DISC analysis

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2017.11.13

I had one of those DISC personality profiles done through an affiliate of my night school teacher. This version had a number of features added by the company that runs it, so it came to an endless 57 pages.

One thing I found interesting was the set of skills (out of 25) where I rated weakest: sales, conflict resolution, and negotiation. The name of the course I'm taking is "Persuasion and Negotiation in Business". The other course I was considering was simply on conflict resolution. So that section resonated!

Another interesting bit was the wheel showing the various aspects of my motivation, the so-called "driving forces".

Apparently, I don't put much stock in intuition or structure or harmony.
