AMA Disc Survey (Special)

AMA -- and every other training organization -- has encouraged seminar participants to fill out a "personal styles survey" that focuses on the ways people approach their work and relate to others within their organization. Now, AMA has a survey of its own and one that is superior to the competition in several key respects!

This new instrument measures four basic behavioral styles. The survey explains that each of these "personality types" has its strong points, as well as possible weaknesses. In this regard, The AMA DISC Survey is ideally suited for programs directed toward:

• Personal development
• Problem solving and decision making
• Time management
• Interpersonal relations
• Conflict management
• Team building
• Organizational change

The AMA DISC Survey is accompanied by a Debriefing Guide that can be used to facilitate discussion, interpretation, and application of the survey results. The Debriefing Guide consists of seven interactive modules that each take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The modules guide respondents in:

• Understanding their personal styles and combination of styles
• Analyzing the causes and effects of their styles
• Identifying strategies for modifying their styles in ways that will enhance their personal and interpersonal effectiveness

Most of the modules are self-contained and therefore allow the program facilitator or the respondent to pick and choose the modules to focus on. The modules can also be used as the basis for various group activities, as described in The AMA DISC Survey Facilitator's Manual.
