August is when many teams are hiring, restructuring, or trying to fill gaps quickly. That pressure makes it easier to miss the behavioural signals that shape whether someone will actually work well in the role. In this live session, former intelligence officer and human behaviour expert JJ Brun (The Retired Spy) will show you how DISC can help you catch those signals earlier.
If you’re tired of finding out the real fit too late, this session will give you a more useful way to assess what the resume and interview can’t fully show.

HR professional who wants to make stronger hiring decisions with fewer surprises after onboarding.
People & Culture professional who wants better tools for assessing behavioural fit and team compatibility.
Recruiter, talent advisor, or HR consultant who wants to improve retention by hiring with more precision.

The hiring decision does not end with the offer. It continues into onboarding, team trust, manager energy, and retention.
DISC helps you bring those realities into the process earlier. You start to see how a candidate may affect communication, pace, pressure, and overall fit once the work starts.
That gives you a more practical way to hire for long-term alignment instead of immediate convenience.
