DISC Mini-Assessment DISC MINI-ASSESSMENT a Preliminary Assessment to Identify you DISC Behaviors Successful leaders throughout history have one thing in common—they know themselves. This means they don’t underestimate what they can do, they don’t sell themselves short and they know their own limitations. More importantly, by understanding themselves, they are able to develop plans to overcome their shortcomings and take full advantage of their strengths to improve their communication and effectiveness with others. DISC is the ideal tool for use in the workplace. It enables leaders and teams to identify their individual performance style. The DISC Assessment does this using the universal language of behavior – HOW we do what we do. Please follow the instructions carefully and do not overthink your responses. It is best to follow your initial choice and then move to the next section. Please prepare 10-15 minutes of uninterrupted time to complete all 24 sections. Each section consists of 4 words or phrases. Select two of the words/phrases that best describe you by darkening in the box to the left of only those two words/phrases. Complete all the sections before moving on to discover your results. If you are unsure of what a word means, you can view the brief definitions on page 4. Again, don’t stress over finding the ‘right’ answer, go with your gut and move on.
