Merrick started his career when the team building industry was in its infancy. While working on his M.B.A., he discovered this new way of teaching people how to work together effectively and immediately knew this was his path. He founded Team Builders Plus with Jeff Backal in 2001 and paved the way for the team building world we know today. It didn’t take long for Merrick to observe that personality clashes often created conflict in teams. So, he began using the DISC model in 1994. After teaching the DISC styles to hundreds of thousands of people, he became dismayed that the styles weren’t making a lasting impact and getting infused into corporate culture.
