Biaxial Model of DISC

AssertivenessPassivityOpennessControl

Assertiveness Assertive people are pro-active and direct. They lead rather than follow, and like to take immediate action whenever they can. They believe in grasping opportunities and making their own way. Often independent and commanding, they prefer to give orders rather than take them, and will issue instructions rather than ask for cooperation.

Biaxial Model of DISC Passivity Passivity The opposite of Assertiveness, Passivity describes people who are patient and cautious. They prefer to avoid taking risks, and rarely take definitive action unless the pressure to do so is unavoidable. They dislike change or surprise, and will seek calm, predictable situations.

Biaxial Model of DISC Openness Extremely Open people are friendly, trusting and ingenuous. They express themselves easily and value strong relationships with other people. Open individuals tend to work on an emotional level, revealing their feelings to others and being ready to sympathise with those around them.

Biaxial Model of DISC Control Controlled individuals are practical and somewhat cynical in style. They value hard facts and rational argument above emotional considerations, and prefer to follow their own ideas, rather than rely on other people. At times, they can be distrustful or suspicious, and will rarely volunteer information about themselves to other people.
