They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this makes it easy for them to find ways of achieving objectives that fit their behavioral style.

They are: • Decisive — your preference for problem solving and getting results • Interactive — your preference for interacting with others and showing emotion • Stability — your preference for pacing, persistence and steadiness • Cautious — your preference for procedures, standards and protocols • The Elements of DISC — Educational background behind the profile, the science and the four dimensions of behavior • The DISC Dimensions — A closer look at each of your four behavioral dimensions • Style Summary — A comparison of your natural and adaptive behavioral styles • Behavioral Strengths — A detailed strengths-based description of your overall behavioral style • Communication — Tips on how you like to communicate and be communicated with • Ideal Job Climate — Your ideal work environment • Effectiveness — Insights into how you can be more effective by understanding your behavior • Behavioral Motivations — Ways to ensure your environment is motivational • Continual Improvement — Areas where you can focus on improving • Training & Learning Style — Your preferred means of sharing and receiving styles • Relevance Section — Making the information real and pertinent to you • Success Connection — Connecting your style to your own life Copyright 2019 Innermetrix Incorporated • All rights reserved 6 renelyn quijano This report includes: DISC Plus Four Components of Behavior The Elements of the DISC-Index This DISC-Index report is unique in the marketplace for a number of reasons. You just completed the first ever click & drag DISC instrument on the market. This was constructed in a precise manner to allow for ease of responses, even in the midst of many difficult decisions. This intuitive interface allows you to focus on your answers, not the process. Also, unlike other DISC instruments, this instrument allows you to rank all four items instead. As a result, this instrument produces zero waste in responses. Some instruments ask you to choose two items out of four, and leave two items blank. Those instruments have a 50% waste of terms, and do not provide for an efficient response process. The DISC Index instrument eliminates that response problem. Another unique aspect of this DISC-Index report is that we present the DISC aspects of your behavior both as separate entities and as a dynamic combination of traits. This report presents the first time that as an important learning tool as you explore the deeper aspects of DISC. Your unique pattern of DISC traits is developed through the context of this report. Additionally, the following four pages will be devoted to exploring your DISC scores as separate components within the unique combination of traits that you exhibit. A comment on contradictions: You may read some areas of this report that may contradict other text. This is due to the fact that many of us show contradictory behaviors in the normal course of our daily operations. Each of us are at times talkative and other times more reflective, depending on how we are adapting our behavior. The expression of these contradictions is a demonstration of the sensitivity of this instrument to determine these subtle differences in our natural and adaptive style.

Your score on this scale, represented below, shows your location on the D spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher D — Tend to solve new problems very quickly and assertively. They take an active and direct approach to obtaining results. The key here is new problems such as those that are unprecedented or haven't happened before. There may also be an element of risk in taking the wrong approach or developing an incorrect solution, but those with a High D score are willing to take those risks, even if they may be incorrect. Natural - 49 / Adaptive 49 Your score shows a low average score on the 'D' spectrum. The comments below highlight some of the traits specific to just your unique score. • - • • • • • You are usually very supportive of decisions made by others on the team. You are a calculated risk-taker, but only after you have had sufficient time to consider all potential outcomes. You can be very modest in dealing with others. Under high pressure, you may become somewhat indecisive or resistant to making a very quick decision. You think it is important to have some time to evaluate options before acting. Sometimes you demand too much of yourself. 10 0 Copyright 2019 Innermetrix Incorporated • All rights reserved 10 renelyn quijano Lower D — Tend to solve new problems in a more deliberate, controlled, and organized manner. Again, the key here is new and unprecedented problems. The Lower D style will solve routine problems very quickly because the outcomes are already known. But, when the outcomes are unknown and the problem is an uncertain one, the Lower D style will approach the new problem in a calculated and deliberate manner by thinking things through very carefully before acting. DISC Plus Four Components of Behavior Interactive Your approach to interacting with people and display of emotions The I in DISC represents Interactive. Your score on this scale represented below shows your location on the I spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher I — Tend to meet new people in an outgoing, gregarious, and socially assertive manner. The key here is new people whom one hasn't met before. Many other styles are talkative, but more so with people that they've known for some time. The Higher I scores are talkative, interactive and open even with people whom they have just initially met. People scoring in this range may also be a bit impulsive. Generally speaking, those with the Higher I scores are generally talkative and outgoing. Natural - 60 / Adaptive 25 Your score shows a high average score on the 'I' spectrum. The comments below highlight some of the traits specific to just your unique score. • - • • • • • People may find you charming to meet and to converse with on a variety of topics.

They tend to place a premium on the control of emotions, and approach new relationships with a more reflective approach than an emotional one. DISC Plus Four Components of Behavior Stabilizing Your approach to the pace of the work environment The S in DISC represents Stabilizing. Your score on this scale represented below shows your location on the S spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher S — Tend to prefer a more controlled, deliberative and predictable environment. They place a premium on security of a work situation and disciplined behavior. They also tend to show a sense of loyalty to a team or organization, and as a result, may have a greater longevity or tenure in a position than some other styles. They have an excellent listening style and are very patient coaches and teachers for others on the team. Natural - 53 / Adaptive 53 Your score shows a high average score on the 'S' spectrum.

They value freedom of expression and the ability to change quickly from one activity to another. They tend to become bored with the same routine that brings security to the Higher S traits. As a result, they will seek opportunities and outlets for their high sense of urgency and high activity levels, as they have a preference for spontaneity. DISC Plus Four Components of Behavior Cautious Your approach to standards, procedures, and expectations The C in DISC represents Cautiousness. Your score on the scale represented below shows your location on the C spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher C — Tend to adhere to rules, standards, procedures, and protocol set by those in authority whom they respect. They like things to be done the right way according to the operating manual. "Rules are made to be followed" is an appropriate motto for those with higher C scores. They have some of the highest quality control interests of any of the styles and frequently wish others would do the same.
