Behavioral (DISC)
The Behavior Analysis Instrument is a personalized report designed to accurately measure the four dimensions of normal behavior. Its validity has been scientifically tested. The behavioral factors (DISC) are D: Dominance-Challenge (How you respond to problems or challenges), I: Influence-Contacts (How you influence others to your point of view), S: Steadiness-Consistency (How you respond to the pace of the environment) and C: Compliance-Constraints (How you respond to rules and procedures set by others).

Motivators
Did you know that everyone has six drivers (or passions) that drive their behavior? We can provide you with an assessment that can measure an employee's or candidate's passions. For example, in a sales position, we would look for a high utilitarian value which is a drive for return on investment of time, money and energy. Ask us about this valuable placement and development tool.
