BirdBrains Inc. promises to take you on a thrilling adventure, filled with humor, action, and heart. The 30-minute film is a full-scale theatrical production that includes two musical numbers that will teach you about tapping into the power of the four styles. For the first time, you can see the Eagle, Parrot, Dove and Owl styles in action, and discover how you can share some powerful lessons with the people in your organization. This movie is a must-watch for everyone as we are taken along for a day in the life for the ultimate DISC learning experience. See author and personality expert Merrick Rosenberg starring as The Bird Guy and an award-winning cast of puppeteers have starred on Broadway, The Muppets, Sesame Street, and many television shows and movies. SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/3U2U2iu Sign up to our newsletter for updates: https://takeflightlearning.com/ About Take Flight Learning: 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. 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.
