Discover Yourself Named to Inc. 5000 for Second Time
Using the universal language of color, the company helps organizations worldwide build stronger teams, improve communications and accelerate performance EXCELSIOR, Minn., August 16, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Discover Yourself, the world's largest distributor of the Insights Discovery® personality assessment, has once again been named to the Inc. 5000 list of America's Fastest-Growing Private Companies. This second-time honor places the Minnesota-based training firm alongside some of the country's most innovative and dynamic businesses. The Inc. 5000 list is widely regarded as the hallmark of entrepreneurial success, celebrating innovation, customer impact and sustained revenue growth. Earning a spot on the list twice reflects Discover Yourself's strong performance, and its enduring ability to adapt and deliver value in a rapidly changing workplace environment. Easily the most colorful company on the Inc. 5000 list Founded by internationally recognized speaker, author and trainer Scott Schwefel, Discover Yourself transforms communication and teamwork by teaching the universal language of color.

With ours, they start applying it immediately because every conversation, every email and every interaction gets better," says Schwefel. Discover Yourself's programs — ranging from leadership development and sales training to executive coaching and team-building workshops — are trusted by global brands such as Caterpillar, 3M, Whirlpool, Zendesk and Workday. The company is actively expanding its reach with new online learning platforms, scalable virtual workshops and digital resources to make its programs accessible to teams anywhere in the world. Its reach spans all 50 states and more than 30 countries, powered in part by newly launched digital clones that can deliver on-demand training in 170 languages.
