The Extended DISC better reflects that persons are more complex and multi-dimensional.The Extended DISC® is a unique tool that not only provides valuable information on DISC styles, but it allows individuals to customize assessments unique to their wants and needs. The assessments give respondents their natural, hard-wired DISC Style, not just the DISC style the individual thinks they need to be in order to be successful. The reports tell the respondent who they really are, and how to adjust their behavior with other DISC Styles based on their natural style. It provides that first step in the right direction towards effective communication.
Customize the reports for content, length, pictures, colors, logos, page order, etc. to provide the most relevant and user-friendly assessments.
Provide results that are relevant and specific to the roles (E.g., Executives, Managers, Salespeople, Customer Service Representatives, Team Members, Students, Athletes, etc.).
