What is DISC?

DISC is a non-judgmental behavior assessment tool based on four different personality traits – Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. We each have a unique combination of the four, but typically there are one or two traits that standout among the others. While they are often subconscious behaviors, becoming aware of these personality traits will allow you to better understand yourself and how you can interact with others.
