Everything DiSC® Agile EQ: Overview and Explanation
The Everything DiSC Agile EQ Assessment, developed by John Wiley & Sons, is a research-validated tool that combines the DiSC personality framework with active emotional intelligence (EQ) development to help individuals navigate workplace interactions with agility. Delivered through the Catalyst™ platform, this 15-20 minute online assessment uses adaptive testing to measure a participant’s DiSC style and eight EQ mindsets, providing a personalized 26-page report with actionable strategies. Unlike traditional EQ assessments that focus on numerical scores, Agile EQ emphasizes practical development, helping participants stretch beyond their comfort zones to respond effectively to diverse social and emotional situations. Supported by over 40 years of DiSC research, it fosters an emotionally intelligent workforce, making it ideal for leadership development, team building, and creating agile organizational cultures.
