Introduction
THDiSC is a personality test that is based on the work of Dr William Moulton Marston and
was effectively created by Walter Vernon Clarke in 1956, based on the theory set by Dr
Marston. Dr Marston was a lawyer and industrial psychologist, who was also credited with
the invention of the Polygraph (Poulopoulos, Vassilakis, Antoniou, Lepouras,
Theodoropoulos and Wallace, 2018).
There are four traits that are taken in the DiSC assessment, which is commonly used in
managerial levels. The four levels are Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and
Conscientiousness (Denphaisarn, 2014).
Strengths of Team Members
According to the report, there are two team members who are moderately inclined in iD style,
and one team member each that are strongly inclined to I style, and C style. There is one
member who has an SC style, and one member who has an iS style.
The report indicates that a majority of the team members have I influenced personalities. This
would mean that they are extroverts and opinionated. Their personalities would also reflect
on the team and become the team’s strong points. Many of the team members are
enthusiastic, impulsive, talkative and emotional (Chen, Tsai and Chen, 2016). Thus, the like
working together in a team, which could be the major strengths of the team.
The other two dominant personality traits are the S trait, which is for steadiness, and the C
trait, which is for Conscientiousness. People with the S trait are steady, even-tempered,
friendly and sympathetic, which also make them great team players as well. People with the
C trait are accurate, precise and detail-oriented, which can help balance out some of the
issues of the I trait. They have high standards and are good problem-solvers and very creative
in the work that they do (Kim and Yang, 2016).
