With the DISC model, you map observable behaviour. It is about how you come across to others, not about who you are. The DISC model is divided into four behavioural styles: Dominance, Influence, Stability and Conformism. Each of the behavioural styles has specific behavioural characteristics.

Behavioural styles are sometimes more difficult to remember. A colour, on the other hand, is expressive and easy to remember. You’re also more likely to hear: “I also took a DISC test once, my highest behavioural style was mostly Yellow.” You are less likely to hear: “I also took a DISC test once, my highest behavioural style was Influence.” In this blog, we will explain to you what DISC yellow means.
