DISC is a simple, practical, easy to remember and universally applicable model. It focuses on individual patterns of
external, observable behaviors and measures the intensity of characteristics using scales of directness and openness
for each of the four styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientious.
Harmonizers bring a remarkable ability to be strong, active listeners. They help everyone to feel included. They are
well organized and deliver effective results for themselves and those around them. Harmonizers are quite good at
taking on and helping with tasks when others struggle. Some might say they're the 'glue' that holds people together.
They tend to dislike conflict and may avoid connections with individuals they perceive as aggressive.
• Personal direction: Wants to be a proactive member of any group and supportive by nature
• Strengths offered: High team or group orientation, thinking 'we're all in this together'
• General characteristics: Active and engaging listener to others who will do what they can to be sure
others are included
• Getting along with others: Likes to be included in activities, proactive problem solving, and sharing
successes
• When stressed: Will try inspirational methods to bring people together, and enlist support from others
• Keep in mind: May avoid confrontation or not share their thoughts without prompting and a safe
environment; encourage them to verbalize concerns and observations
• Additional notes: Great listener, gives attention to goals, maintains focus, especially for the good of all,
but may avoid conflict-producing situations
Below are some key behavioral insights to keep in mind and share with others to strengthen your relationships.
You persuade others by offering empathy, understanding, and friendship. This approach allows you to build trust,
credibility, and rapport with your audience through your sincere desire to understand their needs. To that point,
Andres, you may hesitate to try a hard-sell approach on some issues.
You tend to be very service-orientated, even as a leader. You are often willing to jump into a project, giving
appropriate focus even to day-to-day minutia, without complaining or assigning the dirty work to others. Those who
report to you will respect the fact that you do not consider yourself "above" the less important tasks.
Your response pattern indicates that you are an empathic individual with a high degree of sincerity in the things you
do and say. You tend to follow through on projects, always doing your homework prior to a meeting or event. You are
prepared, and others will notice that.
You have excellent listening skills and are perceived as a person with an active interest in the opinions of others. Your
listening style is natural and genuine, and you may frequently find yourself a "sounding board" for team members
aware of your ability to listen.
You are ready, willing, and able to help others become more effective and successful. People who score like you tend
not to carry hidden agendas and believe that individual success is tied to the results of the team.
Andres, your response pattern shows that you are able to appropriately handle both the human side and the task
side of projects. This strength that can be of great value in a variety of situations. Your patience, coupled with your
"people skills," may make you a welcome empathetic presence to your peers.
Aesthetic - Strong desire and need to achieve equilibrium between the world around us and ourselves (within) while
creating a sustainable work/life balance between the two. Creative, imaginative, arty, mystical and expressive, this style may
redefine or resist real world approaches to current challenges.
Based on your Motivators assessment Aesthetic score: You will likely possess an “inner awareness” and will desire to
understand the moods, affections, and values of yourself and others.
• You prefer an enjoyable and meaningful work environment that makes your soul feel inspired.
• You will really appreciate things and places purely for their intrinsic value rather than any status reasons.

ventures, personal resources, and focused energy. The preferred approach of this motivator is both a personal and a
professional one with a focus on ultimate outcomes.

will rely solely on what you already know.

• You might know something and not know why you know it.
• You are probably pragmatic and won't care if you don't know the details.
"Do as I say"
Since Dominant ‘D’ Styles need to have control, they like to take the lead in both business and social settings. As
natural renegades, they want to satisfy their need for autonomy. They want things done their way or no way at all.
These assertive types tend to appear cool, independent, and competitive. They opt for measurable results, including
their own personal worth, as determined by individual track records. Of all the types, they like and initiate changes
the most. We symbolize this personality type with a lion--a leader, an authority. At least, they may, at least, have the
inner desires to be #1, the star, or the chief.
Less positive Dominant ‘D’ Style components include stubbornness, impatience, and toughness. Naturally preferring
to take control of others, they may have a low tolerance for the feelings, attitudes, and "inadequacies" of co-workers,
subordinates, friends, families, and romantic interests.
Their natural weaknesses are too much involvement, impatience, being alone, and short attention spans. This causes
them to become easily bored. When a little data comes in, Interacting ‘I’ Styles tend to make sweeping
generalizations. They may not check everything out, assuming someone else will do it or procrastinating because
redoing something just isn't exciting enough. When Interacting ‘I’ Styles feel they don't have enough stimulation and
involvement, they get bored and look for something new again. . .and again. . .and again. When taken to an extreme,
their behaviors can be seen as superficial, haphazard, erratic, and overly emotional.
They strive for security. Their goal is to maintain the stability they prefer in a more constant environment. To Steady
‘S’ Styles, while the unknown may be an intriguing concept, they prefer to stick with what they already know and
have experienced. "Risk" is an ugly word to them. They favor more measured actions, like keeping things as they
have been and are, even if the present situation happens to be unpleasant due to their fear of change and
disorganization. Consequently, any disruption in their routine patterns can cause distress in them. A general worry is
that the unknown may be even more unpleasant than the present. They need to think and plan for changes. Finding
the elements of sameness within those changes can help minimize their stress to cope with such demands.
Take it slow
Steady ‘S’ Styles yearn for more tranquility and security in their lives than the other three types. They often act
pleasant and cooperative, but seldom incorporate emotional extremes such as rage and euphoria in their behavioral
repertoire. Unlike Interacting ‘I’ Styles, Steady ‘S’ Styles usually experience less dramatic or frequently-occurring
peaks and valleys to their more moderate emotional state. This reflects their natural need for composure, stability,
and balance.
Conscientious ‘C’ Styles concentrate on making decisions in both logical and cautious ways to ensure that they take
the best available action.
Think deeply
Due to compliance to their own personal standards, they demand a lot from themselves and others and may
succumb to overly critical tendencies. But Conscientious ‘C’ Styles often keep their criticisms to themselves,
hesitating to tell people what they think is deficient. They typically share information, both positive and negative,
only on a "need to know" basis when they are assured that there will be no negative consequences for themselves.
When Conscientious ‘C’ Styles quietly hold their ground, they do so as a direct result of their proven knowledge of
facts and details or their evaluation that others will tend to react less assertively. So, they can be assertive when they
perceive they're in control of a relationship or their environment. Having determined the specific risks, margins of
error, and other variables which significantly influence the desired results, they will take action.
