This DISC model examines the motivations for people's behavior along 4 unique dimensions or traits. It is good to know which tendency is predominant in any person is the key to understanding personality.

Dominant

D-people are direct and assertive. They think independently, are ambitious and take a quick and active approach to solving problems. They have a strong need to achieve and try to maintain a measure of authority and control over the environment in which they live and work. Other people find them determined and strong willed as D-people like to have things done their way.

Interpersonal

I-people are entertaining and social. They like to participate in groups and rely on their social skills as the primary means for getting things done. Highly extroverted, these people are considered by others to be friendly and outgoing. They have a consistent urge to meet and talk with other people. I-people are often considered to be emotional because they readily express their feelings and are generally more comfortable with emotions than others.

Steady

S-people are persistent and patient. They take a measured, stable approach to life and don't like surprises. They are accommodating and undemanding, often showing intense loyalty to those around them. S-people place a high value on sincerity; they habitually tell the truth and expect others to do the same. People tend to see them as deliberate and consistent in their approach to life, which can lead to the label of being predictable. S-people possess an unusual level of persistence and can maintain their focus and interest in something longer than most others can.

Conscientious

C-people are interested in precision and accuracy. They like structure and details and they focus intensely on the facts. They regard tradition and etiquette as highly important and will extend great effort to support them. C-people tend to use a systematic approach to their activities and will insist on the use of rules in order to manage or control their environments.
