High-Performing Organizations Start with Effective Managers

Short narrative (not stats-heavy, but grounded):

  • Managers drive engagement, performance, and retention

  • Most receive DiSC® insight—but struggle to apply it consistently

  • Without support, results vary by manager instead of scaling across the organization

That’s where Everything DiSC® Worksmart on Catalyst™ comes in.

What is Everything DiSC® Worksmart?

Everything DiSC® Worksmart is a modular learning experience that helps managers apply DiSC® insights to real leadership moments—feedback, conflict, motivation, and change—directly within Catalyst™.

  • Designed specifically for managers
  • Practical, conversation-focused
  • Personalized using DiSC® styles
  • Embedded in Catalyst™ for ongoing use

Five Focused Modules That Help Managers Apply DiSC®

Five focused, one-hour modules and custom action plans help managers apply DiSC® insights to real leadership moments—strengthening feedback, navigating conflict, motivating teams, and leading change at scale.

From Insight to Action

Everything DiSC® Worksmart is designed to sit squarely between understanding and sustained performance.

While Everything DiSC® helps people understand themselves and others, Worksmart focuses on what managers do differently, how they prepare for conversations, adapt their approach, and respond effectively in everyday leadership moments.

Worksmart is delivered through Catalyst™, making it easy for managers to:

  • Revisit insights when they matter most

  • Compare styles before important conversations

  • Apply DiSC® consistently across teams and situations

The result is a clear progression:

How We Use Worksmart with Clients

At Inspired Engagement, Worksmart is rarely used in isolation, and intentionally so.

We most often integrate Worksmart as part of a broader leadership or culture initiative, ensuring that learning is reinforced, applied, and sustained over time. Depending on your goals, Worksmart can be implemented as:

  • A follow-on experience for organizations already using DiSC®

  • A core component of manager development programs

  • A practical application layer alongside Catalyst™, coaching, or facilitated sessions

We help organizations decide when, how, and with whom Worksmart will have the greatest impact, so it supports real behavior change, not just participation
