Taking Flight! Master the DISC Styles and Transform Your Career, Your Relationships…Your Life
Presented by:
Merrick Rosenberg, Team Builders Plus
What if you held in your hand the instruction manual for dealing with your manager and coworkers? Imagine if this manual contained a secret code that could predict how people will behave in a wide range of situations…including how they will react to you? What if this code not only demystified why you click with some and clank with others, but also revealed the type of work environments where you are likely to thrive?
Such a framework exists through a simple four-style model of behavior known as DISC. This session teaches people about themselves and their coworkers in a way that has never been done before. Participants will learn about themselves and each other through four engaging characters: the Office Eagle, Office Parrot, Office Dove, and Office Owl. They will discover their own behavioral style, and appreciate how they can Take Flight with DISC!
