7 Major Advantages of the Extended DISC Profiling System

  • The psychometric instrument is easy to use and apply the information generated.
  • DISC is the most widely used behavioural model in the world.
  • You can generate individual, pair and team reports.
  • The profile reports include action plan templates that can be used by the individual and/or manager/supervisor so information can be applied.
  • The profile measures both the subconscious or ‘natural style’ and the conscious or ‘adjusted style’. This tells us both the preferred and therefore normal behaviour plus the adjusted behaviour brought about by reaction to the current environment.
  • Extended DISC can indicate stress, uncertainty about role, insecurity, frustration, and pressure to change.
  • The Extended DISC profile system can indicate the influence of the present environment on a person’s motivation.
