Will 2 High D’s Get Along?

Last but never least in our four part series of DISC highs and low style interaction is the D!

Dominance – how one handles problems and challenges.

High D – High D
High D – Low D
Low D – Low D
  • High D’s share an appreciation of each other’s driven nature, are results oriented and both have an inherent need to direct.
  • Since the High D loves a challenge, you can expect the discussions to be intense and focused upon challenging the status quo.
  • The high D may have a tendency to overwhelm the low D.
  • The high D will need to create a safe environmentand give the low D some time to think things through and process the request or information given.
  • Two low D’s will work well together. Both share a need to gather their facts before making a decision.
  • They may need to be more proactive when challenging each other.  In other words, they may be too timid to disagree with each other.
