8 DISC Reports

The Improved Employees DISC Profiling system produces 8 targeted reports to give you more information ahead of interview, help you produce your short-list and help you coach and improve your employees.

Below you’ll find a summary of each of the report types available in our DISC profiling system along with example reports in PDF format based on a fictitious job applicant called ‘Penelope Pitstop’. Penelope Pitstop is a friendly, yet detailed, individual for the sake of our example.

Overview of Our Example Candidate

Here is an excerpt from one of the reports to give you a flavour of the kind of detail that is produced from our DISC profiling system.

ACCURATE, PRECISE AND TECHNICALLY-ORIENTATED

Miss Pitstop is accurate, exact and technically-motivated. She can focus on facts/procedures and data on a range of topics. Miss Pitstop possesses the capacity to take in and convey information, but the latter will tend to be rather factual. Though detail-motivated, she is not especially patient or well-organised and can grow bored and irritated if tasks are of a routine or repetitive nature. Miss Pitstop by nature is not aggressive and has an inherent social requirement. This can have the consequence of her becoming overly concerned with trying to please others and so for her to be seen by others as accurate. Not especially authoritative, Miss Pitstop should not be pressurised into a situation whereby she will have to execute unpopular decisions.

By nature Miss Pitstop is quite amiable, gregarious and social and is capable of communicating with people at almost all levels. Usually tactful and poised in nearly all situations. Miss Pitstop possesses proficient self-promotion abilities. In an attempt to divert trouble/hassle, she will become obsessively concerned with attention to detail which could result in her being perceived as defensive. Miss Pitstop could be inclined towards verbal creativity and on occasions she could be inclined to become too talkative. Whilst adapting to change does not particularly concern her, there is a desire to know why changes are being implemented. Miss Pitstop can be verbally creative and although capable of producing new ideas may not always execute them.

That’s a sample from page one of the detailed report for Penelope Pitstop. There are over 30 pages of content per respondent in total.
