Welcome to part 1 of an 8-episode series exploring the 8 DISC leadership styles: Commanding, Dynamic, Inspiring, Accepting, Accommodating, Modest, Methodical and Perfectionist.
Kicking off the series, your host Julie South, a Certified DISC Coach and Resilience Trainer for veterinary professionals, dives into the hard-driving mindset of Commanding Leaders.
What motivates you at work – an ambitious pace-setter or a patient mentor?
Do rapid-fire decisions ignite your potential or make you want to tune out?

In this actionable first episode, learn how Dominant “D-type" Commanding Leaders:

• Confidently take charge in crisis mode
• Set the pace through rapid decisions
• Motivate and reward drive towards bold goals

You’ll also hear tips on how Commanding Leaders can better interact with every DISC style on their veterinary team from like-minded Dominant colleagues to detail-oriented Compliance members.
