Tuesday Apr 05, 2022
Not long ago I was invited to take part in one of the more than fifty Tero Clinics created by Tero International. I was asked to fill out a personal assessment and then, several weeks later, directed to attend a 90-minute Zoom event. Here Liz Cooney, the Director of Training for Tero International and I talk about that experience which, quite frankly, blew me away. Click through to learn with Everything DISC is all about, the way it is presented and the eye-opening impact it had. This simple yet powerful model describes four basic styles: Dominance, Influence, Conscientiousness and Steadiness. Know yours and be able to deal with others. Fascinating.
