EVERYTHING DiSC
The DiSC Model
Everything DiSC gives people a quick and intuitive way to understand themselves —a simple yet powerful model that describes four basic behavioral styles: D, i, S, and C.
D personalities tend to be confident and place an emphasis on accomplishing bottom-line results.
i personalities tend to be more open, placing an emphasis on relationships and influencing others. S personalities tend to be dependable and place an emphasis on cooperation and sincerity. C personalities tend to place an emphasis on quality, accuracy, expertise, and competency. Everyone is a blend of all four DiSC styles—usually one or two styles stand-out. Each person has a unique behavioral profile with associated styles, preferences, and priorities. No style is “good” or “bad,” and no style better or worse than the next. The differences are important, because once assessed, interpreted, and understood, better workplace communications and more successful organizations become more possible. DiSC is a highly regarded, scientifically validated instrument. DiSC is reliable: it measures with consistency and dependability. DiSC is valid: it measures what it proposes to measure.Why Use DiSC?

AQai ADAPTABILITY ASSESSMENTS
“As a disposition and skill, adaptability is essential to an individual’s psychological health, social success, and academic or workplace achievement.“
– National Institutes for Health, 2015 In today’s rapidly changing world, every person, every team, and every company must adapt to survive. The pressure for people to upskill, retrain, and reskill to retain their value or find new employment is a global challenge across industries. Even for those with “secure” employment, the massive disruptions have escalated the pace of change. Against this backdrop, adaptability and resilience have become the most in-demand and valuable skills needed in the modern workplace. The stakes are high. Failing to adapt costs money, impacts performance, fuels mental health problems, leads to job losses, and makes organizations vulnerable to competitors.Are You Hiring for Adaptability?
The days of hiring based on past job experience and current skills are quickly fading. Crucial attributes such as adaptability and resilience do not show up on a resume. Do you know what to look for and how to accurately assess for it? AQai is a new, intelligent platform with an algorithm that measures a person’s AQ to build adaptive teams and organizations. This scientifically valid tool measures the 17 dimensions of adaptability, including grit, mental flexibility, motivation style, thinking style, and emotional range, within the categories of ability, character, and environment.AQai provides real insights into a person’s
resilience and ability to cope with complex environments.
Knowing a person’s AQ gets at the 2 components of grit: perseverance
and passion.
Our HigherEchelon consultants are trained and certified on
AQai. We administer the AQai assessment and interpret results to
provide meaningful, actionable information about individuals and teams.
Our AQai instrument helps you, your team, and your organization find

360-DEGREE ASSESSMENT
The 360-Degree Assessment (“360” for short) provides feedback from a
subject’s subordinates, peers, colleagues, and supervisor(s). A
360 combines this feedback with the person’s self-evaluation to paint
a complete picture of how the person is perceived, while measuring
the consistencies and inconsistencies based on one’s professional relationship
with the subject.
A 360 is a multi-rater assessment, meaning multiple
views of the subject are combined to highlight the subject’s
consistencies, inconsistences, strengths, and weaknesses.
A 360 provides a holistic view of an individual’s
behaviors and how they are perceived. Because a 360 gathers data from a
variety of people, it is particularly useful for identifying blind
spots and areas for improvement. 360’s increase
self-awareness and provide important information about how
others view the person’s behaviors and how best to affect behavioral
changes.
Our HigherEchelon consultants are certified to administer the 360
assessment and interpret results. We use these results to
design appropriate strategies to best implement
behavioral improvements to increase productivity and
performance.
