What’s inside
Slides
16 slides for the screen: goals and ground rules, a QR code for the test, the two axes and four styles, one slide per style, how to read a result, the exercises and team agreements.
Group workbook
An Excel file for 40 participants. Enter the counts from the paper test form or the percentages from the online result, and the workbook does the math: totals, each person’s profile and a group summary — how many people have each style and what to watch for.
Team map
A four-sector circle to print on A3 or A4: participants put a sticky note in their style’s sector, and the team sees right away which styles it has more of, which are missing and where friction is likely.
“How to work with me” cards
One card per style — what matters to the person, how best to agree on things with them and what gets in their way — plus blank cards for participants to fill in themselves.
Who it’s for
- HR and managers: getting a team to know each other, onboarding new hires, talking about friction without looking for someone to blame.
- Corporate trainers and L&D teams: a ready-made module for communication and teamwork programs.
- College and university instructors: a class on interpersonal communication, management or career development.
- Career counselors and coaches: a group session on strengths and work style.
How the session runs
- Introduction and ground rules: we talk about behavior at work, sharing is optional, no labels.
- Participants take the test — on their phones via a QR code or on the paper form.
- The four styles and how to read a result.
- “Four Corners” exercise: groups by style discuss what energizes them and how best to work with them.
- Team map: which styles there are more of, which are missing, where friction is likely.
- “How to work with me”: swapping cards in pairs (90-minute version).
- Team agreements: how we run meetings, assign tasks and give feedback.

Questions
Do I need experience or a certification to run the session?
No. The guide is written for facilitators running DISC for the first time: it spells out what to say and do at each step.
Do participants need to sign up or pay?
No. The test is free and requires no sign-up — online or on the paper form, which you can print from the “PDF test” page.
Can I run the session online?
Yes. The guide describes an online version: breakout rooms instead of room corners and a shared whiteboard instead of the paper map.
What if my group has more than 30 people?
Run the exercises in subgroups and do the team map by department. The group workbook holds 40 participants.
Do you see my participants’ results?
No. The group workbook runs on your computer and sends data nowhere. Participants take the online test on their own, with no sign-up.
