Dear HR Professional,

Do you feel like you’d like to know more about DISC, but don’t know where to go? Have you ever been asked questions about DISC that you didn’t feel 100% comfortable answering?

What would it be like if you could walk into the room and be known as a DISC expert, confident you were harnessing the full power of DISC?

Have you wondered how DISC could be so deep? Well, it is every bit as rich as other tools out there, such as the MBTI. I am also qualified to administer and interpret the Myers-Briggs, but in the workplace, I love the simplicity AND depth of DISC.

Unfortunately, many people don’t know the “power of DISC”. In the worst-case scenarios, they actually turn people off, due to their own lack of understanding in how the tool should be used. We will teach you the richness of DISC - from one of the experts. Our virtual program, Go DEEP with DISC is designed to provide you with the knowledge and the skills to use DISC effectively, and enhance your value to your organization and/or clients.

This program is guaranteed to show you how to craft DISC solutions effectively within just 12 weeks. Go DEEP with DISC, will qualify you as a highly-skilled DISC Practitioner in 12 weeks.

You probably have questions about the Go DEEP with DISC program, so I want to encourage you to call me personally to get answers to the things you’re wondering about. I’ll give you straight answers with no pressure. You can call me at 888-439-6070. I’d love to talk with you.

Sincerely,

Testimonial by Mary Kay , Go DEEP with DISC program participant.

"Do yourself a favor and participate in "Go DEEP with DISC!" Whether you are new to DISC or an experienced trainer or manager, you can't help but benefit from this experience. The best advice I was ever given was from my father when he told me to surround myself with successful people. Paula Switzer is among the best in the business! She has been there and done that and shares openly her experiences to help us in our businesses. Her first hand knowledge and expertise enables her to relate to people where they are in their personal and professional development. Paula has a style that is warm & engaging yet direct and easy to understand. Her extensive experience coupled with her sense of humor make learning DISC in depth an enjoyable experience. It has helped me become more successful. Learning from other participants was just as helpful as learning the new material, i.e. how others use DISC in their business, real life examples of implementing the skills, trouble-shooting advice in tough situations, etc. And the classes are recorded so if you have to miss for some reason, you can still get the information. For me, experiencing the class was definitely something I looked forward to each week and I didn't want to miss! In addition to the actual sessions, I found the resource page to be most helpful. Throughout the course, Paula posts articles, books, links, lists, among other resources for class participants to access which adds value and provides for additional learning. Thanks, Paula for your commitment to my success. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and "GO DEEP WITH DISC!" I'm glad I did!"
Kevin Bullard

"GO DEEP with DISC!" is a remarkable course that:

  • Covers the breadth of DISC through easy-to-understand and interesting modules

  • Offers the expertise and accessibility of an experienced instructor, and her efficient staff
  • Is already producing remarkable ROI
Discovering Paula and Go DEEP! was definitely to my benefit, and I highly recommend her!
