DISC Consulting Services

We believe the companies using DISC profiles has grown dramatically over the past 5 years. We believe it is the single most important tool to improve individual, organization and team performace. Companies realize the tools deliver results efficiently and effectively. The most common use are in 3 areas:

Assessment Tool

Web based organizational assessment tool that provides our clients with information on how well critical organizational elements are working or not working together and identify areas of improvement. For example, we're not concerned with measuring communication simply for communication's sake, but rather how effectively is our client communicating essential, strategic and tactical information throughout the organization.

Job Benchmarking

Benchmarking a specific job, not the person, is used for development, selection, retention and management. Key accountabilities specific to the job are used to generate recruitment assessments and formulate job descriptions. This allows companies to maximize their talent potential. 

Development

Companies that foster a continuous learning culture find that developing talent pays big dividends. Market leaders gain a competitive edge when they hire, retain and develop today's high potential employees into the superior performers they will need tomorrow.

Athletic Consulting Services

We offer sports consulting services to athletes, coaches, athletic administrators and sports professionals that want to see significant improvements in their performance. We provide each with their own unique sports specific profiles. We are proud to provide the tools from Athlete Assessments, the first sports version of DISC theory, developed by four-time Olympian Bo Hanson. Those tools are as follows:

AthleteDISC

AthleteDISC gives you detailed, personalized insight and analysis that enables you to truly understand how and why you behave as you do in training and in competition, and why you get the results you do. 

With this valuable information and guidance you can consciously apply your personal strengths, and identify specific issues to focus on, to realize your full potential as an athlete.

As an athlete, physical training can only take you so far. The difference between a "good" performance and a "great" one is not about physical training and conditioning, it's all about "the top six inches"...using your head.

CoachDISC

CoachDISC behavioral profiling for coaches helps you realize your potential to be an exceptional coach. The key to achieving this is all about developing self-awareness, and understanding your athletes as individuals.

Self-awareness is the recognition of one's behaviors, strengths, weaknesses, beliefs and values and how these help create your experiences in life. Coaches who are more self-aware can control and exhibit the types of behaviors that create great and consistent performances.

ManagerDISC

ManagerDISC is designed for Athletic Directors, Managers and Athletic Administrators and is the cornerstone to leadership training. We recognize and appreciate that much of a team's success is based on excellence in team management and administration. Often, all of the focus is on the coaches and athletes and the very people that provide all of the support and service to this group miss out on their own professional development.

Aligned with CoachDISC and AthleteDISC profiles, it is an online sports industry specific assessment to support managers, administrators, support staff and other sports professionals to be used for their personal and professional development.

High School Student-Athlete Consulting Services
 

The college sports recruiting process has changed dramatically over the past 10 years.

With more than 1200 college programs and 35,000 college coaches, the recruiting process has become very complex and extremely competitive.

Outside of the "Blue Chip" athletes in all sports, most recruitable student-athletes go unnoticed. This results in thousands of student-athletes missing out on the opportunity to be recruited, obtain an athletic scholarship, get their education paid for and be able to continue to play the sport they love.

Student-athletes and parents need to understang that beyond the "Blue Chip" athlete, it is a remarkably level playing field and athletic dreams can be achieved if they dedicate the time and follow a proven system.

In order to attract the attention of college coaches you must stand out from your competition. We provide our student-athletes with a valuable tool that will (1) help them reach their true potential (2) attract the attention of college coaches and (3) put them in the greatest position to obtain a scholarship. 

In order to reach your full potential as a student-athlete you need to approach taking the SAT or ACT in the same manner as you prepare for classroom studies and in your sport. This is a valuable part of the recruiting process that is completely overlooked by the majority of student-athletes.

We provide 2 critical services that are unique to the college athletic recruiting process. We believe they are the MOST IMPORTANT services a student-athlete could receive INCREASING their chances of obtaining a scholarship.
