DISC: Better Communication, Better Decisions
Put the personality back into your business, so your team communicates clearly, makes better decisions, and stops costing you time (and HR headaches).
For teams who want a shared language for behaviour, communication, and decision-making, so work gets easier, not heavier.
Based in the East Midlands. Individual sessions online or in-person; group session in-person.

This is for you if…
-
You’ve got capable people, but they’re not pulling in the same direction.
-
Miscommunication is creating mistakes, rework, and avoidable tension.
-
Decisions are slower than they should be (and somehow still come back to you).
-
Small misunderstandings keep escalating into “we need HR involved”.
-
You’re tired of guessing how to motivate different personalities, and you want a shared language your team can actually use.
Your real now (and why it’s expensive)
When a team doesn’t understand behaviour styles, you don’t just get “a bit of friction”… you get:
-
Conversations that land badly (even when intentions are good)
-
Avoidable mistakes caused by assumptions and crossed wires
-
Slower, lower-quality decision making
-
Project teams that disengage or quietly opt out
-
Higher staff turnover, and the hidden cost that comes with it
If improved retention saves you even one mid-level hire, you could be protecting ~£35,000 in recruitment fees, downtime, induction, and training (based on average 2026 UK salary for a mid-level employee with 3–7 years’ experience).
And if you’re the leader, it often shows up as this invisible job you never applied for: full-time Team Translator, the person who’s constantly:
-
Rewording messages so they land
-
Softening blunt feedback (or sharpening vague feedback)
-
Translating “big picture” into “what do you want me to do today?”
-
Mediating tension that shouldn’t need mediating
…you don’t have a “communication problem.”
You have a behaviour styles problem, and the fix is giving the whole team a shared language, not relying on you to translate forever.

What you want instead
You want a team that:
-
Communicates clearly (without someone constantly translating)
-
Understands how different people need information
-
Makes better decisions, faster
-
Works through tension early, before it becomes expensive
-
Feels aligned, engaged, and committed to the same goals
And you want to get your time back, so you can lead the business, not spend your week translating people to each other.
Hi, I’m Sophie, and this is what I do
I’m Sophie Dyer, a strategic thinking partner and facilitator based in
Loughborough. I help leaders and teams move from miscommunication,
friction, and slow decisions to clarity, collaboration, and confident execution,
using DISC behavioural profiling as a practical, non-judgemental tool.
This isn’t a generic “here’s your label, good luck” personality test.
It’s a structured, human process that helps people understand:
-
how they naturally communicate
-
what they do under pressure
-
what they need from others to do their best work
…and then turns that insight into team-level agreements you can actually use.
What this is
DISC: Better Conversations, Better Decisions is a practical DISC profiling package:
Individual DISC profiles + 1:1 feedback, followed by a Group Dynamics report and a facilitated team feedback session.
It’s designed to turn “personality insights” into day-to-day changes in communication, decision-making, and collaboration.
What’s included
1. Individual DISC Profile + 1:1 Feedback (per person)
£125 per participant
Each person gets:
-
A 7-minute DISC questionnaire to complete
-
A 45–60 minute 1:1 feedback session (online or in-person)
-
A digital individual profile report to keep
Why this matters: people stop guessing what they “should” be like and start understanding how they naturally show up, including blind spots, stress behaviours, and communication preferences.
2. Group Dynamics Report + Team Feedback Session
£400–£500 per team (dependent on group size; typically 6–12 participants)
Your team gets:
-
A digital Group Dynamics report to keep
-
A 60–90 minute in-person group feedback session (East Midlands)
-
Tailoring to a specific need/challenge (if required)
-
Option to run the session off-site if requested
Why this matters: this is where the “aha” moments become team-level agreements, clearer communication, fewer misunderstandings, and better decisions.
3. Briefing Conversation (no charge)
Before anything starts, we’ll have a briefing conversation to agree:
-
Venue / logistics
-
Time constraints
-
Any specific needs or challenges you want the session to address
No charge (but worth £50–100 in value) because it ensures the work is relevant, realistic, and immediately useful.
Outcomes you can expect
This work is designed to help you achieve:
-
Reduced friction that escalates into costly HR involvement
-
Reduced miscommunication that leads to mistakes and rework
-
Better quality decision making for more profitable outcomes
-
More engaged project team members striving toward the same goals
-
Improved staff retention (and the significant cost savings that come with it)
What it costs (example)
Pricing is simple:
-
£125 per participant (individual profile + 1:1 feedback)
-
Plus the group session (£400–£500)
Example: 10 participants £125 × 10 = £1,250 Group session (example) = £500 Total package: £1,750
Delivery is typically spread across 4–12 weeks, depending on availability and what you want to achieve.

Why this works (and why it’s not “just a personality test”)
DISC isn’t helpful because it gives someone a label.
It’s helpful because it gives your team:
-
A shared language for behaviour
-
A way to spot stress patterns before they blow up
-
A clearer understanding of what different people need to communicate well
So instead of you translating, smoothing, and firefighting… the team starts catching themselves and adjusting in real time.
And crucially, it helps you move from “we keep having the same issues” to “we know what to do when this happens.”

What past clients have said
Justin, Premier Logistics. “Thanks so much for the session on Monday, I really enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. Understanding my own traits better has already helped me think about how I word things and approach conversations differently… it’s helping me understand how to communicate with them more effectively. Overall, it was a great session and I’m looking forward to putting what I’ve learned into practice with the team.”
Mark Harris. “I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect… I figured it would be one of those things where you get a generic label and move on. It wasn’t that. …seeing your blind spots laid out in front of you, clearly and without judgement, is something else entirely. Sophie has a real gift for taking what could easily be dry, theoretical stuff and making it feel genuinely useful and relevant… If you’re a business owner who wants to understand yourself better, lead more effectively, or just stop wondering why certain conversations feel like hard work, I’d strongly recommend a session with Sophie.”
