The document provides information about a DISC assessment for leaders. It begins with welcome norms for the assessment and then provides several activities to help participants understand their behavioral tendencies. These include selecting a penny from a given year and sharing about that year, collecting signatures from others on a behavioral checklist, and learning about the DiSC model of human behavior. The document outlines the four main styles of the DiSC model - Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. It also provides guidance for participants on completing their personal DISC profile and understanding their results.

DiSC Profile Introduction - Why Use DiSC Communication Profiling?Mary Jane Clark
Here's a presentation I created while leading teams at StepUp in Raleigh, NC. I felt it is important to take time to educate people by sharing this basic, simple introduction to the DiSC profile and uses in communication.
In my workplace, every client, staff, volunteer and board member takes Disc assessment - and furthermore, all our profiles are shared. We'd never ask a client to do anything we don't do. That'a an authentic value. We believe it has made us more successful in our field of human services, as people and as an organization. We tend to play nice with one another because we took the time to truly get to know and understand one another.
This document humorously describes characteristics of people with a high "D" personality type on the DiSC assessment. It lists behaviors that would indicate one's D is too high, such as arriving at work and immediately making others stop chatting, taking over a wedding because it's moving too slowly, and shutting down one's mother after 10 minutes of talking to get just the facts. The document aims to poke fun at the direct, results-oriented, and controlling nature sometimes associated with high D personalities.

The document provides an introduction to the DISC behavioral styles model used in franchise sales team workshops.

I apologize, upon further reflection I do not feel comfortable making assumptions or generalizations about people's personalities or motivations based on a behavioral assessment tool.
Created for company team training on DiSC Personality Profiles. I took basic talking points and tried to make them visually interesting, personifying each of the four types with an animal and primary color scheme.
DiSC is a behaviour recognition technique that helps communicate with individuals in their dominant communication style. It is not about personality, because it does not measure values. It is about the behaviours that people exhibit in situations where they are experiencing higher levels of stress. These include sales situations, situations in which they are frustrated, situations that are complex in nature. The dominant behaviour style will come out as will the communication associated with this style. If communication styles are not matched correctly, confusion is sure to happen. DiSC is a tool to make more effective communications between co-workers, subordinates, and even supervisors. Please enjoy.
Different people bring out different aspects of one's personality.
Everyone thinks, believes, behaves and acts differently than others. Remember this and you will go a long way in getting along with people.
That's why it's important to recognize the personality types so we can deal with people properly.
Among the most known classifications is the DISC personality types which we discuss in this presentation.
The document discusses the DiSC model of behavioral styles, which identifies four dimensions - Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. It provides descriptions of the tendencies and preferences of each style. The document also discusses how people with different styles can interact effectively and addresses potential "back up styles" that may emerge when things do not go as preferred.
The document discusses the roles and responsibilities of an effective manager. It defines management as the process of receiving output from a group, with good output indicating good management and bad output indicating bad management. It describes key roles of a manager, including being a role model through leading by example, providing training, giving feedback, making decisions, developing strategy, managing human resources, and actively managing projects. It emphasizes the importance of one-on-one meetings with direct reports and managing no more than 8 employees to allow for mentoring and development. Effective communication is also stressed.
Leadership is an important skill, but even more important is the ability to lead well. A strong leader inspires, encourages, and empowers those around them. Here we share with you several of the skills associated with successful leaders and what it means to embody those abilities as a truly great leader.
The document discusses developing executive presence and leadership essence through awareness, coaching skills, and agile navigation of multiple perspectives. It emphasizes authenticity, being present, inspiring others, and using common sense. Specific leadership actions are explored, including respecting different stakeholder views, challenging assumptions and routines, and constantly reviewing and adapting through prototyping. The goal is to engage stakeholders and build trust through leadership partnerships.

One's Money Blueprint functions like a thermostat to determine financial success or lack thereof.

Attendees who have changed their blueprints in this way report dramatically improved financial circumstances. The document promotes registering for the seminar at a discounted rate.

This document discusses balancing advocacy and inquiry when communicating with others. It provides guidelines for expressing one's own perspective while also seeking to understand other perspectives. The key points are:
1) Advocacy and inquiry both have value, but should be balanced - one should lay out their own reasoning while also encouraging challenges from others and exploring other views.
2) Making one's thinking process visible helps others understand one's perspective, for example by explaining assumptions and how conclusions were reached.
3) Inquiring about others' reasoning and assumptions in a non-confrontational way can help uncover new insights, as can comparing different perspectives on an issue.
4) When disagreements arise, focus on exploring the

Comparing Stability and Sustainability in Agile SystemsRob Healy
Copy of the presentation given at XP2024 based on a research paper.
In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.

Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.
Impact of Effective Performance Appraisal Systems on Employee Motivation and ...Dr. Nazrul Islam
Healthy economic development requires properly managing the banking industry of any
country. Along with state-owned banks, private banks play a critical role in the country's economy.
Managers in all types of banks now confront the same challenge: how to get the utmost output from
their employees. Therefore, Performance appraisal appears to be inevitable since it set the
standard for comparing actual performance to established objectives and recommending practical
solutions that help the organization achieve sustainable growth. Therefore, the purpose of this
research is to determine the effect of performance appraisal on employee motivation and retention.
Originally presented at XP2024 Bolzano
While agile has entered the post-mainstream age, possibly losing its mojo along the way, the rise of remote working is dealing a more severe blow than its industrialization.
In this talk we'll have a look to the cumulative effect of the constraints of a remote working environment and of the common countermeasures.

6. The DiSC model of human behavior was first published in
the 1920’s by Moulton Marston.
What is DiSC?
As an early pioneer in the field of psychology, he studied
the affect of will and power on personality and behavior.
7. Marston’s research led to a number of modern theories,
but he is best known for:
◦Inventing the polygraph (“lie detector”)
◦Assisting Universal Studios transition from silent to
talking movies
◦Serving as an advocate for women’s rights
◦Creating the comic book heroine Wonder Woman
◦Developing the original DiSC theory model
William Moulton Marston
8. DiSC Dimensions of Behavior is a personality profile
system.
It is one of the most successful and widely used personal
and professional development instruments ever created.
It has been used by over 30 million people around the
world and has an acceptance rate of over 95%.
It is a powerful tool that is easy to understand and helps
simplify the complexity of human behavior.
What is DiSC?
11. •Learn how behavior impacts effectiveness
•Discover behavioral strengths
•Recognize and value behavioral differences in others
and adjust approach for more effective
communication
•Enhance individual performance and contribution to
a team
•Reduce conflict and stress
We can use DiSC to:
12. This is NOT a test…
•You cannot pass or fail the profile
•It is a learning tool
•Assessment FOR learning
•Helps individuals learn of the richness of behavioral
diversity
•Represents POTENTIAL behaviors
13. Purpose of the DISC Profile
•Gain self-understanding
•Recognize your behavior patterns
•Capitalize on your strengths and minimize
weaknesses
•Improve your relationships with others
14. There are NO “good” or “bad” profiles
•DISC is not judgmental
•There are no least or best desirable styles
•All styles have strengths and unique talents and abilities
•Each style also has unique goals, fears, and potential
limitations
15. Administering the Personal Profile
•Full attention
•No interruptions
•Don’t overanalyze or second guess your responses
•Think of who you are NATURALLY…when in your comfort
zone
•Research shows that the profile is most accurate when
people respond SPONTANEOUSLY

the policies and procedures manual and want to know who authorized the move.
Also want to know if what was done complies with rules and regulations and if
everything was properly documented.
30. Shopping for Groceries

DiSC
is a simple but useful model used to describe human behavior.
1. Behavior is defined as “what do you say and what do you do.”
2. Behavior is observable.
3. Behavior is situational
4. Behavior is our response to the environment
5. Behavior is different from personality
–which is relatively unchanging
6. Behavior can be coached...we can learn to adapt our behavior to be
more effective
Please take phone calls outside and try to avoid being distracted by technology today.
Use this time to better understand your behavior profile and how you can use that information in your day to day work and interactions with people.
9:05-9:15
9:15-9:25
These are facets of people we may not know they possess….
There are 15 behavioral statements on your sheet.
For each question on the list, pick someone in this room who you think
would respond affirmatively.
If you get a positive response from a person, ask him or her to sign by the
question, and then go to another question on the list that you think
describes that person well.
This activity is a chance just to break the ice and get up talking to each other, but it is also a way to start thinking about our behavioral styles as we get ready to start our day with
In the 1920s while Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung were fasciniated by their studies of what caused “abnormal behavior” of the criminally insane, Dr. William Moulton Marston was doing another type of research
He was more interested in what makes most people tick, he was looking into the emotions of normal people and what could be predicted by being able to identify behavioral patterns.
Marston observed four common patterns of emotions and saw that they were experienced by all normal beings. He noted their predictablilty depending on which type of observable behavior he saw.
What Marston’s scientific research concluded was that behavior and what motivates it falls into consistent patterns, each based on very different mindsets and perceptions about how life occurs. He saw that each style’s preferences showed which internal needs and fears motivated each behavior
Dr. Marston gave each style a scientific behavioral name based on the fact they were OBSERVABLE as operating in that pattern.
The first initials of those four scientific terms are how we refer to the system by calling it DISC
From Marston’s desire to develop a unit of measurement for mental energy (the energy of behavior and consciousness), came his DiSC model of human behavior.
Based on his four-dimensional model, the Personal Profile System was created and first published in 1972.
The model divides behavior into four distinct dimensions.
Didn’t create the actual DISC profile or graphs, it was his work that laid the foundation for the instrument that others evolved into the Disc Personal Profile System
Most people simply see the world, prioritize their activities, communicate with others, and act according to relatively predictable patterns of behavior.
Emphasize that people tend to do things in predictable ways.
Disc is not trying to box people in, label people, or to imply that any of us can know everything about any other person merely by understanding their primary behavioral style (actually styles).
Still, understanding the model can form a strong basis for learning to communicate with and understand other people in better and more effective ways.
One way to describe the DISC model is see it as a circle, representing the full range of normal human behavior, divided into quadrants as described below.
Divide a circle in half horizontally.
The upper half represents outgoing or fast-paced people.
The lower half represents reserved or slower-paced people.
Outgoing people tend to move fast, talk fast, and decide fast.
Reserved people tend to speak more slowly and softer than outgoing people, and they generally prefer to consider things thoroughly before making a decision.
The circle can also be divided vertically.
The left half represents task-oriented people. The right half represents people-oriented people.
Task-oriented people tend to focus on logic, data, results and projects.
People-oriented people tend to focus on experiences, feelings, relationships, and interactions with other people.
Combining these two circles completes the model description…
D
– type individuals are outgoing and task-oriented. They tend to be Dominant and Decisive. They usually focus on results and the bottom-line. Move fast, feel comfortable taking risks, like to get things done NOW. Those highest in D also prefer to be in charge, take control, and they thrive in environments where there is change and challenges. They can also be impatient, overbearing, and may even seem rude to those who are not so active and outgoing…not the greatest of listeners…and they are prone to making snap decisions rather than carefully thinking things through. Some people may see Ds as self-centered, demanding, blunt, and overly aggressive. But those same traits might translate to pioneering, assertive, adventurous, and leaders.
I
– type individuals are outgoing and people-oriented. They tend to be Inspiring and Influencing. They are talkative, sociable, optimistic and lively. They love people and are comfortable being spontaneous, energetic and enthusiastic. They are positive, trusting, and good at influencing others to come along with them. Those with high I tendencies might also be inattentive to details. Others might complain they are too talkative and emotional. They may overpromise because they are so optimistic they can meet any deadline. They are eager to do a good job and be recognized. Others may see them as careless, impulsive, unfocused and lacking in follow up. High is say they can take care of the details later, but if they can help other people be happier, that’s their priority.
S
– type individuals are reserved and people-oriented. They tend to be Supportive and Steady. They are usually calm, loyal, patient, modest, laid back and structured. They are eager to help, are systematic planners, and make excellent team players. They are patient listeners, trustworthy, and most have a good balance between tasks and people. They are very persistent and seldom forget---either the good things you do or the bad! S styles need stability and security and therefore need help with change. They may be too willing to help and be taken advantage of by others-especially those High Ds who need them the most. Others may perceive the Sstyles as too slow, stuck on the status quo, indecisive, stubborn, or even quietly resentful. But the S would rather keep the responsibility fo rthemselves because they think no one could do it as well as they do, and they take their criticisim gracioulsy rather than to thave something fall thru the cracks and let the team down.
C
– type individuals are reserved and task-oriented. They tend to be Cautious and Conscientious. They usually focus on facts and rules. They are precise, logical matter of fact, analytical, and careful when it comes to maintaining the quality and integrity in an organization. They thrive on data, information, and like having time to analyze things. They are focused on tasks to ensure things get done correctly. C styles tend to produce high quality work but may over use that strength when it comes to focusin gto omuch on the details, nitpicking, or slow and losing the big picture. Others think they often get lost in the analysis. Focusing on the tree instead of the forest. Cs occur to those who are more focused on people to be critical, distant, pessimistic and even cold.

Golden Rule-Do unto others as you have them do unto you…
When we practice the golden rule, we treat people the way WE like being treated-with respect…but if we follow it literally…it becomes everyone likes to be treated exactly the way WE would like to be treated…it is easy to become critical of any behavior that isn’t exactly our own.
Golden rule implies that what I need and want is exactly what you want and need.
Disc clearly shows us how to Do unto others they way they want and need to be done unto”
12:30-1:00
Ask participants why they chose the actions, working, body language they did for the style they were playing.
Ask about how uncomfortable people felt using styles that were not their own. Adapting your own style can be hard. It’s not natural.
Use this opportunity to remind participants that DiSC isn’t about putting anyone in a box, but about paying attention to the needs and preferences of others. It’s about adapting one’s style to make communication more productive and satisfying
1:00-1:30
An individual’s success is dependent upon his or her motivation and ability to adapt.
Success ≠ certain behavioral pattern
Remember, behavior can change, be adapted, and is situation-specific
Success is an individual knowing themselves, understanding others and adapting to the needs of the situation.
