Personal Strengths Profile DISC 21-Page Report

Looks to me like your adaptive style is to turn an attention whore switch on.

Whenever there is a problem, I want it talked out. I hate lingering issues.

 

[rav3n]

There's an INFJ who scored D= 90.
Don't mess with her.

Did you notice that this was her natural D, where her adaptive D scored 25? This was really unusual considering her MBTI type.

Nice, me and my wife did this.. both got extreme scores on economical/theorizing. Our DISC results were quite different and gave a lot to talk about.

Your scores on all three charts trend (actual scores differ) almost identically to mine, except for a reversal between Individualistic and Political.

 

[Eric B]

Natural, Eric.

Night is natural high I and C. I hate to burst your little MBTI-loving bubble but he is not ESFJ, and Proteanmix and I are not EXTPs.
I made this thead for DISC, not MBTI. What part of that don't you get? DISC is spelled D-I-S-C. MBTI is spelled M-B-T-I.

Doesn't matter. If there's some correlation between the concepts, then we will see some matches as we can see. Not perfect ones always, but still, there is a definite pattern.

And it's actually not MBTI I favor, but rather the humor temperaments, which are embodied on two levels in MBTI, and basically renamed in DISC.

Was Night always INTP? (Don't remember). ISTP would fit the same mix in reverse. I know Protean used to wear INFJ, but now it is down. And I don't know what type you consider yourself, because you haven't displayed one for some time. Didn't you once have ENTJ? That would fit the D part of it.

Doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter to you.

C- 46

Adaptive-

D- 10
I- 25
S- 77
C- 53

Values-

High Aesthetic
Very much prefers form, harmony, and balance. Likely a strong advocate for
green initiatives and protecting personal time and space.

Very Low Economic
May try to help meet customers' needs (internal and external) before his own.

Average Individualistic
Not an extremist, and able to balance the needs of both others and self.

Average Political
Flexible, able to take or leave the power or clout that comes with the job title
or assignment.

Very High Altruistic
A very high sincerity-factor, and a high empathy for others' needs.

Average Regulatory
Able to balance and understand the need to have structure and order, but not paralyzed without it.

High Theoretical
High interest level in understanding all aspects of a situation, or subject.

Oh, I'm almost you reversed! You got S high, IC average and D low, I've got low what you got high. (Except for high or very high theory on both of us.)

Your average Values are average with me, and we got our highs switch to lows and the other way.

Oh and you are my opposite MBTI type as well, judging by individual letters!

Your scores on all three charts trend (actual scores differ) almost identically to mine, except for a reversal between Individualistic and Political.

Seems like that MBTI and DISC reveal much the same kinds of patterns, except that my DISC seems to have a better test-retest reliability. Needless to say, I'm enthusiastic that a good DISC test is now on the web!

 

[OrangeAppled]

This is really weird....I test high C (cautiousness), which is all about rules & order & structure - hahaha! I'm soooo not structured & I detest rules & static routine.... It also seems to directly contradict my values report, which says I do best in environments which allow me to be creative and independent.... All I know is, at my last job, I could dress however I wanted, show up 10 minutes late, take frequent coffee breaks, and play loud music while I worked, with absolutely no supervision & little direction, and that's exactly how I liked it.

Values:
very high aesthetic 75
low economic 30
very high individualistic 90
low political 23
average altruistic 43
very low regulatory 13
very high theoretical 80

I relate most to the aesthetic & individualistic, then the theoretical.

Natural style:
D 81
I 21
S 46
C 99

Adaptive style
D 42
I 10
S 25
C 91

It's funny, cuz I relate to both high & low C traits - I'm both a perfectionist & kind of quietly rebellious & very independent. It's very true that when under observation I am less interactive, stable & decisive. It makes me nervous to be observed.

 

[BlackCat]

Oh, I'm almost you reversed! You got S high, IC average and D low, I've got low what you got high. (Except for high or very high theory on both of us.)

Your average Values are average with me, and we got our highs switch to lows and the other way.

Oh and you are my opposite MBTI type as well, judging by individual letters!

Yeah I noticed that with the NTJs and SFPs that took this (and a few other good tests posted by Jaguar). We scored almost opposite on a lot of things.

One interesting thing about the average things is that is still something that we are similar on, so it's hard to say that we're truly opposites. But yeah. It's pretty interesting to say the least!

I thought this link was helpful on that. Know what you're saying about "following rules". I think you're the "creative type" according to other pattern descriptions I've seen. C seems to be about more than following rules or structure.

DISC C Personality Type

Yeah, a lot of that rings true. I'm definitely about high quality & getting it right the first time. In work situations, I'm a "let's get down to business" person. Schmoozing is not my strength... I am much better with change than this implies though. I suppose that's where the other profiles come in...

 

[Aleksei]

spectrum. The comments below highlight some of the traits
specific to just your unique score.
• You always prefer to be in control, which can make you
reluctant to delegate sufficiently.
• You can miss important details because you were too
focused on the big picture.
• You are very resourceful and can adapt quickly and
easily.
• Your decision-making style is a rapid and straightforward
one.
• You would rather focus on the big picture, not the details
which you can view as minutia.
• You are adventuresome in trying new ideas and
innovations.

Your score shows a moderately high score on the 'I'
spectrum. The comments below highlight some of the traits
specific to just your unique score.
• You prefer to deal with people and get results with and
through them rather than by yourself.
• You make an effective coach or counselor for others on
the team.
• You are talkative and express your opinions freely.
• You prefer an environment with plenty of people contact.
• You tend to be always ready to converse with a group,
even with people you've just met.
• You tend to naturally trust others and their ideas.

Your score shows a very high score on the 'S' spectrum.
The comments below highlight some of the traits specific
to just your unique score.
• You're not great at letting things go (e.g., original
decisions, long held beliefs, etc).
• You dislike any personal conflicts or hostility of any kind.
• You're always willing to help out in a pressure situation,
even if you don't really want to.
• Even in the midst of chaos or high tensions, you are
usually very cool, calm, and serene (or at least you are
perceived as such on the outside).
• You desire a high level of structure and order.
• You are very loyal when it comes to existing operating
procedures.

Your score shows a very low score on the 'C' spectrum.
The comments below highlight some of the traits specific
to just your unique score.
• You tend to have a great deal of conviction that your
direction is correct. You may even become stubborn
about it.
• Some might view how you make decisions as too
arbitrary or not careful enough.
• You like an environment that provides maximum
independence and individual control.
• You prefer varied activities, never a dull moment, and
will stir the pot to create change.
• You are open to creating and trying new ideas and
procedures whether they're needed or not.
• (e.g., "Let's get the job done now and quickly")

Natural Style Pattern:
Your natural style is the way you tend to behave when you aren't thinking about it. This is where
you are most comfortable (natural). This is also the style you will revert back to when under
stress or moving too quickly to be consciously thinking about modifying your behavior. Finally,
this is the style you should seek to be true to in your daily roles. Being natural will return better
results with less effort and stress. The following statements are true to just your unique natural
style:
• Poised, confident, and very articulate in front of large or small groups.
• Able to direct the actions of others on the team using both a charming influence and a firm
delegation of tasks and responsibilities.
• All plotting points in the score pattern indicate a very active agent who makes things happen,
and doesn't wait for things to happen.
• The Lower S traits provide a high sense of urgency to get things done… now.
• High level of decisiveness, coupled with high influencing skills. The Higher D and I traits
are nearly tied.
• Able to combine both direction of others and persuasion of others into a powerful skill of
inspiring others to reach their maximum potential.
• Able to think quickly on your feet.
• Will react, adjust, and modify your behavior in a variety of situations.

Adaptive Style pattern:
This is the style of behavior you adapt to when you are conscious of your own behavior, when
you feel you are being observed or whenever you are trying to better fit a situation. This is not
a natural style for you, but still one of your two styles none the less. In other words, it is the
way you feel you "should" behave when thinking about it. The statements below are specific
to your individual Adaptive style:
• May want to seek specialized assignments that can capitalize on your social and
motivational skills.
• A moderate to higher risk taker, you may sometimes do the unexpected just to get attention,
or create a surprise situation.
• Motivated to be very well networked and you know a wide variety of people within the
profession. This can be of enormous benefit to the team or organization as additional
contacts become necessary.
• You prefer a favorable social environment rather than an antagonistic one, and will work
to maintain the positive environment.
• You are known for a great ability to meet others easily and readily, and are socially poised
in small or large group situations.
• You show a high trust level in the ability of others on the team to carry out their responsibilities
and commitments.
• Able to generate team involvement through friendly conversation and gentle persuasion
of team members in a one-on-one manner.
• You tend to have a moderate to higher sense of urgency, and you may become easily
bored by mundane or routine projects.

Very interesting, although the large disparity in stability scores surprised me.

[Damir]

Well, I think issue (with DISC's general lack of popularity on this forum) was that DISC is a "for sale" behavioral typology system and we never could find a good free test online that didn't have to be paid for.

I'm pretty impressed with this Tony Robbins version -- that was pretty nice, and even had Flash-style graphics/interaction similar to eChemstry's. It was very easy to use. We finally have access to a decent test with decent output on what the results mean.

witch type is Tony Robbins?!??!?

According to the way it describes me, seems pretty fitting with the INTJ MBTI. Very decisive and interested in learning and gaining knowledge and understanding. Although, I think my D is probably a bit higher than most INTJs, up in the range that would seem more ENTJ. I do have a higher Te than most though, so that could explain it.

 

[freeeekyyy]

Lol, a 99 C. wtf does that indicate?

It would seem, according to the definitions, that a high C would indicate a low desire to change procedures and methods, so long as they work properly. You probably aren't very likely to make a bad decision, even if it does take you a while.

That is, assuming the accuracy of the disc.

I got high aesthetics and individualist, but yet it was because I didn't really relate with a lot of stuff. It there were other categories, it would have been A LOT lower.
