Decision Style Profile® (DSP)

Choose how, and when, to involve others.

Some decisions need a clear individual call. Others benefit from consultation or shared input. The Decision Style Profile (DSP) explores how you choose the level of involvement that fits a business decision.

Through realistic scenarios, DSP helps you examine your decision-making habits and the factors that shape an appropriate response. The focus is on matching your approach to the situation, including when others’ knowledge or commitment matters.
