DISC assessments are powerful tools for understanding human behavior—but only when they’re used correctly. Too often, I see people misuse DISC by labeling others, stereotyping roles, or treating it as a final verdict instead of a helpful indicator.

In this episode of Remarkable TV, I’ll share: ✅ Why DISC is a model of behavior, not a definition of people ✅ How DISC shows natural tendencies—not skills or limitations ✅ The danger of labeling people by “just a few letters” ✅ How you can use DISC assessments responsibly and effectively

I believe in the power of DISC—my team and I even offer our own DISC assessment tools. But like any tool, they can do more harm than good if they’re misapplied.
