The Library You Need Within YOUR Library
 
August 21, 2009 
Greetings!

The library....source of amazing and seemingly infinite information! 
 
If you work in the education and development of your company's employees, wouldn't you appreciate a library full of the in's and out's of successful behaviors that result in better performance, greater sales, improved working relationships? 
 
That's what the complete Everything DiSC® Application Library does...you can now educate everyone in your business to better understand themselves and work more effectively with others through the three volumes of material:
 
1. Everything DiSC® Workplace
2. Everything DiSC® Management
3. Everything DiSC® Sales
 
 ED Library 3 volumes

Why is it called EVERYTHING DiSC®? Because these editions go beyond a description of behaviors...they link our preferred behaviors to our application in performance...improving interactions with co-workers, better reading of potential clients to result in a sale, delegating, motivating, developing employees.
 
DiSC becomes a common language for accomplishing daily business successfully.
 
 
Below learn about each volume, the incredible EPIC System for processing profiles, the special features the Application Library offers  to go beyond the profile AND the special pricing offers available now. 
Big News! Big Newsletter! 
WHAT COMES WITH MY LIBRARY?
 
Each volume in the library includes:
  • In-depth personalized online profiles
  • Complete facilitation materials - video (stand-alone AND embedded in the PowerPoint), PowerPoint slides and a fully-scripted Leader's Guide 
  • Flexible content that can be delivered in short segments or as day long workshops - by someone internally or by an external resource
Each volume is on a thumb disk - easy to transport, easy to share
 
Special Features in All Three Volumes

Everything DiSC Comparison Reports..Follow-up reports that can be created for any two participants to illustrate their similarities and differences. The research-validated 11-page Everything DiSC Comparison Report helps to build better relationships and makes DiSC training stick. And participants get unlimited access - at no additional charge.

 
Comparison Reports work for ALL Everything DiSC Application Library programs including Management, Sales and Workplace, allowing you to create reports for coworkers and for managers and their direct reports. This means a respondent to the ED Management Profile and a respondent from the ED Workplace Profile can generate Comparison Reports!

Everything DiSC Facilitator Report: Lets you build customized group reports using data from any Everything DiSC Application Library report. The report provides a composite of your group's DiSC® styles and information on how DiSC styles can impact your organization's culture. Includes the names and styles of each participant and detailed information on how each individual's DiSC style may affect the DiSC culture within the group or organization. Can be used across all Everything DiSC Application Library programs.

Everything DiSC Group Culture Report: Lets you build customized group reports using data from any Everything DiSC Application Library report. The report provides a composite of your group's DiSC® styles and information on how DiSC styles can impact your organization's culture. The report allows you to easily determine a group's DiSC culture, explore its advantages and disadvantages, discuss its effect on group members, and examine its influence on decision making and risk taking. Does not include participant names. Can be used across all Everything DiSC Application Library programs. 

Easily customizable - create and save a customized solution for every session to fit any timeframe, from one-hour to full-day. Change the name of the program if you'd like. You have the flexibility to call any session something more related to your existing curriculum and you can tailor the materials to reflect the new title. It's a strong framework from which to also customize the material to the uniqueness of your situation.  


Additionally, in all three volumes, the traditional D-i-S-C graph has become a dot on a circle of styles and we like it - a lot! The new approach to diagramming one's intensity in any of the behavioral styles is easier to understand, visualize and relate to. You'll find it's more effective to conduct training sessions focusing on how one person relates to another (and why).

And that's the Everything DiSC Application Library - we know it's a major innovation in learning about behavior styles and the importance of understanding them!  
 
To have your entire organization speaking the same language in terms of understanding their own behaviors, how they impact others and knowing how to adapt behaviors to IMPROVE and MAXIMIZE relationships is value beyond measure.
 
I've mentioned this before, but I really appreciate what this man says:
 
 "My experience with personality assessments convinces me that their value is in how executives (and managers - my italics) gain a greater understanding of why they do what they do and the impact their behavior has on other people," says Jeff Holst, a 35-year corporate HR veteran with Coopers Lybrand. "The 'ah ah' moment with assessments is when the learner says, 'Now I understand why I don't get the results I want.' " (Talent Management Magazine, June 2009)
 
So get the results you want and get them now with the right price - contact me directly to discuss your situation and how we can best assist you. 
 
Sincerely,
 
Bob Mann
