Which Everything DiSC® assessment should I use?
Updated January 2020
Need a little help deciding which of the Everything DiSC assessments will work best for your training and development needs? This should make it a little easier to quickly see how they differ.
If in doubt, we always recommend Everything DiSC Workplace as the best way to introduce the concept of the differing styles, needs, and priorities of individuals. To address specific issues such as EQ or leadership, however, you can use one of the more specialized profiles and simply spend some time introducing the DiSC model. The profiles themselves will help do that, as will the facilitation kits available for the profiles.
Our Everything DiSC profiles are highlighted below:
- Workplace, our most popular and multi-purpose profile
- Productive Conflict, for understanding how to change your response to conflict
- Management, for improving management skills and flexibility
- Sales, learn to communicate more effectively with customers
- Work of Leaders, provides a model for becoming a more effective leader
- Agile EQ, learn how to adapt your responses to any situation
- 363 for Leaders, a more actionable 360 tool
