This month, we are looking at each DISC Style and their unique response to stress as well as practical hints on how to best alleviate that stress. So far, we have covered the “in-charge-do-it-now” High D-Style, the “fun-loving-people-focused” High I Style and the “super-patient-team-player” High S-Style. If you would like to read those past blogposts, just click here.
This week, our focus is on the High C-Style. As a short reminder, the High C-Style is:
- Is conscientious
- Likes procedures
- Focuses on tasks and details
- Often doesn’t mind working alone
- Is precise
- Prefers a systematic approach
- Often has a slower “motor” – walks slower, thinks and talks slower
When a High C-Style encounters Stress, their response is often to:
- Question everything
- Be overly prudent
- Withdraw
- Fear the worst
To alleviate that Stress, the C-Style could:
- Get more information
- Clarify their role in the situation
- Ask good questions
- Improve the procedures or systems being used
To put all the information on Stress and DISC Styles together, I’ve written a short e-book, “How to DISC Stress Goodbye for Good: Four Steps to Recognize and Alleviate Stress and Renew Yourself”. Just click here for more information.
