The real problem

You're not surrounded by idiots. You're surrounded by people who are wired differently than you.

  • The coworker who takes over every meeting and calls it "being efficient."
  • The friend who shows up 20 minutes late, again, with a great story about why.
  • The team member who says "that's fine" when it clearly isn't.
  • The spouse who needs three more reviews before buying a toaster.

Sound familiar? None of these people are broken. They just see the world through a different style than you do.

Dr. Rohm spent years as an educator and earned a Ph.D. in higher education administration and counseling. Even so, one of his own daughters had him stumped.

So he went looking for answers and found the DISC model: a simple way to see the four basic personality styles. Then he spent the next few decades making it simple and positive, and easy to use at work, at home and at church.

His big idea fits on a sticky note:

“People primarily don't do things against you. They primarily do things for themselves.” Dr. Robert Rohm

Once you see that, you stop taking things so personally. You start speaking their language. And the people who used to drive you up the wall start to make sense.

Meet the four styles
The four styles

Everyone you know fits somewhere on this circle

Tap a color to meet each style. Dr. Rohm uses colors because they stick. Green means go. Red is bright and fun. Blue is calm. Yellow says slow down and check.

D · Green · Outgoing + task-focused

The Dominant style

Green means go. D styles like to lead, decide fast and win. They see the goal and head straight for it.

They want

Results, control and a real challenge.

They can't stand

Wasted time, excuses and a no with no reason.

Talk to them like this

Get to the point. Bottom line first, then options. Don't take the bluntness personally.

At home

The one who plans the vacation, sets the schedule and sets the pace.

Most people are a blend of two styles. Dr. Rohm's full DISC profile shows your exact blend, out of 41 possible combinations.

Why people listen to him

35 years. 2 million people. One simple idea.

Dr. Rohm hosted the PBS special The Model of Human Behavior and has shared the stage with Zig Ziglar, John Maxwell, Les Brown and Lou Holtz. He is often called the most "invited back" speaker.

The World Series ring

In 1996 the Arizona Diamondbacks brought Dr. Rohm in to help them draft players by personality style. In 2001 they won the World Series, and he received a ring inscribed "Fastest Ever." Turns out knowing what makes people tick works on a baseball diamond too.

Good questions

Before you start

Is DISC just another personality test?

Think of it as a language more than a test. DISC doesn't put you in a box or tell you who you can be. It shows how you tend to act and how the people around you tend to act, so you can work with each other instead of against each other. As Dr. Rohm puts it, “Different is not bad, it is just different!”

Is it backed by real research?

Yes. Dr. Rohm's DISC assessment was reviewed and certified by the Assessment Standards Institute, which analyzed more than 12,000 completed assessments. Scores held steady when people retook it (0.82 to 0.84), the scales were consistent (0.85 to 0.91), and it meets the EEOC's 80% guideline for fairness. Read the validity study.

How is this different from the free tests online?

A free test gives you a few letters. It doesn't tell you what to say to your teenager tonight, or how to run a meeting with four different styles in the room. Dr. Rohm's profiles are written in plain English with practical tips you can use right away. They start at $12.95.

Do you work with churches and schools?

All the time. His seminars are built for corporations, small businesses, schools, churches and government agencies. There are adult, teen and child profiles, and he hosts a free monthly Spiritual Teaching Series on Zoom.

Will Dr. Rohm teach my certification class himself?

Live certification classes are taught by certified trainers who use his material. Dr. Rohm himself speaks at events and leads private trainings and retreats. If you want him in the room, book him to speak.

The people in your life probably won't change. How you see them can.
