into four basic styles. Everyone possesses the qualities of each style
to various degrees and everyone has a dominant style. They are:

- Relater
- Thinker
Coach Considerations:
I firmly believe that this is THE tool for coaches: no set-up or
distributor charges, easy to master, cost effective, built in multi-rater format and
simple to administer. You can use this with team and generate a team

The
Disc Style System 
Retails
for $69.95US
Special Features: Completely online. You have thirty days to have
others complete this on you anonymously. At the end of this time you
get a full report with a comparison of how you see yourself compared to
others.
Coach Considerations: This
a somewhat more complicated system than the Platinum Rule and requires
training in the use of DISC.
The DISC is the universal language of behavior.
Research has shown that behavioral characteristics can be grouped together
in four major divisions called personality styles. People with similar
styles tend to exhibit specific behavioral characteristics common to that
style. All people share these four styles in varying degrees of intensity.
The acronym DISC stands for the four personality styles represented by the
letters: D (Drive), I (Influence), S (Steadiness), and C (Compliance).
FIRO-B
Special
Features: Completely online.
You can download a 13 page report.
The FIRO-B is a powerful
instrument that assesses how personal needs affect an individual's
behavior toward other people. It offers insights into an individual's
compatibility with other people, as well as into his or her individual
characteristics. This information can help an individual maximize the
impact of his actions, recognize options for increasing job
satisfaction and productivity, and explore alternate ways to achieve
goals.
Coach Considerations:
Must be qualified to purchase level B instruments.
MBTI
- Form Q Interpretive and coaching debrief
Special Features: Completely online. 
You will receive an 18 page report.
The MBTI is designed to help you
become aware of your particular gifts as well as pointing out areas in
need of improvement. Through this process, you gain an understanding
and appreciation of the ways in which people are different.
Giving an in-depth, personalized account of an individual’s
personality preferences, the MBTI provides a report of personality
type and secondly, gives an indication of the unique way individuals
express their preferences. Differences in people's behavior are
actually a result of each person having preferences for particular
ways of perceiving and judging.
Coach Considerations:
Must be qualified to purchase level B instruments which is usually
done by completing a minimum four day training.
The Personality
SystemRegularly
$19.95US - yours for 25% less
Special Features: Completely online. You will
receive a 22 page report.
This online system
identifies an individual's personality style, D, I, S, or C by using a
simple 24-question profile (takes only 7-minutes!) and helps provide
understanding to the differences in people, providing a personal review of
each individual's strengths and limitations, and gives an action plan to
improve relationships. This profile utilizes three-graph analysis.
Coach Considerations:
There is an administrator site for coaches and costs are very reasonable.
The
Personal Style Indicator
Regularly
$19.95US - yours for 25% less
The Personal
Style Indicator™ is a fun, fast-paced tool that helps you better
understand your own personality style and how it “fits” in the world
around you. It is not a test that can be passed or failed. In fact, it’s
completely self-administered and self-scoring – no one needs to know its
answers but you! Similar to the DISC, this tool is an interesting
variation on the concepts of extroversion and introversion.
Coach Considerations:
There is no administrator site for coaches. The data must be provided
by the client.
DiSC
and or PIAV  
Special Features:
Each 24 page report makes up a powerful full self assessment package.
The DiSC is the mostly widely used and accepted assessment tool next
to the MBTI. Both tools are based on sound theories and
models. They are behavioural in nature and considered highly reliable
and valid. The PIAV (Personal Interest Attitudes and
Values) is one of the few accessible instruments that looks at
attitudes/values. In other words, it helps you to truly
determine the best working environment for you.
Coach Considerations:
Whether you go with Inscape or TTI, as I have, there is a major outlay
to become a distributor. On-line assess has an additional charge.
I have found two other on-line versions that I feel have better value for
your investment.

Discloser:
I am not a trained psychologist. I have
received training in at lest half of the tools mentioned above - most
formally. Some of the instruments are self taught but I have
used all of them professionally at one time or another.
I am qualified to purchase many of these tools and
instruments directly from the publishers. I did purchase a
distributorship for
TTI Performance Systems as it was the only way I could purchase a
specific instrument that interested me. I am also own the
