  • Phil Darke - How to Build Better Teams and Stronger Relationships

    Phil Darke - How to Build Better Teams and Stronger Relationships
    Apr 2 2026

    In Episode 194, we're recasting Offseason Talk, Volume 2, where host Phil Darke breaks down why understanding and implementing the DISC Model of Human Behavior can be one of the most practical and powerful steps you take toward building a healthier team and a healthier life.

    In this episode, you'll learn how DISC can help you:

    · understand yourself more clearly

    · connect better with team members, staff, volunteers, and family

    · communicate more effectively

    · navigate and resolve conflict

    · reduce tension and turnover

    · create stronger relationships

    · and improve results both personally and professionally

    Here's the challenge: on average, two people only have about a 40% chance of naturally communicating well and connecting with one another. In other words, most people are far more likely to experience miscommunication than meaningful connection.

    The good news? It doesn't have to stay that way.

    Listen to hear how DISC can help you better understand people, lead more effectively, and create healthier, more productive relationships in every area of your life.
