What is the DISC assessment method?
Decode and unleash your employees’ talents
DiSC® (Dominance, Influence, Stability and Conformity) is a behavioural analysis method that is perfectly applicable to the world of business and management. Its aim is to enable you, as a manager, to get to know your team better in order to optimise productivity, teamwork and communication.
This assessment tool, originally promoted by psychologist William Marston, is based on 4 colours. Each colour is linked to a behavioural profile, and determines the way in which individuals adapt to their environment:
01
Profile D for Dominant, associated with the colour red or green.
02
The I profile for Influential, which is the colour yellow or red.
03
The S profile for Stable, equivalent to the colour green or blue.
04
The C profile for Conscientious, equivalent to the colour blue or yellow.
What do the colours in the DiSC method correspond to?
The colours of the DiSC® method are not chosen at random! They simply correspond to an international coding system.
The Red (alternatively Green) or Dominant profile is always associated with strength and speed. This means that a dominant red personality is seen as eager to set goals, take on challenges and solve problems.
The colour yellow (order) is associated with the Influential profile: it’s the colour of sunshine, but also of joy. The Influential profile is considered to be a sociable, optimistic person who likes to communicate. They like teamwork, motivate others and very often have a wide social circle. The Yellow (or Red) Profile is less fond of solitude.
Green (or Blue) for the Stability profile: this colour is regularly associated with nature and calm. Individuals in this profile category are generally considered to be reliable, enjoying building relationships with their colleagues.
The colour blue (or yellow) for the Conscientiousness profile: blue is the colour of the sea, often associated with calm in the collective unconscious. The blue profile is a perfectionist who likes to have as much information as possible and to work alone. Logically, teamwork is more difficult for them to accept.
Attention however: no individual is just one colour! A personality can be made up of several characteristics to varying degrees.

Better understand, predict, comprehend and describe human behaviour
Why use DiSC for strategic management?
The DiSC® method is an ideal investment if you want to build more productive interpersonal relationships. Here are a few arguments that might convince you to invest in your teams:
1
The DiSC® method helps to improve teamwork: with new trends at work, DiSC enables you to communicate better and understand the other members of your team better.
2
The DiSC® method transforms every conflict into an opportunity: every disagreement becomes an exercise in positivity and productivity. Your teams are motivated by this new way of working, which increases the production of effective results.
3
The DiSC® method increases self-awareness: you gain a better understanding of the sources of your motivation or stress, the reasons why you react to disagreements and how to resolve problems.
4
The DiSC® method strengthens your sales skills and your commercial effectiveness: you better understand your customers’ preferences, which enables you to demonstrate new adaptation skills and build relationships.
5
The DiSC® method enables you, as a manager, to be more effective: once you have a better understanding of the preferences and profiles of each of your employees, you will be more effective with your teams.
6
The DiSC® method describes human behaviour in a simple, non-judgemental way: it is not an IQ test, or even an aptitude or mental health test. The DiSC tool does not judge, it simply describes human behaviour when faced with multiple situations (stress, challenges, crises, procedures, etc.).
How useful is it to know your own profile and that of your counterparts?
As you can see, the DiSC® method enables you to develop a perfect understanding of your own profile as a manager. But it’s also an excellent tool for discovering the profile of your colleagues and capitalising on this new perspective. In other words, you gain a fairer and more objective appreciation of the differences between yourself and others.
- You develop internal talent more quickly and effectively.
- You simplify conflict management and relationship problems.
- You build more effective internal communication, both written and verbal.
- You can systematically consider the composition of your teams according to the context.
- You can distribute tasks more effectively according to type, objective, needs and constraints.
