    Hiring Smarter: How DISC Helps Small Businesses Build Better Teams

    In this solo episode of Well Coached, Chris explores how small business owners can use DISC to make smarter hiring decisions and build stronger, more balanced teams. Hiring is not just about finding someone with the right experience. It is also about understanding how a person communicates, solves problems, handles pressure, and fits into the role and team around them. Chris explains how DISC can give leaders a clearer view of a candidate’s natural behavioral style and help them determine whether that style supports the actual needs of the position. Throughout the episode, Chris unpacks how each DISC style can bring value to a business, from fast-moving results-driven leaders to relationship-builders, steady team players, and detail-focused operators. He also shows why no style is “better” than another - the key is knowing what the role requires and hiring with more clarity, intention, and alignment. This episode is a practical guide for small business owners who want to move beyond gut-feel hiring and start building teams that communicate better, work smarter, and support the business long-term. What You’ll Learn in This Episode How DISC can help small business owners better understand candidates and team dynamics Why hiring for behavioral fit matters as much as hiring for skill or experience How different DISC styles can support different roles inside a growing business How to use DISC as a tool for clarity, alignment, and better long-term hiring decisions Learn more about your ad choices.

    Why Your Team Isn’t Listening: Using DISC to Communicate

    In this solo episode of Well Coached, Chris breaks down one of the most practical tools he uses with business owners and teams: the DISC profile. If you’ve ever wondered why an employee does not seem to follow direction, why a client needs so many details, or why a manager feels overwhelmed by change, the issue may not be bad intentions, it may be a communication mismatch. Chris explains how DISC helps leaders understand the different ways people communicate, process information, and respond to their environment. Throughout the episode, Chris walks through the four DISC styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness, and explains how each style hears the same message differently. He also shares practical ways to adjust your leadership communication so your team receives direction with more clarity, less conflict, and better follow-through. This episode is a practical look at how leaders can stop treating everyone the same and start communicating in a way that actually connects. What You’ll Learn in This Episode How DISC helps leaders understand different communication and behavioral styles Why workplace conflict is often caused by communication mismatches, not bad intentions How to lead D, I, S, & C styles with more clarity and effectiveness Why adapting your communication style can help your team listen, respond, and perform better Learn more about your ad choices.
