A Concept Brief on the
'Dis'toTHIS Framework

Where disruption becomes direction — and every 'Dis' state is a doorway.

The Methodology

The 'Dis'toTHIS™ methodology is a proprietary pattern-recognition system developed through 25+ years of executive coaching and organizational facilitation. It identifies the universal 'Dis'ruption states that professionals encounter during transition.

Before there is clarity or breakthrough… there is 'Dis'.

At the heart of this work is a simple truth: when we're stuck, we're usually caught in a 'Dis' state — disempowered, disregarded, dismayed. The path forward isn't around these states, but through them.

Core Diagnostic

The Core9 'Dis' States

The Core9 patterns that emerge across industries, roles & demographics

'Dis'empowered
'Dis'illusioned
'Dis'regarded
'Dis'respected
'Dis'oriented
'Dis'engaged
'Dis'mayed
'Dis'unity
'Dis'-Ease

These states aren't failures — they're signals. Recognizing which 'Dis' has you in its grip is the first step toward transformation. The Core9 serves as a diagnostic lens, allowing coaches, facilitators, leaders and individuals to quickly identify where someone is stuck and determine what pathway moves you forward.
