You will find a detailed description of these in the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"\/en\/team-report\/\">team analysis<\/a><\/span>.

The basic style indicates your unconscious behaviour. The behaviour you don&#8217;t consciously think about. This is the behaviour you show when you are yourself: when you are relaxed, but also when you are under pressure.<br>The response style indicates the behaviour you think is desirable, for example in the workplace, also called the conscious behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DISC team report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the report, you will find explanations of the 8 different DISC team roles. The aim is to gain insight into the qualities and pitfalls together, both individually and as a team. You will also gain insight into the team&#8217;s distribution of the various DISC styles and team roles. The team report is an interactive workbook you can use with the team. In it, you will find various templates and an action plan, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-small-font-size is-style-outline--70148e004f7af96a3fab7b7f11845dfa\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/old.discboulevard.com\/en\/team-report\/\"><strong>READ MORE ABOUT THE CONTENT OF THE TEAM REPORT<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blogs about team development<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/blogs\/why-team-building-is-beneficial\/\">5 reasons why team building makes absolute sense: The importance of a cohesive team.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.discboulevard.com\/en\/blogs\/improve-work-atmosphere\/\">Improving work ambience?
