Elise is on-site this week for Online Access, Inc. Vendor Summit.
During her presentation she led a quick exercise for everyone to learn where their DISC communication style might be.
Ever wonder why you connect so easily with some and with others it is a slower build?
It may be that you’re the same style, or could be that you value the same things or work/speak at the same pace as someone.
You can determine your DISC style (or the style of others) in just TWO questions??
Here they are:
1️⃣ Are you more fast paced and outspoken OR more cautious and reflective?
2️⃣ A new task comes to you—Are you more questioning and skeptical OR more welcoming and accepting?
Based on your answers here’s what the style might be:
➡️ D styles are fast paced, outspoken and also questioning and skeptical (Dominant, drivers)
➡️ I styles are are fast paced, outspoken and welcoming and accepting (Influencing, People person)
➡️ S styles are more cautious and reflective and questioning and skeptical (Steady, supportive peeps)
➡️ C styles are more cautious and reflective and questioning and skeptical (Compliant, highly accurate individuals)

How do I know if an employee is ready for leadership development?
That was a question posed by a leader I’m working with.
Here’s how I answered that question 👇🏻
They may be ready if they:
• Take initiative without being asked
• Positively influence the people around them
• Consistently demonstrate accountability
• Show a desire to learn and grow
• Express interest in greater responsibility
They may not be ready if they:
• Struggle to take ownership of their work
• Resist feedback or coaching
• Focus only on individual performance
• Avoid communication or conflict
• Show little interest in personal growth
Been considering how to develop your next level of leaders? Reach out and let’s talk!
🚨New swag alert 🚨
Thank you for the swag and more importantly the community of proud to be part of it!
Growing your home service business starts with growing your people.
Most owners pour energy into marketing, tech, and equipment. But the real bottleneck is usually on the team side.
Miscommunication between your CSRs and techs or dispatchers and techs.
Managers who were great in the field but struggle to lead people. Crew members who just don't click.
DiSC gives your whole team a shared language for how they communicate, give feedback, and work together.
One workshop. Real results.
If you want to see how this could work for your company, reach out and let's set up a call to talk through it.
Drop "DISC" in the comments and I'll send you my DISC communication style cheat sheet.
He didn't just want better employees. He wanted better men.
Doug went first. He took the DiSC assessment, got honest about his own style, and brought his whole team through the same process.
That decision gave his people something most training programs never do (but ours do!): permission to grow as humans, not just as workers.
In the trades, we talk a lot about culture and accountability.
But it starts with the owner being willing to model what he's asking of others.
