 your OCEAN personality profile analysis results

In order to interpret your raw trait scores, they were compared to a sample of millions of people, who have to completed the full myPersonality Big Five questionnaire. This allows the way you describe yourself to be put in the context of how other people responded to the questionnaire. You should remember that there are no fundamentally good or bad personalities, as each trait description has both potential advantages and disadvantages.

your DISC personality profile analysis results

Some companies use the DISC assessment as a way to screen potential employees, with the thought that a certain personality type would be better or worse in certain jobs or positions.[4] This is not what the disc Assessment was initially designed for. Disc is a tool to get to know oneself , others and behaviour in interpersonal situations better.

The best use of disc is to learn more about yourself, others and how to deal in situations where interpersonal relationships are involved. Some more specific versions of the disc assessment will help understand how one person would be likely to react in specific team, management or leadership situations, given her or his disc style.

The assessment has been used to determine leadership. There are different leadership methods and styles that coincide with each personality type, which could help leaders be more effective.

How schools
kill creativity

Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity. Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we’re educating our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence.

Bring on the
learning revolution!

In this poignant, funny follow-up to his fabled 2006 talk, Sir Ken Robinson makes the case for a radical shift from standardised schools to personalised learning — creating conditions where kids’ natural talents can flourish.

How to escape
education’s
death valley

Sir Ken Robinson outlines 3 principles crucial for the human mind to flourish — and how current education culture works against them. In a funny, stirring talk he tells us how to get out of the educational “death valley” we now face, and how to nurture our youngest generations with a climate of possibility.

The big idea for data
inspired by illness

When Jamie Heywood’s brother was diagnosed with ALS, he devoted his life to fighting the disease as well. The Heywood brothers built an ingenious website where people share and track data on their illnesses — and they discovered that the collective data had enormous power to comfort, explain and predict.

Teach statistics before calculus!

Arthur Benjamin: Someone always asks the math teacher, “Am I going to use calculus in real life?” And for most of us, says Arthur Benjamin, the answer is no. He offers a bold proposal on how to make math education relevant in the digital age.

Let’s use video to reinvent education

Salman Khan talks about how and why he created the remarkable Khan Academy, a carefully structured series of educational videos offering complete curricula in math and, now, other subjects. He calls for teachers to consider flipping the traditional classroom script — give students video lectures to watch at home, and do “homework” in the classroom with the teacher available to help.

The happy secret
to better work

Shawn Achor is the CEO of Good Think Inc., where he researches and teaches about positive psychology. We believe that we should work to be happy, but could that be backwards? In this fast-moving and entertaining talk, psychologist Shawn Achor argues that actually happiness inspires productivity.

The beauty of
data visualisation

David McCandless turns complex data sets (like worldwide military spending, media buzz, Facebook status updates) into beautiful, simple diagrams that tease out unseen patterns and connections. Good design, he suggests, is the best way to navigate information glut — and it may just change the way we see the world.

The rise of
human-computer
cooperation

Shyam Sankar looks for clues in big and disparate data sets. Computing alone can’t solve the world’s problems. Data mining innovator Shyam Sankar explains why solving big problems is not about the right algorithm, but rather the right symbiotic relationship between computation and human creativity.

The best stats you’ve ever seen

In Hans Rosling’s hands, data sings. Global trends in health and economics come to vivid life. And the big picture of global development—with some surprisingly good news—snaps into sharp focus. You’ve never seen data presented like this. With the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, statistics guru Hans Rosling debunks myths about the so-called “developing world.”

How I hacked
online dating

Amy Webb was having no luck with online dating. The dates she liked didn’t write her back, and her own profile attracted crickets (and worse). So, as any fan of data would do: she started making a spreadsheet. Hear the story of how she went on to hack her online dating life — with frustrating, funny and life-changing results.

Why smart statistics are the key

When she became the attorney general of New Jersey in 2007, Anne Milgram quickly discovered a few startling facts: not only did her team not really know who they were putting in jail, but they had no way of understanding if their decisions were actually making the public safer. And so began her ongoing, inspirational quest to bring data analytics and statistical analysis to the US criminal justice system.

Visualising crowd-sourced data

Artist Aaron Koblin takes vast amounts of data — and at times vast numbers of people — and weaves them into stunning visualizations. From elegant lines tracing airline flights, to landscapes of mobile phone data, to a Johnny Cash video assembled from crowd-sourced drawings. His works brilliantly explore how modern technology can make us more human.

What ‘likes’ online
can say about you

Have you ‘Liked’ curly fries on Facebook? Watch this talk to find out the surprising things Facebook (and others) can guess about you from your random Likes and Shares. Computer scientist Jennifer Golbeck explains how this came about, how some applications of the technology are not so cute — and why she thinks we should return the control of information to its rightful owners.
