ASSIGNMENT:
Create a 3 to no more than 5 page double-spaced paper [be sure to use subheadings to identify each section] in which you use the results of your DISC Survey. The content of your DISC paper should include, but is not limited to, answers to the following questions:
1. Describe your personal styles
Describe your strongest style(s) and your weakest style. Provide examples to illustrate how the strong styles characterize you (or, in the case of your weakest style, do not characterize you). If your profile is balanced, describe either how the four styles equally characterize you or how your styles change depending on circumstances.
1. Discuss how you developed your styles
Consider the possible effects of family, school, organizational memberships, and/or culture on the development of your self-reported styles. Discuss the factor that you think was most important in shaping your personal styles.
III. Assess the impact of your styles on your effectiveness
Discuss the impact of your styles in terms of two factors--such as interpersonal relations, group activities, individual or managerial performance.
1. Identify a target for change and a specific change strategy
Focus on a single style and a concrete, behavioral strategy for change.
If there are certain issues that you would prefer not to discuss, simply exclude them from your paper and focus on other styles, events, or factors.
