The AMA DISC Survey (10 Pack)

The AMA DISC Survey is designed and intended to be used for individual, group, and organizational development. The survey is equally suitable for managers, work group or team members, and individual contributors. The personal styles measured by the survey are relevant to programs focusing on personal development, problem solving and decision making, time management, interpersonal relations, conflict management, team building, and organizational change.

The AMA DISC Survey has several unique features that provide distinct advantages over alternative personal style assessments. These include:

• The Survey is explicitly oriented toward work-related behaviors.
• The Survey is designed to enhance reliability and validity.
• The Survey is printed on NCR (no carbon required) paper (easy to score).
• The Survey provides an efficient way for people to learnabout their styles.

The AMA DISC Survey comes with a Debriefing Guide that includes seven modules, each of which take approximately 5 to 10 minutes to complete. The Debriefing Guide provides facilitators and respondents with a variety of options for understanding and applying The AMA DISC Survey:

• The Guide provides interpretations of dominant styles, as well as style combinations.
• The Guide encourages participants to apply the information presented.
• The Guide enables participants to examine the positive and negative aspects of their styles.
• The Guide is oriented toward self-development.
• The Guide can be used in a number of ways.

The AMA DISC Survey takes approximately 30 to 40 minutes to administer, score, and debrief.

The AMA DISC Survey can be used as an introduction to personal styles, or it can be used as the basis for a half-day session on personal, interpersonal, team, or organizational development. Appendix B presents a number of suggested program designs for using The AMA DISC Survey to accomplish different objectives. A set of transparency masters is contained in Appendix C.
