What makes the ISI different from other influence tools?

Unlike general communication or personality assessments, the Influence Style Indicator™ is specifically designed to measure how someone prefers to influence others in professional settings. It is:

• Research-backed – Developed through extensive validation studies by Discovery Learning and Innovative Pathways
• Practical and action-oriented – Provides immediate, applicable insights for individuals and teams
• Easy to integrate – Can be used as a stand-alone tool or combined with other assessments such as emotional intelligence or leadership style instruments
• Insightful and developmental – Helps leaders adapt their influence approach to suit different people, challenges, and environments

It’s not just about understanding your style—it’s about learning to flex and influence more effectively, ethically, and sustainably in today’s complex workplace.
