About This Report
Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common trait ofself-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this makes it easy forthem to find ways of achieving objectives that fit their behavioral style. They also understand theirlimitations and where they are not effective and this helps them understand where not to go or how notto be as well. Those who understand their natural behavioral preferences are far more likely to pursuethe right opportunities, in the right way, at the right time, and get the results they desire.
This report measures four dimensions of your behavioral style. They are:• Decisive — your preference for problem solving and getting results• Interactive — your preference for interacting with others and showing emotion• Stability — your preference for pacing, persistence and steadiness• Cautious — your preference for procedures, standards and protocols

The Elements of the DISC-Index
This DISC-Index report is unique in the marketplace for a number of reasons. You just completed thefirst ever click & drag DISC instrument on the market. This was constructed in a precise manner to allowfor ease of responses, even in the midst of many difficult decisions. This intuitive interface allows you tofocus on your answers, not the process.
Also, unlike other DISC instruments, this instrument allows you to rank all four items instead. As a result,this instrument produces zero waste in responses. Some instruments ask you to choose two items outof four, and leave two items blank. Those instruments have a 50% waste of terms, and do not providefor an efficient response process. The DISC Index instrument eliminates that response problem.
Another unique aspect of this DISC-Index report is that we present the DISC aspects of your behaviorboth as separate entities and as a dynamic combination of traits. This report presents the first time thateach of the DISC elements are separated and developed as pure entities of themselves. This can serveas an important learning tool as you explore the deeper aspects of DISC. Your unique pattern of DISCtraits is developed through the context of this report. Additionally, the following four pages will bedevoted to exploring your DISC scores as separate components within the unique combination of traitsthat you exhibit.
A comment on contradictions: You may read some areas of this report that may contradict other text.This is due to the fact that many of us show contradictory behaviors in the normal course of our dailyoperations. Each of us are at times talkative and other times more reflective, depending on how we areadapting our behavior. The expression of these contradictions is a demonstration of the sensitivity ofthis instrument to determine these subtle differences in our natural and adaptive style.

Decisive
Your approach to problem-solving and obtaining results
The D in DISC represents Decisiveness. Your score on this scale, represented below, shows your locationon the D spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a lowscore doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example:
Higher D —Tend to solve new problems very quickly and assertively. They take an active and direct approach toobtaining results. The key here is new problems such as those that are unprecedented or haven'thappened before. There may also be an element of risk in taking the wrong approach or developingan incorrect solution, but those with a High D score are willing to take those risks, even if they may beincorrect.
Lower D —Tend to solve new problems in a more deliberate, controlled, and organized manner. Again, the keyhere is new and unprecedented problems. The Lower D style will solve routine problems very quicklybecause the outcomes are already known. But, when the outcomes are unknown and the problem isan uncertain one, the Lower D style will approach the new problem in a calculated and deliberatemanner by thinking things through very carefully before acting.

Interactive
Your approach to interacting with people and display of emotions.
The I in DISC represents Interactive. Your score on this scale represented below shows your location onthe I spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low scoredoesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example:
Higher I —Tend to meet new people in an outgoing, gregarious, and socially assertive manner. The key here isnew people whom one hasn't met before. Many other styles are talkative, but more so with peoplethat they've known for some time. The Higher I scores are talkative, interactive and open even withpeople whom they have just initially met. People scoring in this range may also be a bit impulsive.Generally speaking, those with the Higher I scores are generally talkative and outgoing.
Lower I —Tend to meet new people in a more controlled, quiet and reserved manner. Here's where the key word"new people" enters the equation. Those with Lower I scores are talkative with their friends and closeassociates, but tend to be more reserved with people they've just recently met. They tend to place apremium on the control of emotions, and approach new relationships with a more reflective approachthan an emotional one.

About This Report
Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common trait of
self-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this makes it easy
for them to find ways of achieving objectives that resonate with their motivations. They also understand
their limitations and where they are not effective and this helps them understand what does not inspire
them or what will not motivate them to succeed. Those who understand their natural motivators better
are far more likely to pursue the right opportunities, for the right reasons, and get the results they desire.
This report measures seven dimensions of motivation. They are:
• Aesthetic - a drive for balance, harmony and form.
• Economic - a drive for economic or practical returns.
• Individualistic - a drive to stand out as independent and unique.
• Political - a drive to be in control or have influence.
• Altruist - a drive for humanitarian efforts or to help others altruistically.
• Regulatory - a drive to establish order, routine and structure.
• Theoretical - a drive for knowledge, learning and understanding.

The Elements of the Values Index
This Values Index is unique in the marketplace in that it examines seven independent and unique
aspects of value or motivation. Most other values instruments only examine six dimensions of value
by combining the Individualistic and Political into one dimension. The Values Index remains true to
the original works and models of two of the most significant researchers in this field, thus delivering
to you a profile that truly helps you understand your own unique motivations and drivers.
Also, the Values Index is the first to use a click & drag approach to rank the various statements in the
instrument, which makes taking the instrument more intuitive, natural and in the end you can actually

Attribute IndexWHAT natural talents do you have based on how you think and make decisions?
ADVanced Insights Profile Patterns OverviewW
alter Frankel
Copyright 2015 Innermetrix Incorporated • All rights reserved 57
Over fifty years of scientific research has revealed that there are three distinct styles of decision-making.Each of us can make decisions in these three ways, but we tend to develop a preference for one morethan the other two. This preference becomes a subconscious force, affecting the decisions we make ona daily basis and shaping how we perceive the world around us and ourselves.
The three decisional styles are the personal, the practical, and the analytical. These dimensions can beexamined in the form of patterns based on two distinct factors unique to axiology.
The Personal Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the worldfrom a personal point of view, or with concern for the individuals involved. They see people in a unique,individual light and are more concerned about others than the results and theory. This involves a personalinvolvement with, concentration on, or investment in people. To this style, the world is filled with peopleneeding to be understood.
The Practical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see things in verypractical, no nonsense, real-world, task oriented manner. They are more concerned with results thanothers and theory. They see people in comparative ways as they relate to others. To this style, the worldis an objective waiting to be achieved.
The Analytical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the worldfrom a theoretical perspective, more in an abstract way than a concrete one. They see people as partof a system and tend to think in very black and white terms. They are more concerned with thinkingabout things, and analysis than actual results or personal concerns of others. To this style, the world isa problem to be explored and solved.
To some extent we are all capable of making all three kinds of decisions, but our preference tends to befor one more than the other two. Here's a simple example of the three in contrast to each other. Oneof each style are sitting around a table trying to figure out what to do. While the Personal style is focusedon the needs of the workers involved and how best to utilize their talents, the Practical doesn't reallycare as much about the personal needs, or if it is done right, he just wants to get it done. Finally thereis the Analytical who sees no reason to worry about the people involved or even getting it done if it isn'tgoing to be done correctly.

We all have different balances of these three styles; that's what makes our decisions and actions differentfrom each other's. These ways of making decisions, and how we use them, are at the core of who weare. They are behind our preferences, our strengths, and our weaknesses. In the following pages youwill find a list of capacities which are the result of your unique combination of these three decisionalstyles. It is this understanding of your individual strengths and weaknesses that will enable you to affectchange in your life and achieve greater personal success. It is only by first understanding something thatwe are then able to change it.

External Decision Making Pattern SummaryYou are very well developed in all three dimensions of thought (People, Tasks and Systems) and withequal proportion. You can be very competent in all three dimensions of value from schematic thinking,to practicality to valuing others. You appreciate and possess equal strengths in: systems, rules, structure,concrete organization, detailed planning, and people skills.You are a versatile, quick learner in all of these areas. This can also lead to your becoming easily boredor anxious in positions that require excessive over or under focus on any one dimension of thought byitself, to the exclusion of the others (e.g., door to door sales actually requires less than excellent empathy).Overall development levels in all three dimensions are equal and all are highly developed. Level ofdevelopment speaks to your ability to "see" a specific dimension. The more clearly we see a dimensionof thought, the more able we are to use it; therefore the better we are at it.

Internal Decision Making Pattern SummaryYou primarily value or appreciate yourself through your work or primary social roles (business andpersonal). You place most of the emphasis for your self worth on actually doing or performing the workor these primary roles. You do not value yourself as much for your true inner self, regardless of positionor performance, as you could. This can keep you from achieving a much higher level of self esteem orself respect. You also have some questions about where you want to go in the future. Your internalmission statement might appear a little fuzzy to you at this time, which could lead you to become morereactive than proactive. Your overall level of development in the Tasks dimension is high, the highest ofthe three. You have an equal, but moderate, level of development in the people and Systems dimensions.Level of development speaks to your ability to "see" a specific dimension.
