Four Colours

Do you see, talk and listen in colour?

Understanding the four colours can transform how you connect and communicate with other people.

So what do the colours mean?

🔍 Blue behaviour has a preference for Introversion and makes decisions using a preference for Thinking. This behaviour is logical, analytical and values precision and clear processes. Blue behaviour can sometimes get stuck in “perfectionism” and delay progress or decisions being made as they cautiously make sure everything is right.

⚡ Red behaviour enjoys being around other people, likes to be involved in the action, and wants things done now. Red is a blend of Extraversion and Thinking, and are direct, confident and focused on results - and can become impatient if things are moving too slowly.

🌟 Yellow behaviour is enthusiastic, optimistic and full of ideas. With an Extraverted and Feeling preference, Yellow behaviour thrives on connection with others and keeping energy levels high. This colour behaviour motivates and inspires others, but can easily get distracted.

🌿 Green behaviour values harmony, patience and stability. Blending Introversion with Feeling, Green behaviour is supportive, thoughtful and great at empathising with others. Green behaviour prefers a steady pace so can feel uncomfortable with sudden change or conflict.

While each colour behaviour brings valuable strengths, their differences can also lead to frustrations and misunderstandings. Understanding these differences is key in helping teams work together more effectively and become more engaged and collaborative.

LearnLing’s workshops cover the key elements required for teams and leaders to be successful - self-awareness and self-regulation, identifying preferences in others, and how to adapt your natural communication style to build strong, effective relationships.
