DISC and Halloween Costumes

, ,

For some, putting together a Halloween costume takes a lot of thought and preparation. For others, not so much. So, what does the DiSC profile have to say about your creepy yet cool costume?

If you are a strong D, you have a desire for control or dominance. A superhero character, like Wonder Woman, works for you as she exhibits power and strength. You might also dress up as a Monster, King, Queen or Soldier because these demonstrate someone who enjoys being in charge.

If you are a strong I, you are a strong influencer and enjoy a funny and entertaining costume that you often whip together at the last minute! You will also enjoy telling people how you came up with the costume. You enjoy having fun and will wear an outfit that flatters you, maybe even some glitz and glitter… if it grabs positive attention.

If you are a strong S, you are steady and enjoy stability. You have your “tried and true” costumes and don’t like to stand out. However, because you enjoy being on a team, you are open to wearing a group-themed costume. You are even willing to make the costumes if you are given enough direction and time, and people don’t change things once you get started.

If you are a strong C, you are conscientious and will spend time planning your costume, down to the tiniest detail. You know that the perfect costume didn’t appear overnight and you want it to be flawless. Some popular C costumes are detectives, scientists, or even Spock…if the C can get all the details right.
