What color are you?
Real Colors personality tool can help you and your team work more effectively together.
Real Colors® is a dynamic workshop experience using a personality type test. The goal is to provide participants with the skills to understand human behavior, uncover motivators specific to each temperament and improve communication with others
The basis of this workshop is the Real Colors® personality type test: a user-friendly, intuitive tool that identifies four personality types common to all people—gold, green, blue, and orange. Michelle Neff, Extension Educator has written a series of articles about Real Colors that provides detailed information about the four different colors that the assessment assigns to participants: gold, green, blue and orange.
During the Real Colors workshop, participants gain an understanding of the four colors, discover where they fall as an individual on the Real Colors spectrum, learn to recognize characteristics of each of the four colors and discuss with fellow workshop participants what it is like to be each color.
The Real Colors program is a user-friendly, practical way for participants to better understand their own personalities and the most important traits they possess. Just as important, they gain insight into the characteristics of others and why individuals might react to the same situation differently. Participants also learn skills that allow them to better communicate their thoughts and ideas to clients, friends and family. Several Extension Educators can offer the Real Colors training on-site for your organization including Bonnie Wichtner-Zoia and Bethany Prykucki.
