What Does Everything DiSC® Mean?

Everything DiSC is an acronym used to describe the assessment’s four personality profiles to define employees and leaders who complete the assessment. At the end of the assessment, each participant is identified with traits from one of these four personality profiles and then taught how to emphasize their inherent strengths and address the leadership weaknesses that can be associated with their personality.

The four personalities are:

dominance
