DiSC Profile Group Reports

Many of you use the DiSC Profile to assess behavioral styles within your organization. Did you know that you can also use group reports to look at the group as a whole. Inscape Publishing has created exceptional reporting to help you look at the group as a whole. There are basically three group reports associated with the DiSC Profile:
  • DiSC Team View
  • DiSC Facilitator Group Report
  • DiSC Group Culture Report
The DiSC Team View is a free report that can be run by EPIC account owners. This reports consists of all of the group member's DiSC graphs and their classical patterns. There is no narrative piece to this report but it is free on EPIC.

The DiSC Facilitator Report is a comprehensive report containing a breakdown by DiSC Quadrant showing the percentage of people who receive high, moderate, or low scores in each of the DiSC styles. Each quadrant also displays the percentage of people who received that style as their primary or secondary style.

This section allows you to compare your group distribution in the four styles against the general reference data.
