In 1958, Dr Thomas Hendrickson developed the Thomas Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) assessment based on Marston’s theory.
The DISC profile assessment is a quick but very effective way to understand an individual’s workplace behaviours, giving you a greater level of understanding of their capabilities and how they are likely to act.
This information can be used to answer a variety of questions such as:
- What motivates them?
- What are their strengths and limitations
- What is their preferred communication style
- How do they interact with their peers and team?
- How do they behave under pressure?
- Are they showing any frustrations in their current situation?
- What management or coaching style will get the best out of them?
