Do you dream of employees who can manage and resolve conflict?
Do you crave leaders who respect diversity?
Do you need salespeople who are always well prepared and able to adapt to their customers?
Do you want to better communicate with people?
You will achieve all this more easily by using the DISC® method. DISC® is a tool for knowing and understanding our behavior and the behavior of other people, and at the same time a tool to shape and understand different types of communication.
DISC® tool to understand behavior
We used to divide people into the following personality types: sanguine, choleric, phlegmatic and melancholic. Today we call them blue, red, green and yellow behavioral types. Each color signalizes a specific behavior which (if we recognize it and adapt to it) helps us to achieve successful communication.
The DISC® method helps us to become aware of our behavior and the behavior of others. It teaches us how to adapt to different situations, be better understood and improve our relationships.
Qualities of interpersonal relationships:
- Interpersonal relationships are one of the most important factors of successful cooperation.
- They are based on effective communication.
- Good communication requires us to adapt our behavior to be better understood.
- When we make ourselves better understood, we are more genuine (we do not pretend), which makes us more capable of making agreements.
DISC® resolves misunderstandings and prevents potential conflicts and creates better and more productive atmospheres in the company and working with customers.
DISC® allows us to recognize the qualities of ourselves and the person we are speaking with – by revealing two images of both:
- EXTERNAL IMPRESSION: image or impression a person displays on the outside in a specific situation.
- INTERNAL SELF: image in the same situation which shows the person’s “internal self” or internal source of that person’s energy.
Comparison of both images reveals the factor of stress.
The DISC® method has its roots in the times of Hippocrates. In its modern form it is used by more than 1,000,000 people each year and has more than 60,000,000 users.
When to use the DISC® method?
The DISC® method can be used in personal development, employment, management, coaching, team building, conflict management, sales training programs, call center operations. It helps us to plan for success, increase productivity, improve team cohesion and communication and increase employee retention.

»All parts were useful, especially how to recognize specific colors, how to communicate with an individual color and how to present our arguments.«
