The DISC Assessment and Career Development

Strong personality differences can impact the workplace—and so can being aware of them. This course can make a difference in how you see those around you, as we discuss the importance of behavior patterns in the workplace. Many companies are hiring candidates who match their organizational culture, making it more important for us to understand the psychology of our own personalities, as well as how to be mindful of the personalities we work with. These lessons introduce the psychology of personality and one of the most frequently used assessments for measuring it, which is the DISC.

You’ll be able to see how companies use the DISC assessment to determine if a candidate is a good fit for the organization’s company culture. These lessons will explore how individuals can use the DISC when exploring their own career growth and development. You’ll understand the concept of human behavior and why it matters when your colleagues express themselves differently than you do. This course will also teach you how to see people’s actions in a nonjudgmental way, which can help us better understand different personality styles. If your work involves interacting with others, this course can help you to collaborate with a range of personalities, each with its own behavior patterns.
