DISC COMBINATION · I PRIMARY, S SECONDARY

The Ambassador

The team's friendly face. You read people and keep them together.

What this person is like

An IS holds a crew together with warmth and steadiness. People tell them things. They notice who's struggling before the boss does, and they keep the peace without making a show of it.

The IS combination pairs the Spark energy (energizes the room, sells the vision) with an Anchor streak (steadies the team, keeps the promise).

How to work with an Ambassador

Don't spring change on them cold. Walk them through the why and they'll bring the whole team along.

Hiring an Ambassador (IS)

Excels out front: sales, partnerships, customer-facing work. Check for follow-through before handing them back-office detail. The secondary S means you also get reliable and consistent; interview for it directly instead of assuming.
