DiSC profiles explained: i is for Influence
If
you've recently taken the DiSC profile, your report has a more
personalized explanation of what having an i style means for you
than what is presented here. But this can be a fun page to link to
and have others learn a bit more about you. Or you can use it to
better understand someone you work or live with.
People with the i style place an emphasis on shaping the
environment by influencing or persuading others.
A person with an i style
-
is motivated by social recognition, group
activities, and relationships.
-
prioritizes taking action, collaboration, and
expressing enthusiasm.
-
is described as convincing, magnetic,
enthusiastic, warm, trusting and optimistic.
-
may be limited by being impulsive and
disorganized and having lack of follow-through.
-
may fear loss of influence, disapproval and
being ignored.
-
values coaching and counseling, freedom of
expression and democratic relationships.
When communicating with the i style individual,
share your experiences, allow the i-Style person time to ask
questions and talk about themselves, focus on the positives, avoid
overloading them with details. DiSC Classic Patterns:
Promoter, Persuader, Counselor, Appraiser
