This series can be adapted to meet the specific needs of any organization. The process starts with a needs analysis. The program is then tailored so that participants have an understanding of the company’s mission statement and management policies. A pilot program to senior management is then recommended to ensure that all the necessary components are in place prior to introducing these concepts and standards to trainees. Pricing depends on the amount of customization. Travel expenses, the needs analysis and the pilot program are not included in this pricing.

This series utilizes the DiSC® Classic personality assessment tool by Inscape Publishing. Participants are responsible for taking a short self-assessment online before attending the workshop. A detailed report of the results will be given to the participants during their session. The report offers personalized feedback that will assist the participants in understanding the strengths and challenges of their behavioral style, as well as how and why other people may have different but equally valid preferences. Discussions of results are tailored to fit the subject matter of the specific workshop.
