"The 'DISC' system worked great for improving our internal communication skills. I continually hear people using the skills they learned. I constantly refer to ‘DISC’ before having important discussions with co-workers. I have already used it to help in hiring."

K.L., President
Thompson Supply

“The DISC workshop was very successful at helping our employees to understand each other as well as give them a better understanding of themselves.  Our employees have also expressed their gratitude because the workshop helped them in relationships outside the workplace.”

S.K., Owner
King Physical Therapy & Wellness Center

“The profile that you did for me was so accurate!  I can see where this would be such a valuable tool to help Human Resources personnel in either hiring or developing their employees. It can help anyone who wants to analyze their behavior to find their strengths and weaknesses. In the H.R. field I have always believed that knowing the natural behavior of an employee can help you to find a position for that employee where he/she is happiest and where they will benefit your company the most. I hope to use the profile to correct some of my problem areas and therefore strengthen my characteristics in the work environment.”

K.J., Human Resources
TX. Dept. of Transportation

“Mr. Rooney presented a seminar for all of our employees on effective communications and achieving excellence in coworker relationships.  We have personnel that have stepped up to new levels of performance during and after his seminar.”

M.T., City Manager

Dynamic Communication™ People Smart Workshop

Reduce Employee Disengagement and Increase Effective Communication

Have you ever been mismanaged? What effect did it have on your personal productivity and the quality of your work? The mismanaged employee becomes disengaged, contributing very little to the success of their assignments. In many work environments, much of the employees’ human capital is spent on relationship issues, diverting their focus from excelling at work.

Disengaged employees tend to drag down other employees and customers. According to recent Gallop studies, the cost of employee disengagement to U.S. employers is a staggering $300 billion dollars annually! How much is disengagement costing your organization? Properly managed or engaged employees usually take fewer sick days and generate an average of 43% more revenue.

Mismanaged employees feel disempowered and not trusted. Comprehending how a person likes to interact with his/her environment and their communication preferences is the first step to gaining rapport and trust with an individual. Your effectiveness with people will increase dramatically when you have a good understanding of temperament.

In today’s world, you have to learn to work with people in a positive way to achieve your organizational goals. People Smart Tools offers the Dynamic Communication workshop training process designed for managers, supervisors, and team leaders. Behavior profiles (DISC assessments) are used to identify strengths, weaknesses and opportunities in workplace relationships. An increase in effective communication is noticed immediately after the training process is completed.

This workshop will help you become a more successful leader. Effective communication skills and an awareness of the differences in the way people communicate are essential to thriving relationships in the workplace. Learning the universal language of DISC will accelerate your influence and skill with people and deepen your understanding of human behavior.

When you understand the communication and relationship preferences of a person, and find a way to work with those preferences, you will be amazed at the transformation right before your eyes. What you once thought was inadequate in the employee, you now find to be very much what the job needed. The only thing that changed was a new paradigm of thought!

Why Learn About Behavior?

Learning about the ‘DISC’ four dimensions of normal behavior will help a person to better understand themselves and others, enhancing personal and professional relationships. An understanding of behavior/temperament will accomplish the following:

  • Increased Understanding of Self—Accept Self Without Condemnation
  • Increased Understanding of Others—Quit Trying to Change Them
  • Decreased Tension—Better Work Focus
  • More Effective Communication and Enhanced Relationships
  • A Rise in Productivity With More Collaboration

Immediate Results and Continuous Improvement

Employers begin to see positive changes immediately after the training process. People will realize that differences are good and can be used effectively to make an organization more successful. Attendees do not stop learning once the workshop is completed. Their Success Insights™ Report and in-depth workbook will allow them to continually learn about their behavior/temperament style and in turn improve their communication skills both personally and professionally. The benefits of this training process are endless.

Appreciating the behavioral needs of others creates win/win relationships. The DISC behavioral model is universally proven to provide applications for improvement in the following areas:

  • Coaching & Mentoring
  • Job Benchmarking & Employee Selection
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Retention Strategies for Key Employee
  • New Employee Orientation
  • Sharpened Management Skills

Continuing Education Units (CEU’s)

The Dynamic Communication™ workshop is approved by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET). Jim Rooney is professionally trained and certified by Target Training International™ to provide workshop attendees with Continuing Education Units (CEU’s). Jim’s certifications, CPBA (Certified Professional Behavior Analyst), CPVA (Certified Professional Values Analyst) and the Trimetrix™ coaching and employee selection designations require training updates before renewal every two years.

While DISC is one of the most common assessments used in the workplace, it does not reveal everything you need to know about a person. In fact, DISC only measures behavior style and communication tendencies, or “how” we act in our natural and adapted environments. It doesn’t tell us “why” we act in a certain way.

For almost every situation in training and development, knowing more than one facet of a person will help you provide better, more effective solutions. Combine a Dynamic Communication™ workshop with our Your Attitude is Showing™ workshop for a powerful one-two punch. Watch your revenues rise as disengaged employees become highly productive long-standing members of your team!
