The new “Who Moved My Cheese?” is based on the #1 best selling book by Dr Spencer Johnson, an internationally respected thought leader on change. Dr Johnson set out to change the way people viewed change. The result was “Who Moved My Cheese?” An A-Mazing way to deal with change in your work and in your life. A simple yet enlightening story of four characters (Sniff, Scurry, Hem and Haw) who lived in a “Maze” and look for cheese to nourish them and make them happy.

What is DISC?
DISC is the universal language of observable human behavior. It’s about how we act, communicate and understand people. Scientific research has proven that people, in terms of ‘how they act’ universally, have similar characteristics. The DISC model is a simple way for people to understand their own behavior, identify other people’s style, and adapt their communication for enhanced relationships and increased effectiveness.
Understanding the acronym

How you approach problems & deal with Challenges

How you interact with and attempt to influence People
S t e a d i n e s s
How you respond to pace, consistency, change and levels of Activity
C o m p l i a n c e
How you respond to Procedures, rules and regulations set by others
All people exhibit all four behavioural factors in varting degrees of intensity.
By recognising and understanding your own behavioral style, and becoming familiar with other behavioural styles, individuals will feel more comfortable with who they are and relate more appropriately to others in different environment.
“Its not what you are. Its what you do with what you are” and how we choose our responses, rather than react.
