Greetings!

You've been a dedicated DiSC Profile user for some time and, of course, have grown to appreciate the applicability and accuracy of the information. If you keep on using the profile edition you're using now, you'll continue to see positive results.
 
BUT...I have to encourage you to try the newer versions of DiSC because the depth of knowledge about behaviors and their impact keeps getting clarified by DiSC profile upgrades.
 
What's the difference in the next level of DiSC?
 
The traditional D-i-S-C graph has become a dot on a circle of styles and we like it DiSC Circle 2- 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. Interpersonal relationships, how they complement and conflict with one another, are easier to explain and to understand.
 
We're also finding there's a lesser tendency to "button-hole" someone as a D, i, S or C - it's easier to see how many of us have overlapping styles and are really a blend of styles.
 
The result? A better grounding in behavioral styles, how one's own style may affect others AND valid tips on how to interact more effectively with others.

The "next level" profiles cover three populations:
1. Everything DiSCŪ Workplace
2. Everything DiSCŪ Management
3. Everything DiSCŪ Sales  
 
Each of these is one volume of the Everything DiSC Application Library.
 
Special Features with Each Volume

1) The AMAZING Everything DiSC Comparison Reports...These are new and certainly an elevation to the "next level" of learning!!!

They are 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 Everything DiSC Management Profile and a respondent from the Everything DiSC Workplace Profile can generate Comparison Reports!

Imagine the ensuing conversation - two people actually talking about their impressions of each other, why they may have some interpersonal issues and how to resolve them!!!!
 
Take a look at the sample reports of two colleagues - you'll immediately see the value in comparing the two and the basis it provides for them to improve their working relationship:

2) 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 DiSCŪ 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.

3) 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 DiSCŪ 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.
