The DiSC Dominance Profile measures an individual’s ability to overcome the challenges and obstacles that they may face on a daily basis both within and outside of the working environment. Those who score highly in the DiSC Behavioral Profile with the ‘D’ Dimension are characterized by dominance as the innate behavioral pattern. They respond well under pressure and are motivated by challenges, problem solving and crises. Those who score highly in the D dimension typically prefer a fast-paced environment. They like to take charge and have the authority to make decisions for themselves and others in order to accomplish specific goals and responsibilities that involve a good degree of multi-tasking. Direct and decisive individuals are typically independent, results-driven employees who keep a major portion of their focus on the bottom line. This type of individual can be very beneficial to the expansion and profitability of businesses. These individuals can be a great asset to the workforce as they tend to be very dependable and have no issues with being held accountable for their actions. Their ability to be demanding and direct in their speech can be very effective at motivating and guiding others in directions that will help to achieve the overall common goals of the business. Small business owners tend to make good use of these particular personality traits due to the independent nature of the work required to be successful in this fast paced industry. On the other hand, individuals who score highly in the Dominance Profile may greatly benefit from using the DiSC assessment tools to help them learn to adapt their inherent behavior to different environments. In order to achieve desired results from others, it is important to be able to adjust communication strategies towards other individuals with varying behavioral patterns. Others may respond much better to a softer, yet still straight-forward and motivational type of approach, and some people might need a very detailed and specific form of direction that is given in a gentle manner.
