Although the massive transformation in work environments over the last year and a half should have made for better work/life balance in theory, that’s not exactly how it has played out.

Whether it is a full-on return to the office, a hybrid approach, or something entirely different, these constant changes, paired alongside the extreme stress of the last year+, have caused many people to feel a little out of balance.

And as you can imagine, having a bunch of employees who feel as though their work/life balance is off means that your organization is likely suffering the consequences.

It’s true that Everything DiSC has the power to be a culture catalyst by starting each learner on the path from personalized insights to real behavior change. But achieving this powerful impact requires the appropriate use of DiSC in the workplace.

While DiSC is a tool that supports a variety of social and emotional contexts in the workplace, it’s possible to misuse the tool. Here are some of the biggest mistakes:
– Arguably the most-common misuse of DiSC is “pigeonholing” a person based on their DiSC style. Pigeonholing happens when a person’s abilities are limited or dismissed based on their DiSC style. This results in unfair stereotypes or generalizations. For example, “All C-styles get too bogged down in the details to see the big picture.”
– Using DiSC as an excuse for poor behavior, and a reason not to adapt! Unfortunately, this action often winds up stunting development and encouraging stereotypes, which is the antithesis of what Everything DiSC stands for.

The reality is that the behavior of people with the D, i, S, or C style does not all look the same across the board. There is a lot of variation, even within one DiSC style. That’s why it’s so important to use DiSC as a dialog tool to better understand how your DiSC style influences (or doesn’t influence) the way you work. #DontEncourageStereotypes

Now, let’s talk about DiSC DO’S. Do:

• Apply a framework for understanding behavioral tendencies.
• Use as a conversation catalyst to get to know, adapt to, and value others.
• Instill a common language in an organization.

Authorized Partners for DiSC solutions, like us, are here to help you leverage the tool correctly, so you and your organization can get the most out of your experience!

“Agility” is more than a buzzword in the workplace today; it’s a requirement. The need for agile organizations continues to increase. But how do organizations meet this rising need?

The answer starts with developing the emotional intelligence of your workforce. Perhaps you’ve even begun to do this already, through more human-focused hiring and flattening the hierarchies. But here’s something else to consider – do your people have the tools they need to cope with whatever comes next, logistically and emotionally? As you build your agile workplace, do you know what you’re asking of your team?

Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ is designed to develop the EQ necessary to support a culture of agility. Contact us for your copy of Agility Unlocked as well as info on upcoming DiSC trainings.
