Everything DiSC on Catalyst
Personalized, interactive, actionable
Introducing Catalyst
Many of our customers and Everything DiSC practitioners are moving their Everything DiSC learners to the Catalyst platform, or starting them there. Why? Because Catalyst is a better DiSC experience for the learner and a more flexible platform for the facilitator.

The Catalyst learning experience
The Catalyst™ learning experience is designed for the emerging trend toward shorter, more bite-sized learning sessions. Instead of the traditional “one-and-done” training event, Everything DiSC on Catalyst is modular, extending training over a longer period of time—which is more effective for producing long-term behavior change.
There are four parts to the Catalyst learning experience: the Everything DiSC assessment; a personalized, mobile-enabled narrative; an optional, instructor-facilitated experience (virtual or in person); and powerful follow-up tools.
Part 1: The assessment
Participants begin with a proprietary, computer-adaptive assessment that uncovers their DiSC styles and starts the process of raising behavioral self-awareness and understanding.
Everything DiSC on Catalyst starts with the Everything DiSC Workplace assessment. While the base assessment is the same, Catalyst provides additional features that help your teams connect and build workplace culture.
Part 2: The narrative report
The assessment results are translated into a personalized narrative that’s easily accessible on the Catalyst platform. Each participant’s DiSC style is described in detail—beginning the process of social and emotional skills growth. In Catalyst, learners can also compare their DiSC style with their colleagues—along with receiving extensive tips for improving interactions and working relationships. They can also create and save groups to shed light on team dynamics that impact performance.
Part 3: The facilitator experience
To further drive home the lessons of the Catalyst experience, facilitator tools support virtual or in-person training. Facilitators can meet learners where they’re most comfortable—on their own devices and in their own time. They can also assign pre- or post-session work on Catalyst and walk through features together, one-on-one or in a group.
Part 4: Follow-up tools
Presentations, videos, and other dynamic teaching tools help the lessons stick and make the benefits of the Catalyst experience a lasting part of your organizational culture.
A more effective approach to learning
In today’s workplace, few people have time for formal, all-day training sessions. That’s why the Everything DiSC facilitation experience on Catalyst is condensed into modules that can be done in any order and with a small or large group.
Immediately relevant to everyday life
Catalyst allows participants to compare their DiSC styles to their colleagues’ styles in real time, so they can improve their working relationships while they’re occurring.
Profiles that don’t get filed away.
We’re seeing 74% of learners returning to the Catalyst site. The ability to compare their style with others in the “Your Colleagues” and “Your Groups” sections brings them back again and again.
Tools for groups and colleagues
Catalyst offers simple, interactive tools for learners to visualize their style in relation to others and understand what this means for working well together.
Your Colleagues
In the Your Colleagues section in Catalyst, users can:
- Learn their colleagues’ strengths, when to pull them into a project, and what stresses them out
- Compare preferences and tendencies across a range of workplace behaviors using the DiSC model
- Gain access to tips that help them work better together in a variety of situations
Many Catalyst users review this section before heading into a meeting or kicking off a new project with a coworker.
Your Groups
The Your Groups feature invites learners to:
- Create and save groups that reflect their workday
- Plot each member of their team on the Group Map
- Get to know their teammates with Style Insights
- Shed light on group dynamics with Group Insights
- View eight different Group Continua to quickly visualize the group’s dynamics on behavioral scales such as tactful versus frank, logic-focused versus feelings-focused, etc.
Get Advice
In the Get Advice section, learners can select a colleague and view personalized insights and practical strategies for connecting, collaborating, getting buy-in, and managing tension with that person. This helps learners apply DiSC to the real-world social situations they face every day.
Conversation Starters
Conversation Starters extend DiSC beyond the training session to help teams build cohesion and improve performance. This high-impact feature combines DiSC with simple discussion guides, equipping teams to talk about personality-based differences and how they affect group performance—culminating in clear action steps for the future.
These tools give teams a shared language for safe conversations about differences, helping them reach new levels of performance.
Customer testimonial
We have used Everything DiSC assessments for years, but Catalyst has helped drive the conversation and bridge the gap by giving people a common language and space to get started with building relationships, even if its over the phone, through e-mail, or on video calls. Our employees often reference Catalyst before a call to gain insight into how to make the most of their meeting.
