Tony Alessandra says, “If you’re a manager, you should be very aware of your management style and how it can affect others. Being conscious of the extremes of your behavioral type will allow you to work moreeffectively with your direct reports, and transform from just a boss into a true leader.

But before you do that, you’ll need to identify your management style. I espouse using the DiSC behavioral assessment, but other popular tests will work as well.

DiSC is an acronym for the four primary behavioral drivers: dominance, influence, conscientiousness, and steadiness. Dominant people are decisive risk-takers who speak boldly and confidently. Those driven by influence are apt to intertwine emotion with work, and they’re interested in forming social bonds. People bent towards conscientiousness prioritize accuracy and precision”.
