At Action International, we use DiSC and VAK to help make decisions about team members and where best to place them. It also helps the team gain a better understanding on how to communicate with each other. Knowing someone’s personal profile allows for a much better understanding of how the person learns and operates.
DiSC
DiSC uses the Style Analysis Instrument and was initially designed to assist people achieve a higher degree of success in life and work. Successful people know their strengths and limitations and by realizing their weaknesses, are able to overcome their shortcomings and take full advantage of their strengths. DiSC uncovers insights about four dimensions of normal behavior. A brief description of the four behaviors is listed below:
“D” Style “I” Style
Adventuresome Charming
Competitive Confident
Daring Convincing
Decisive Enthusiastic
Direct Inspiring
Innovative Optimistic
Persistent Persuasive
Problem Solver Popular
Results-Orientated Sociable
Team Player Precise
Understanding
“S” Style “C” Style
Amiable Accurate
Friendly Analytical
Good Listener Conscientious
Patient Diplomatic
Self-starter Trusting
Relaxed Fact-Finder
Sincere High Standards
Stable Mature
Steady Patient
By recognizing your peers and behavioral styles and adapting to them, you’ll increase your understanding, appreciation, and communication with them leading to relationships that are more productive.
VAK
At Action, we use the “Language System Diagnostic Instrument” (LSDI) to analyze a person’s communication and behavior patterns and for determining how to interact with that person in the process of change. The result of the questionnaire is a clear understanding of where you fit and how we make distinctions concerning our environment. Both internal and external are represented in terms of three sensory systems: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. People who rely on their visual systems appear to run movies in their heads when remembering or storing information. If people are primarily auditory, i.e. taking information through sounds, remembering may be like replaying a tape recorder, with original tones and dialogue. People who are primarily kinesthetic respond to internal bodily feeling or tactile sense. They remember bodily sensations in recalling experiences.
This knowledge provides an amazing insight into the people we work with or for; however, we must be cautious not to “box” people or become complacent about ourselves because we are not naturally suited to a particular task.
