[Wizard Wisdom] Can DISC predict performance?

Everyone loves DISC! It’s fun, simple and easy to learn.

Perhaps that is why DISC is in the top 10 trainings requested by companies year after year.

But it’s missing a bigger predictor of engagement and performance – WHY they do what they do.

A person’s passion and motivation informs us of what they are interested in, what jobs they will love to do and ultimately, how to keep them engaged.

To see how these two assessments work together, first select ONE letter from the square below: D, I, S or C that most describes your behavior. (These stand for Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance.)
