Behavioral Assessment Tools

Assessment Tools That Extend Learning Beyond the Experience

That’s why we offer industry-respected behavioral assessment tools that deepen self-awareness, strengthen team communication, and help insights live well beyond the day participants spend with us.

Our assessment tools can be delivered independently or integrated directly into one of our experiential programs. While assessments are valuable on their own, we strongly recommend using them in conjunction with a Signature Teambuilding experience to maximize relevance, engagement, and long-term impact.

Why Use Behavioral Assessments?

Behavioral assessments provide a shared language for understanding how individuals prefer to communicate, make decisions, manage stress, and work with others. When combined with experiential learning, assessments help participants:

1. Increase self-awareness and emotional intelligence
2. Understand how different work styles impact team performance
3. Reduce miscommunication and unproductive conflict
4. Apply insights directly to real workplace situations
5. Sustain learning long after the program concludes

Rather than abstract theory, participants see their assessment results come to life through action, reflection, and guided facilitation.

Our Assessment Tools

DiSC® on Catalyst™

DiSC® is one of the most widely used behavioral frameworks in the world. It focuses on observable behavior and communication styles, helping individuals understand both themselves and others more effectively.

What DiSC Measures

1. D – Dominance: Pace, assertiveness, and approach to challenges
2. i – Influence: Communication style, collaboration, and enthusiasm
3. S – Steadiness: Consistency, patience, and support of others
4. C – Conscientiousness: Attention to detail, quality, and structure

Why We Use DiSC

1. Easy to understand and apply immediately
2. Creates a common language across teams and organizations
3. Highly effective for improving communication, collaboration, and leadership

Catalyst Platform Advantage
DiSC on Catalyst provides a modern, cloud-based experience where participants:

2. Compare styles with teammates
3. Participate in follow-up learning and reflection activities
4. Continue applying insights well after the program

My HardWired®

My HardWired focuses on core behavioral wiring—how individuals naturally respond under pressure, make decisions, and interact with others when stakes are high.

What My HardWired Reveals

1. Natural problem-solving tendencies
2. Stress responses and blind spots
3. How individuals show up when things don’t go as planned
4. Interpersonal dynamics that impact trust and execution

Why We Use My HardWired

1. Especially powerful for leadership, high-accountability teams, and operational environments
2. Goes beyond surface behavior to explore deeper patterns
3. Creates meaningful “aha” moments that drive lasting change

This assessment is particularly effective when paired with programs that surface real-time pressure, ambiguity, and collaboration challenges. 

Assessments + Experiential Learning = Lasting Impact

When assessments are integrated into one of our programs—such as Shifting Gears, WaterWorx, Expedition Antarctica, TeamQuest, or APEX Team Challenge—participants don’t just talk about behavior, they experience it.

Facilitated debriefs help teams:

1. Connect assessment insights to observed behaviors during the activity
2. Translate learning directly to workplace challenges
3. Identify personal and team commitments for improvement

This integration ensures learning is relevant, memorable, and actionable.

Flexible Delivery Options

Our assessments can be delivered:

1. As a stand-alone offering
2. In conjunction with any Signature Teambuilding program
3. In person or virtually
4. For intact teams, leadership groups, or cross-functional audiences

We work with each client to determine the best approach based on goals, timeframes, and audience.

Our Recommendation

While assessments are valuable on their own, we believe they are most impactful when paired with experiential learning. Combining action, reflection, and assessment data creates a learning experience that continues to influence behavior long after the event concludes.
