AthleteDISC Assessment

Get practical strategies that will help you coach athletes based on their individual needs. Know the behaviors that produce their best performances for greater consistency when it counts the most. Help your athletes build self-awareness to make improvements and take greater responsibility for their behavior on and off the field.

When so many other factors in sport are very similar, it is how well the ‘people side’ is managed that differentiates the mediocre from the truly great. DISC profiling builds the self-awareness you need as a Coach, an athlete or sports professional, to take your performance to the next level. To get ahead and stay ahead. Use it to develop your emotional intelligence and understand how to consistently achieve your best results as an individual and with others. Athlete Assessments’ DISC profiles use proven techniques based on decades of behavioral research and are created and used specifically for sport.

What is DISC

DISC’s primary purpose is developing self-awareness and providing a framework to understand, then build effective relationships with others. Why is this important? Because in sport, what differentiates the best is never just physical or technical ability. Instead, it is who has the best mental, emotional and relationship skills. (The 2008 Olympic Study showed the top factors contributing to medal and PB performances, were a strong Coach-athlete relationship, and a high level of athlete self-awareness.) As Joe Gibbs said: “You don’t win with X’s and O’s. What you win with is people.” DISC Profiling is the fastest and most effective way to develop the ‘people side’ of sport. DISC Profiling provides practical strategies to improve performance through:

• Developing self-awareness  

• Effective communication

• More productive relationships

• Tailoring coaching, and

• Identifying how each person contributes their best.

Its applications range from improving team effectiveness and interpersonal relationships, to leadership development, to recruitment and professional development plans. Read More…
