Using your DISC Career
Management Report

If your professor has chosen for you to complete this module as part of your class, you will have received your DISC Career Management Report from reports@athleteassessments1.com. Now, let’s go through how to best use it.

Introduction to the DISC Career Management Report

Finding your career direction begins in defining a critical element – your behavioral style. Research suggests that specific behavioral styles are attracted to specific jobs and careers. Understanding your career choices and applying this knowledge for job satisfaction consists of three basic steps:

  1. Knowing your natural behavioral tendencies,
  2. Determining the behavioral demands of the job,
  3. Understanding the results of adapting your natural style to ‘fit’ the job’s needs, OR selecting the career or jobs that require your natural style, or both.

We start with your DISC Profile Report to provide significant insight into your behavioral style and tendencies. Then, this DISC Career Management Report provides a list of occupations and the O*NET (Job) Codes that utilize the behaviors that are the closest match to your natural behavioral style.

DISC Career Report_Job Indicator Page

The Job Indicator Section (shown on the left) has been designed to give you a guide as to suitable jobs which theoretically meet your unique DISC behavioral style. Be aware that when looking at these jobs, a quality ‘job fit’ usually occurs when 75% of the job behaviors and tasks match your DISC behavioral style. The other 25% of the job behaviors or task requirements represent opportunities to adapt. This is important as there are few jobs that are a 100% perfect fit for people. Most learn that every job requires us to adapt our behaviors to deliver the best outcomes for the organization and fulfillment for the person doing the job.

This will help you understand the kinds of roles where your natural style aligns with the demands of them, or where you might need to adapt your behaviors to suit other roles you are most interested in pursuing. This report clarifies job expectations, discovers the reasons for challenges, and helps in understanding potential stressors.

This report is as much prescriptive (tips and tools for interpersonal career management) as it is descriptive (allowing you to understand and appreciate your own behavioral style from this report and your DISC Profile Report).

This report does not assign personal values, interests, aptitude, IQ, or work history. It’s not about confining you to certain roles, but instead it’s about exploring how behaviors relate to different jobs and industries, to further build your awareness. The DISC Career Management Report concentrates on your behavior and helps you to recognize the preferences and strengths you bring to a job. 

Use this tool to breakdown the requirements of different roles you are interested in, and form a plan to perform most effectively within them. Please ensure to also refer to your accompanying DISC Profile Report.
