Everything DiSC® Certified
What is Everything DiSC®? It is personal development learning experience that measures an individual’s preferences and tendencies based on the DiSC® model. The Everything DiSC self-assessment tool gives people a quick and intuitive way to understand themselves and others using DiSC—a simple yet powerful model that describes four basic behavioral styles: Dominance, influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness.
Everyone is a blend of all four DiSC styles—usually, one, two, or even three styles stand out. Each person has a unique behavioral profile with different styles and priorities—no one style is better or worse than the next. The creators of this assessment tool believe that these differences in style can be extremely valuable. Once you assess these differences and harness their value, better workplace communication and healthier organizations become possible.
As a certified professional, using this tool with over a thousand clients and an experienced coach, I can help you better understand your own DiSC style or bring this tool to your organization to better understand your team. This is a great tool for team building, off sites, or to use on teams that are trying to improve communication or building a foundation when forming a new team. Contact me today at DeniseMarquesCoaching@gmail.com, if you would like a free estimate on bringing this tool to you or your team.

Situational Leadership Course Facilitator
What Is the Situational Leadership Model?
The Situational Leadership Model suggests that no single leadership style is better than another. Instead of focusing on workplace factors, the model suggests that leaders should adjust their techniques to their employees’ abilities. The model developed by Ken Blanchard and Paul Hershey suggests four leadership styles—Directing/Telling, Coaching/Selling, Supporting/Participating, and Delegating—that leaders should switch between, depending on whether the employee needs high or low directive and supportive behavior, based on the task at hand.
Under this model, successful leadership is related to both tasks and relationships. It is an adaptive, flexible style in which leaders are encouraged to consider their followers—individuals or a team—and then consider the factors that impact the work environment before choosing how they will lead. This gives them a better chance of meeting their goals.
As an experienced instructor off this model, teaching over 50 courses on the material, I am qualified to come to your organization and teach your team about this concept. While the theory was first published in 1969, it is still very effective when used properly.
