How Often Should You Take the DISC Assessment? Yesterday's Networking Discussion
Yesterday at our networking meeting, we had a great conversation about something I think a lot of us overlook - how often should we actually retake the DISC personality assessment? The answer might surprise you.
What is the DISC Assessment Anyway?
DISC measures four main personality traits: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. Your core personality stays pretty much the same, but how you show up at work? That changes as your career grows, your responsibilities shift, and life throws you curveballs.
Why Taking It Every Year Actually Matters
Here's the thing - your business doesn't stay the same, so why would your self-awareness? Taking the DISC test yearly helps you see how career changes, new leadership roles, or even major personal events are affecting how you work with others.
How This Helps Our Networking Relationships
For groups like ours, knowing each other's current DISC profiles makes collaboration and referrals so much smoother. When you understand whether someone's become more direct in their decision-making or developed a more patient, steady approach, you can communicate better and build stronger business partnerships.
What Actually Changes Year to Year?
Catching these shifts helps you adjust how you communicate and run your business. The bottom line? Taking the DISC assessment at the beginning of every year isn't about changing who you are. It's about staying self-aware in a world that's constantly changing. Our discussion yesterday really drove home how this one simple thing can improve how we work together, refer business, and support each other's success.
