How the Thomas DISC test works

The DISC profile test provides an accurate insight into how people behave at work. Use it when recruiting, identify where to allocate your learning and development resources, and understand where you need to adjust your approach to avoid staff turnover and getting the best out of people through better management. 

Behaviour Background & theory

What is DISC theory?

The DISC model is an accurate theory used to understand human behaviours. It provides an increased level of self-awareness and awareness of others through a common language and framework of understanding and is split into four behavioural types:

  • D - Dominance (with description)
  • I - Influence/Inducement
  • S - Steadiness/Submission
  • C - Compliance

Most people show all four of these behaviour patterns, but in a work setting you'll display one or more of them consistently. This is because you develop a behavioural style which places particular emphasis on certain behaviours and less emphasis on others.  

Our team sat the DISC assessment, and we all found the results to be very accurate considering how few questions it asked. Using it to gain greater understanding and insight into candidates is invaluable when recruiting, and I can see it being an essential tool for managing a team as well.
