The test characterized me as a very high "D" type and I strongly agree with it. If you scroll down to my second post that discusses my management problem you can conclude the same thing.
Unfortunately I am low on "I" and "S", and especially "I", which I would like and I will try to change. I think that even though you can't change your personality type with hard work you can control it and straighten the parts of your personality that are not as developed.
I definitely think it is useful to know the "profile" of the people you work with to better understand why they think and act the way they do and also to know how to approach them.
The DISC test would be definitely useful when working or interacting with people you don't know very much, and if you do you can pretty much predict what type they would be. But it is great to know and learn about this model to better understand the way other "types" think.

Where do you get the map?
So according to the test, "C" type and "D" type are very compatible. I am a "C" type, what do you think?
A DISC with any other name would still spin as fast and fly as far.
I am not surprised that you are a "D", it really comes across in your personality. You are definitely the right stuff for the business world in NYC or anywhere else. I feel working with you in the groups made me work harder and activated what little "D" i might have. Very often these things are contagious.
Howdy neighbor.
Forgive me but, this is my first time responding to your blog entries.
I know that you have a very high "D" fro sitting next to you. I think that being dominant can be an important attribute to have as a leader. It is important to take control of a situation, and to be able to make quick decisions.
Anyway, take care of yourself dominant one.
Have a great spring break!
I definetly see the D in you. Its a great trait to have. The business world eats that up, especially when they see the grades you've been pulling from those exams. I think it is very true that if you understand the different types of others that it can give you the upper hand in being able to understand their wants and needs while creating a compatible situation to increase productivity with less emotional interference.
Hope your enjoying your break.
Having a high D is a great personality trait in today's world. But I am sure if you work on your "I", you will do great.
The people who have high D's also have strong will power so they can accomplish a lot without even trying very hard.
All the best!!
