things as they
have been and are, even if the present situation happens to be unpleasant due to their fear of change and
disorganization. Consequently, any disruption in their routine patterns can cause distress in them. A general worry is
that the unknown may be even more unpleasant than the present. They need to think and plan for changes. Finding
the elements of sameness within those changes can help minimize their stress to cope with such demands.
Take it slow
Steady ‘S’ Styles yearn for more tranquility and security in their lives than the other three types. They often act
pleasant and cooperative, but seldom incorporate emotional extremes such as rage and euphoria in their behavioral
repertoire. Unlike Interacting ‘I’ Styles, Steady ‘S’ Styles usually experience less dramatic or frequently-occurring
peaks and valleys to their more moderate emotional state. This reflects their natural need for composure, stability,
and balance.
Conscientious ‘C’ Styles concentrate on making decisions in both logical and cautious ways to ensure that they take
the best available action.
Think deeply
Due to compliance to their own personal standards, they demand a lot from themselves and others and may
succumb to overly critical tendencies. But Conscientious ‘C’ Styles often keep their criticisms to themselves,
hesitating to tell people what they think is deficient. They typically share information, both positive and negative,
only on a "need to know" basis when they are assured that there will be no negative consequences for themselves.
When Conscientious ‘C’ Styles quietly hold their ground, they do so as a direct result of their proven knowledge of
facts and details or their evaluation that others will tend to react less assertively. So, they can be assertive when they
perceive they're in control of a relationship or their environment. Having determined the specific risks, margins of
error, and other variables which significantly influence the desired results, they will take action.
