Testimonial Ashley said; Had I not participated in DISC and been prompted in such a masterful way by Dr Sawyer to really consider the results, and what I honestly wanted for myself (both professionally and personally), I am confident that I would have quit my job only to find another position where I would have inevitably run into the same road-blocks. DISC helped show me exactly where I was and thus empowered me to take control of my life and the role I want to play in it so that I can be even more successful and confident doing whatever I choose for myself. I was able to identify the communication styles in my colleagues and social circles, thus allowing me to better navigate those relationships to help build healthier and more productive environments for everyone.

Testimonial Laura (mother) said: I wanted to learn how to identify and focus my thinking in order to turn goals into reality. Identifying goals and going through the process of seeing what I will achieve made my goals real and attainable. Not only was the workshop beneficial for me, but my daughters, ages seven and eleven, benefited from going through the process. I wanted them to attend the workshop to teach them how to identify and think about their goals, with a process that they could use their whole life. The girls both enjoyed going through the steps of the workshop; they discovered that writing can help you set your goals, and seeing what you want can make it happen! |
