 IN A NUTSHELL

GREEN – “WHY?”
YELLOW – “BE PREPARED”
BLUE – “HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL?”
RED – “JUST DO IT”
38
 EVERYONE HAS SOME OF EACH COLOR.
WE EACH HAVE OUR STRENGTHS AND OUR WEAKNESSES.
TRY TO PLAY TO EACH OTHERS STRENGTHS AND CONSIDER
HOW OTHERS APPROACH IDEAS, PROJECTS, AND
COMMUNICATION.
USE THIS INFORMATION TO BECOME A BETTER
COMMUNICATOR AND TEAM PLAYER.

39
 REMEMBER
ONE COLOR IS NOT ABOVE ANOTHER PERSONALITY COLOR!

MOST PEOPLE EXHIBIT TRAITS OF EACH OF THE DIFFERENT

COLORS; RARELY IS SOMEONE ONLY ONE COLOR.

HONOR ALL THE COLORS – THE PURPOSE OF TODAY’S

ACTIVITY WAS TO APPRECIATE AND UNDERSTAND OTHER
PERSONALITIES, NOT TO SEPARATE OURSELVES.

The best way to find
yourself is to lose yourself
in the service of others.
