Data Dome Services – DISC Training & Certification

Behavioral Style Strategist Certification is a behaviorally based communication training that includes an on-site or online seminar, textbook, one-on-one sessions, and a final examination. Participants learn how to communicate more effectively, using the DISC language to understand themselves and appreciate the value of different styles.

Unlike most other DISC training, our method doesn't just give you the broad-strokes characteristics of a High D, High I, High S, and High C. You will attain a dynamic understanding of behavioral styles that uses the position of all four graph points (high and low) and how they interact with one another.

You will be empowered to apply DISC analysis in the workplace - ethically and effectively - for solutions that benefit everyone.

Living DISC is all around you. DISC is a neutral language to describe what you experience every day in your interactions with others. Like any new tool, it requires practice and application.

That's why we have coaching sessions to help you integrate your understanding of DISC. What have you experienced or discovered this week? How can an understanding of DISC help you to understand and adapt?

The Golden Rule is an insightful ethical standard, but it doesn't apply to communication methods. You will learn to deal with others in the way they would prefer to be treated, not just in the way that you prefer.

Effective communication stems from the right combination of tone of voice, words, body language, and pace of speech and actions. These four areas are the components of a person's behavioral style. Understanding styles corrects misconceptions, miscommunications and misunderstandings. Using the techniques of our training and coaching, you will attain expertise in opening the different doors of communication for better relationships and work environments.

You'll be trained by an expert in the field of behavioral strategy who has trained thousands of individuals in the concepts and applications of behavioral analysis. Upon successful completion of the program and the certification examination, you will receive the CPBS (Certified Professional Behavioral Strategist) Certificate.
