“This threshold was designed such that approximately one-third of respondents would receive an extra priority in their report. The example below shows an additional priority of enthusiasm for this D-style individual. Their DiSC map will include extra shading if their score on the priority is over a pre-set threshold. Some people will show more than three priorities. Not all people with the C style, for example, are the same. The priority scale of Enthusiasm measures only liveliness.” This provides a more nuanced feedback in the resulting profile.

For example, the i DiSC scale measures a sociable, lively disposition.

As the Everything DiSC Manual explains: “the priority scales measure much more narrow constructs. The priorities are an additional measurement unique to Everything DiSC. In our example from Everything DiSC Workplace, these are accuracy, challenge, and results. The shading also includes the three priorities closest to a person’s dot. The shading reinforces the message that we are all a blend of all four styles. Conversely, behaviors associated with the styles with little shading (being collaborative, offering support, seeking stability) will require more conscious effort. The shading around the dot provides a rough approximation of the person’s comfort zone. In the example below, this person with a D style will find behaviors such as focusing on results, welcoming a challenge, and being accurate will come easily. One person will be expected to show more pronounced introverted traits than the other.” Your shading We can have two introverted people that are located on the right side of the continuum, but one (who is more introverted) will be placed further to the right than the other person (who is less introverted). “By way of comparison, imagine a continuum that ranges from extrovert (on the left) to introvert (on the right). The style characteristics of someone with their dot near the outer edge will be much more pronounced than for someone whose dot is closer to the center of the circle.Īs explained in the Everything DiSC Manual: People whose dots fall toward the edge of the circle are said to be much more inclined toward their DiSC styles. If you look at the DiSC map for several people you’ll notice that not everyone’s dot is placed at the same distance from the center. For instance, an individual tested with a resulting dot located in the D quadrant will demonstrate more dominant behaviors and preferences than a person with another style, but will also, from time to time, show behaviors and preferences that are associated with the other three quadrants.” However, that doesn’t mean that a person can only exhibit that pattern. This person, therefore, is probably particularly outspoken, active, bold, and persuasive, as these qualities generally describe people who share both the i and D styles.Įverything DiSC defines a style as “a set of typical response patterns that are expected from a person. The example below shows a person who tends toward the i region, but also somewhat toward the D region. Your DiSC dotĮach person who takes an Everything DiSC assessment has their dot plotted on the Everything DiSC map. Everything DiSC ® is about more than just a single letter or two denoting your personality style. If you’re used to just talking about styles and preferences, Everything DiSC’s use of dots and priorities might be a little confusing.
