Why should you use the DISC test in your company?

quote image
Contrary to our belief, people are highly predictable at a behavioural level. Knowing the behavioural styles of the people with whom we interact allows us to develop the ability to foresee many avoidable conflicts and anticipate the reactions that these conflicts generate. In addition, it will help you motivate the people on your team and understand what moves them to action and their professional development.
