• Welcome and introduction by the trainer
• DISC model and bird species: a brief explanation The DISC model is a tool used to understand and describe behaviour. It categorises people into four main behavioural styles: * **D**ominance: Direct, decisive, results-oriented, and problem-solving personalities. * **I**nfluence: Enthusiastic, optimistic, friendly, and lively personalities. * **S**teadiness: Calm, patient, predictable, and team-oriented personalities. * **C**onscientiousness: Analytical, systematic, precise, and fact-oriented personalities. The "bird species" analogy is a popular way to make the DISC model more accessible and memorable. Each behavioural style is assigned a bird that embodies its characteristics: * **Eagle (D - Dominance):** Eagles are often seen as leaders. They are independent, assertive, and focused on their goals, much like a dominant personality. * **Parrot (I - Influence):** Parrots are known for being social, colourful, and vocal. This aligns with the enthusiastic and outgoing nature of the influence style. * **Dove (S - Steadiness):** Doves are typically perceived as peaceful and gentle. This reflects the calm, supportive, and harmonious approach of the steadiness style. * **Owl (C - Conscientiousness):** Owls are often associated with wisdom and careful observation. Their meticulous and analytical nature corresponds well with the conscientious style. This analogy helps people quickly grasp the core traits of each DISC style by associating them with familiar bird characteristics.
• Teams are created based on DISC colours

Games rounds in colour teams (12:15 - 13:00)

• We're going to get started straight away with interactive games!
• Each game represents a DISC colour and therefore bird species. Think of games such as throwing rings, Mega Yenga, puzzles and Sudokus.

Reflection time (13:00 - 13:45)

• Post-it notes with observations and insights
• Joint discussion: what stood out within the team and other teams

Break (13:45-14:00)

• A break time for all the little birds to catch their breath.

Continuation of theory (14:00 - 14:15)

• Explanation of the DISC axes, what the birds give energy and communication styles

Final round (14:15 - 14:45)

• Teams are mixed so that each team has birds of different colours.
• Games such as Pipe Run, Tangram and Mega Mikado
• A round full of excitement, humour and teamwork

Closing of the afternoon (14:45 - 15:00)

• Short moment of reflection
• Writing down concrete action points for the future
