What are the Cornerstone Principles of Agile EQ?
-
Agile emotional intelligence (EQ) is the ability to read the emotional and interpersonal needs of a situation and respond accordingly.

Your EQ is not fixed. Developing your EQ can improve your interactions, productivity, and outcomes.
-
There are different ways to be emotionally intelligent. Some of these ways will come naturally to you. Others are more of a stretch.
-
DiSC helps you understand the EQ mindsets that come naturally to you and how to stretch to those beyond your comfort zone.

Learning to stretch to different mindsets gives you the agility to adapt your responses to whatever situation you’re facing.

EVERYTHING DISC® AGILE EQ™ CONCEPTS
What does “Agile” mean in the context of Agile EQ?
Within the Agile EQ framework, agility is the ability to recognize the emotional and social needs of a situation and act accordingly. Agility is necessary because (1) different situations call for different responses and (2) some situations call for us to respond in ways that may not be the most intuitive or comfortable for us. Some participants may be used to seeing the word “agile” in the context of software development or project management. In these contexts, the term often refers to a set of practices that break large projects into smaller, iterative initiatives so that cross-functional teams can react quickly to changes. However, in all of these settings (including emotional intelligence), agility is necessary to remain competitive in a professional world that is increasingly interdependent, fluid, and unpredictable.
Is the Everything DiSC® assessment valid and reliable?
Yes. In fact, we only publish Everything DiSC products that have surpassed our strict testing standards and have been proven effective through our iterative design process. Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ is one of a number of assessments within the Everything DiSC family of products. This assessment builds on over 40 years of DiSC® research and knowledge. Specific information related to validity and reliability is available in the Everything DiSC Research Report and the Everything DiSC Manual (in English).
How are Agile EQ mindsets measured?
Each of the eight mindsets are measured using item (i.e., question) responses gathered during the assessment process. This assessment asks participants to respond to statements like “I am even- tempered” on a five-point “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree” scale. The Agile EQ assessment also asks participants to rate how easy or difficult social or emotional tasks are for them on a five-point scale, ranging from “very difficult” to “very easy.” Sample items include “Making small talk with people I barely know,” “Keeping my emotions from showing when I am angry,” and “Standing up to people who are being too aggressive.” These responses are then aggregated to form scales, which are then presented to participants in the effort meter sections of the profile.
Can effort meter scores for the mindsets change?
Yes. Unlike DiSC styles (which, on average, are not expected to change significantly as a function of maturation), a person can become more comfortable with mindsets that are outside their comfort zone and this may be reflected in their effort meter results.
Will my DiSC® style be different in Agile EQ than it is in Workplace or other Everything DiSC® applications?
The assessment items used to determine a person’s DiSC style and dot placement in Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™ are exactly the same as the items used for Everything DiSC Workplace®, Productive Conflict, Management, Sales, or Work of Leaders. Agile EQ also has product-specific assessment items that measure the mindsets. When someone takes the Everything DiSC assessment again, they generally do not answer the questions exactly the same way. The median change that we see is 12 degrees within the circle. So, someone’s dot is bound to move a little, even when the person is taking the same application.
Why does some of my feedback seem to contradict what I know about my DiSC style?
There may be times when a person’s report and narrative feedback do not seem consistent with characteristics typical of their DiSC style. For instance, we know that two people with the D style are not identical. This is because the D style is multidimensional and, therefore, contains correlated but separate elements such as forcefulness, directness, and tough-mindedness. There are times when an individual may demonstrate only two out of three of these characteristics and still be classified as a D style. Unexpected behaviors or mindsets outside of the typical characteristics of a DiSC style help reflect the depth of a person’s individual personality. The Everything DiSC® Supplement for Facilitators can help you identify these unexpected behaviors and is available for any Everything DiSC profile.
