Our Story
After leading training programs for thousands of small and mid-sized companies, more than two-thirds of the Fortune 100s, non-profit organizations and government agencies, Take Flight Learning reinvented how individuals learn about themselves and the people they encounter.
How it all began…
Take Flight Learning grew out of Team Builders Plus, which was established as one of the first team building companies in the United States in 1991. So, when we say our training programs are interactive, we mean it! At Take Flight Learning, engaging participants isn’t just “turn to a partner, discuss a topic and report out in five minutes.” Our programs get results as participants experience the styles in action and focus on application and behavior change, not just understanding letters.
Based on more than two decades of experience with the DISC model, Take Flight Learning is the leading DISC training company in the US. Then, in 2012, Merrick Rosenberg breathed new life into this age-old model by linking the styles to birds in his books, Taking Flight! and The Chameleon. By linking the four styles to Eagles, Parrots, Doves and Owls and redesigning our training programs to be more brain-friendly and practical, Take Flight Learning reimagined the classic DISC model into what it is today.
Take Flight Learning Today
Unlike most DISC providers who have a single DISC training program, Take Flight Learning offers a variety of DISC training sessions, products, and services. DISC training can be conducted for organizations (including programs for individuals, teams, leaders, salespeople, and educators), trainers (through the Taking Flight with DISC Certification) and in public keynote talks.
If you’d like to learn how to lead DISC training sessions on your own, we can certify you and provide you with all the materials, from the assessments and facilitator guides to workbooks and supplementary books to reinforce the training. If you’d like to bring expert facilitators into your organization to deliver the training, you will discover why our trainers regularly hear, ‘That was the best training program I’ve ever been to.’
Participants emerge from Take Flight Learning training programs with a wide range of strategies for maximizing their own strengths and the ability to recognize the unique contribution each DISC style brings to the workplace.
