Step 1

EXPLORE YOUR STRENGTHS AND PREFERENCES

Take the DISC behavioral assessment. Shortly after you finish, you’ll get an email with a personalized Career Management Report. This analysis will give you a better understanding of your strengths and your behavior, and how to use this knowledge. After you’ve taken the assessment and reviewed your report, these DISC Training Videos will help you benefit from your new knowledge and perspective.

Step 2

DISCOVER AND DEVELOP CORE VALUES

Take the 60-minute, on-demand course “Discovering and Developing Core Values,”presented by Robert Glazer. Bob is a #1 Wall Street Journal, USA Today and international bestselling author of four books, and his writing reaches over five million people around the globe each year. His video instruction and the accompanying exercises help you find the principles that guide your decision making. You’ll then learn how to refine and apply them.
