The Complete Experience Workshop Package

WHY ORGANIZATIONS BOOK THE WORKSHOP

One assessment. Four applications. Seven sessions that put them to work.

Imagine you lead a product group of ten: seven specialists, two team leads and a manager you promoted last quarter. The specialists talk past each other in planning meetings. When a deadline slips, one team lead pushes harder and the other goes quiet. Your new manager hands every person the same brief in the same way, and two people on her team have stopped raising problems.

Each of those problems has its own Everything DiSC® application, and most organizations work on them one at a time. The Workshop Package works on all of them with the same group, in one series: a shared language for how each person works, the emotional agility to choose a better response under pressure, and the management skills to adapt to each person on the team.

PURPOSE AND KEY OBJECTIVES

What the workshop is for

Organizations book this workshop for a business reason: friction between people costs money. Misread messages delay projects, reactions under pressure turn disagreements into standoffs, and a manager who directs every person the same way loses time to rework and watches good people disengage or leave.

The purpose of the Workshop Package is to help your people cut those costs, so more of the team's time and energy goes into the results your organization is measured on: productivity, retention and, in the end, profitability.

To get there, by the end of the seven sessions participants will:

Your objectives may differ. Symphony 100 discusses these objectives with you up front. If your team has different priorities, the objectives and the emphasis of the sessions are adjusted to match. Results vary with each team's culture, participation and follow-through: results disclaimer.

WHY A WORKSHOP

Why not just read the reports on your own?

Imagine you lead a ten-person product team. Everyone has taken the assessment and opened their profile. A week later, most people remember their style, a few have explored Catalyst™, and Tuesday's planning meeting runs exactly as before. The team read the reports, but the team's habits did not change.

• A shared conversation instead of ten private readings. The team compares styles together, live, with polls and breakout discussions.
• Practice as well as insight. Guided exercises work on the team's real working relationships, including difficult conversations and feedback.
• A certified facilitator in the room. The facilitator answers questions as they come up and keeps every exercise tied to how your team actually works.
• Follow-through after the sessions. Each participant leaves with post-session resources and an action plan, and Catalyst™ keeps the learning part of everyday work.

FOUR WORKSHOP PACKAGES

THE SEVEN LIVE SESSIONS

Seven sessions, ten and a half hours, four applications put to work

All seven sessions, ten and a half hours in total, run live and online on a private Zoom link and on the Catalyst™ platform, with polls, breakout discussions and application exercises. From time to time, a producer assists the facilitator to keep the delivery smooth and professional. The sessions are typically scheduled one week apart, which leaves time to put each session into practice, so the series keeps its momentum. An optional eighth session, on Your Groups and action planning, can follow.

What each person takes away

WHERE SESSION 1 STARTS

Four styles, one shared language

Everyone is a blend of all four Everything DiSC® styles, and one, two or even three usually stand out. No style is better than another: every style brings strengths, and every style has blind spots. Session 1 shows each participant where they fall and why they react the way they do.

Tap a style to see how it shows up at work:

WHERE SESSIONS 3 AND 4 GO

Most teams know how they react. Few know how to shift.

Imagine you are in a tense planning meeting. Your instinct is to push harder; a colleague goes quiet; a third person starts picking the plan apart. Each reaction makes sense from where that person sits, and none of them moves the meeting forward. Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ helps people recognize when their go-to responses, such as detaching, controlling, or avoiding, no longer serve them, and shows them how to shift toward more valuable responses, such as empathy, self-assurance, or collaboration.

Eight mindsets around the DiSC® circle

Each part of the DiSC® circle is associated with different EQ strengths, called mindsets. No mindset is more valuable than another: the situation decides which one is right. Each learner's profile shows the mindsets that likely come naturally to them and the ones outside their comfort zone.

Tap a mindset to see what it means:

What powers each mindset

Behind every style's EQ strengths are psychological needs: progress and control for some people, harmony and reassurance for others. The poster shows the needs of each style around the DiSC® circle. Each learner's profile includes an EQ snapshot that names their own.

What the Agile EQ™ section of the profile covers

Your EQ strengthsThe mindsets that guide your interactions, the benefits and challenges that come with them, and how they shape your responses.

Beyond your comfort zoneThe mindsets outside your comfort zone, the benefits of stretching to each, and how much effort each stretch is likely to take.

Develop your EQBeginner, intermediate, and advanced steps for each stretch mindset, and an action plan for the one you choose to work on first.

WHERE SESSIONS 5 TO 7 GO

Every manager has a style. Every direct report needs something different.

Imagine you are handing off a new project to two people on your team. One wants the goal and the deadline, and then wants to be left alone. The other wants clear guidelines and to know you will be there if something goes wrong. Give both the same hand-off, and one feels micromanaged while the other feels left on their own. Everything DiSC® Management shows each manager their own management style, and how to adapt their approach to each person they manage.

Three management principles

The Management map

The eight priorities around the circle show what different managers tend to emphasize in their work, and what the people they manage value. Each learner's profile places their dot and comfort zone on this map, then uses it in every part of the Management section.

Tap a part of the profile to see what each style needs:

From the sample Everything DiSC® Management profile. Each part ends with pages on working with each style: you and the D, i, S, and C styles.

What managers take back to their team

Direct and delegateHand off work in the way each person responds to: more autonomy for some, clearer guidelines and support for others.

MotivateBuild an environment where each person finds their own motivation, from public recognition to sincere appreciation.

Develop talentSupport each person's long-term growth by building on their strengths, not only fixing their weaknesses.

Manage upUnderstand their own manager, get buy-in, and speak up for what the team needs.

AFTER THE SESSIONS

Catalyst™ keeps working after the workshop ends

Your Colleagues

Pick any colleague and see your two styles side by side: what you have in common, where you are likely to misread each other, and tips for working together. Learners use it before a first meeting, a handover, or a difficult conversation.

Group Continua

See where each member falls on spectrums such as logic versus feelings, or realities versus possibilities. The group spots its natural tilt and the perspectives it tends to leave out when it decides.

Get Advice

Ask for advice on a real situation, such as building a relationship, working through a tension, or getting buy-in, and receive tips written for your style and the other person's.

Learner privacy

Learners who prefer not to share their style can opt out from the Privacy tab in Catalyst™ and change the setting at any time.

Groups you can build with Your Groups
