Wendii-

HA! A great one. We include, when we work with corporate clients, a "Sometimes we're all funny" sheet, which pokes fun at the various foibles of different profiles.

I think one is, when wallpapering a house, the High D says, "Come over and wallpaper my living room. Bring the supplies. I'll be busy elsewhere."

Classic!

Did you know there's a blog devoted to Disc? Here's a post devoted to Disc humor (not quite knee slapping, but still...)

As a High I, I am offended by this remark: "i has the paper and paste in the closet. It's on the to do list. Never gets around to doing it."

Offended because I think the operator of that blog has been spying on me... that is totally me! :roll:

Thanks for sharing the link. :D

Hey Guys,
I had a question about purchasing the Disc profiles.
If I want to administer this profile to all of my directs, would I need to repurchase it for each person?
I believe Vince Lombardi said self awareness is key to successful leadership.
Thanks for the help.
Mark

I believe you have to purchase a separate key for each profile to be completed. You may try sending a PM to Mike and/or Mark; I know others have asked similar questions about providing DISC to multiple users.

Thanks Julia,
It seems like it would be a good tool to use. I have taken similar profiles and actually found some things to be very much NOT like me. I am really curios to see the results and pass along to the team.

mhybers,

Julia is correct; you will need to purchase an "access code" for each person who wishes to take the DISC Profile. If you order multiple DISCs from the order page (http://www.manager-tools.com/purchase-the-disc-profile/), you will be sent a separate email with a unique access code for each DISC profile purchased. You would then distribute these to your folks.

Please do let me know if you have any more questions!

regards,
Mike
