Ever ask, "Why do they do that?" or "Why can't we get along?"
"I'm 100% responsible for 50% of the problem."
Is it you or is it them? The truth is—it’s both of you, whether you want to hear it or not. Every person in a relationship plays a role in its success (or its struggle). And every relationship—personal or professional—thrives when both people take responsibility. The problem is, most of us only know how we think and behave, we don't always understand or take the time to see the world as others see it.
When you understand yourself, you begin to see others more clearly—who they are, what drives them, and how they communicate.
When you adapt to others’ styles, you break down barriers, build trust, and create meaningful, lasting change.
DISC: The Foundation of Success
The DISC assessment measures how a person does what they do by looking at four factors: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Compliance.
DISC creates a shared language around observable behavior, which in turn improves communication, engagement, and self-development.
- Your natural communication style—and how it’s perceived by others
- What triggers conflict between different styles
- How to adapt your approach to connect better and reduce tension
- Practical strategies to create lasting, positive change in your relationships
When you understand yourself, you can finally see others for who they truly are.
When you adapt to their style, you break down walls, build trust, and get results that last.
The 12 Driving Forces: Motivation in Action
The 12 Driving Forces is an assessment that measures why a person does what they do by defining and identifying their motivation. It measures the motivation (and strength) behind behaviors, using 6 different motivators.
Those motivators are:
- Knowledge
- Utility
- Surroundings
- Others
- Power
- Methodologies
These 6 motivators are each divided into two distinct ways of measuring each factor. Based on a continuum, these 12 drivers make up a person’s cluster of Driving Forces.
Are you getting the impact you want as a leader?
"We judge ourselves by our intentions, but others judge us by our impact."
Most leaders and managers want to be seen as supportive, effective, and inspiring—but intentions don’t always match reality. Sometimes the very behaviors meant to motivate can actually discourage, or the habits meant to build trust can unintentionally create distance.
That’s why it’s so important to understand how your style as a leader is truly landing with others.
The real impact specific behaviors have on your team and culture. These clear insights drive strategies and a roadmap to lead in the way you want to be experienced—resulting in better relationships, stronger performance, and lasting results.
