Maxwell DISC
What this programme helps you work on.
Knowing a strength is useful when you can recognise where and how to apply it. The POWERDISC materials support discussion of behavioural strengths and development. Participants connect observations about their preferences with real responsibilities and consider how to contribute more deliberately alongside others.
Who it suits
People exploring their behavioural strengths.
The focus
Strengths, behavioural preferences and development.
Inside the programme
What you’ll explore.
These themes guide the learning. The depth and selection depend on the format and the needs you bring.
Consider the context
Explore when that approach is useful and when a different response may better serve the task or relationship.
Work with complementary preferences
Discuss what colleagues contribute and how your strengths can support rather than duplicate or crowd out their contribution.
Choose a development action
Identify one responsibility where you can use a strength deliberately and seek feedback on its effect.
From ideas to action
Put it into practice.
Select a strength to use more deliberately in your work.
An example to work through
Choose an upcoming task and identify a strength you want to use. Describe the behaviour you will practise and ask a colleague what would make your contribution most useful to them.
This is an example of local application. We adapt the discussion to your situation and agreed scope.
Your practical takeaways
What you’ll work towards.
- A strength connected to a specific work example.
- An understanding of where to adapt your usual approach.
- A deliberate application and a source of feedback.
The learning experience
How it works.
Facilitated learning combines explanation, discussion and reflection on participants’ own situations. Where the agreed format allows, you practise an application and decide what to try at work. Scope, duration and any follow-up are agreed around the group’s needs.
DISC describes behavioural preferences and supports discussion. It is not a clinical diagnosis or a complete judgement of ability or suitability for a role. Report inclusion and the debrief format are confirmed for the engagement.
