What if the colleague who drives you crazy is actually the person you need the most?

In this eye-opening conversation, communication expert and Certified DISC® Facilitator E.G. Sebastian reveals how understanding personality differences through DISC can transform workplace relationships and dramatically reduce conflict. With over 20 years of experience inspiring 500+ audiences worldwide, E.G. breaks down the four primary styles and shows how they impact teamwork, leadership, and communication.

✅ Dominance (D): fast-paced, task-oriented, decisive—but sometimes too blunt
✅ Influence (I): energetic, people-focused, inspiring—but may overlook details
✅ Steadiness (S): supportive, loyal, steady—but can resist change
✅ Conscientiousness (C): precise, analytical, quality-driven—but may overanalyze

You’ll learn how to spot each style, flex your own communication to connect better, and see why the traits that frustrate us most in others are often the very strengths our teams need.

Whether you’re a leader building balanced teams or simply trying to get along better at work, this episode gives you practical tools to reduce conflict, boost collaboration, and appreciate the unique wiring of your colleagues.
