When managers combine the knowledge of the DISC (behavioral style) model with EQ (Emotional Intelligence), they get a leg-up on other managers. The combination of these two sciences gives managers both the map of the behaviors they can observe and the ability to respond wisely to those behaviors.

The combination of DISC and EQ feels magical because it transforms everyday interactions with employees.

The DISC shows behavioral tendencies – Dominance, Interactive, Steadiness or Compliance. Understanding these categories, managers learn to motivate individually.

High Dominant employees are motivat4ed by results and autonomy.

High Interactive employees want recognition and an optimistic environment.

High Steady individuals crave stability and appreciation.

High Conscientious individuals need accuracy and crystal clear expectations.

Knowing the needs of individuals, managers can deliver motivation in a way that resonates emotionally with each type.

Using their emotional intelligence, managers also learn to Pause, Think, and then Act versus blurting out the first thing that comes into their head.

Learn more about applying DISC principles and EQ philosophies to replace misunderstandings and conflict with inspirational vision and guidance to push your team forward.

You’ll enter an elite circle of managers in your organization.
