Influencing Skills using DISC Behavioural Styles

DISC is a model of human behaviour that helps you to understand why people do what they do.

The dimensions of Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance make up the model giving insights into a person's personality intelligence and their intrinsic motivation. These dimensions interact with other personality factors to describe human behaviour.

This online course has been created to help you apply DISC behavioural principles to working as part of a team or in situations that involve influencing and selling.

By understanding your inherent behavioural style and then learning how to determine and appropriately react to the buying styles of your team members, customers and clients, you will be better able to communicate, motivate, convince and ultimately influence more buying decisions. It will help you to develop more engaging relationships.

Everybody has their own style based around their behavioural preferences. Each person instinctively acts according to their inherent style. Team members will act out their styles in team working. Customers will act out their styles in buying situations. Salespeople will feel more comfortable selling according to their natural style.

Being able to identify the behavioural style of other people will give you valuable insights that you can use to establish rapport, open lines of communication, build trust, motivate and influence. Ways to work with each behavioural style will be explored along with techniques to enhance and improve your interactions leading to better communication.

The course is designed to give you a deep understanding of behavioural styles and goes into detail about
