What if Everything You Know About DISC Training is Wrong?

Wednesday, October 16, 2024 2:00pm - 3:00pm EDT

Host: Association for Talent Development
By: Merrick Rosenberg, CEO, Take Flight Learning

For too long, DISC training has focused on graphs, reports, and memorizing a model. Training programs receive rave reviews as participants learn about the most interesting topic of all… themselves. However, the styles are fleeting, and the training has minimal impact. In this session, Merrick Rosenberg will show you a reimagined way to teach people about themselves and others. It’s time to help people become their best selves as you learn to infuse the styles into your culture.

During this event, you will:

  • Discover why most styles-based training is designed for short-term memory, not long-term retention
  • Learn how to reframe the message to shift the focus from learning a model to applying skills
  • Gain insight on how to deliver brain-friendly styles-based training that engages learners in the classroom and creates long-term impact
