The ABCS of DISC

The leadership/diagnostic test that we conducted in class was somewhat accurate. It did describe myself pretty well. The test showed that I was an "I" representing influence. The emphasis is on shaping the environment by influencing or persuading others which I beleive is pretty accurate description for me. I like generating enthusiasm, entertaining people, and keeping people awake. I do wish I was more of a "C", conscientiousness, working conscientiously within existing circumstances to ensure quality and accuracy. I lack concentration and paying attention to detail. I do feel it is helpful to know a person's management "type" to better understand where they are ocming from and what kind of person they are. It helps to know how the person usually acts and what he or she likes and dislikes. I think a test like this can help for personal interactions such as dating because you can find people with similar management types as youself and that will have you sharing a lot of things in common. I think it increases the chance the indivuals get along and become more serious.
