Synopsis

All life is about relationships - personally, professionally, and socially. Every relationship begins with you. THE COLOR CODE is the most revolutionary and accurate measurement of your personality available on the market today. Once you have learned THE COLOR CODE you will never see yourself or others the same again.

THE COLOR CODE is your best bet for understanding how to make sense out of life's relationship puzzles. It introduces the following four personality "Colors," or driving Core Motives: RED (Motive: POWER)-These are the power wielders. Power, the ability to move from point A to point B, and get things done is what motivates and drives these people. They bring great gifts of vision and leadership and generally are responsible, decisive, proactive and assertive. BLUE (Motive: INTIMACY)-These are the do-gooders. Intimacy, connecting, creating quality relationships and having purpose is what motivates and drives these people. They bring great gifts of quality and service and are generally loyal, sincere, and thoughtful. WHITE (Motive: PEACE)-These are the peacekeepers. Peace, or the absence of conflict, is what motivates and drives these people. They bring great gifts of clarity and tolerance and are generally kind, adaptable, good-listeners. YELLOW (Motive: Fun)-These are the fun lovers. Fun, or the joy of doing something just for the sake of doing it, is what motivates and drives these people. They bring great gifts of enthusiasm and optimism and are generally charismatic, spontaneous, and sociable. THE COLOR CODE is different to any of the other personality profiles on the market today. It is the only assessment that identifies driving Core Motives. Most other popular tests and assessments strictly identify your behaviour, and leave it at that. In other words, The Color Code helps you to understand why you do whatyou do versus simply whatyou do.

About this title

Review

"The concept of Motive and the Code provides an invaluable and unique tool that enables individuals to understand themselves and others in a way that appropriately facilitates interpersonal relationships. As one who has studied behavioral style for more than three decades, I believe The People Code system stands head and shoulders above the others and provides greater clarity and understanding than any program I've ever been exposed to. - James F. Henning, Ph.D.

From the Author

A Relationship Book that explains MOTIVES behind behavior!!!
I have worked closely with people as a pyschologist and business coach. I recognized that nothing in our field explains personalities or relationships from the perspective of MOTIVES. Rather, everyone has only expressed insights about human behavior. Identifying what people do is far less satisfying than understanding why they behave as they do. The Color Code offers the revolutionary insight about the motives that drive human behavior. I promise every individual who embraces this model that their lives will make more sense and that they will be more successful in their interactions with others if they will apply the principles taught in this book. This is a rich journey into understanding oneself and all human relationships. You will understand for the first time not only WHAT you do but WHY do it. This book helps you see yourself as others do rather than with the blinders you may create to filter what they see. In a world screaming for clarity about themselves and others, this book is a MUST READ! 85% of people lost their jobs last year because of limited people skills. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent each year on hiring and firing employees because they were the wrong match. 50% of marriages in America end in divorce. Those statistics alone should make each of us want to better understand ourselves and those with whom we interact. Once you have read this book, you will forever see yourself and others from a more meaningful perspective. This book is a refreshingly accurate insight into who your REALLY are. Don't miss the magic it offers! You won't be disappointed.
