Four colours. Four ways to reach people.
Everyone carries all four colours, and one shapes them most strongly. Once you know which, you find the right tone. Example: a project is delayed by two weeks.
-
Red
Dominancedetermined, direct, goal-driven
How to reach Red: briefly, with the result first. The decision stays with Red.
“Two weeks later, the goal stays. You decide by Friday.”
-
Yellow
Influenceoutgoing, spontaneous, optimistic
How to reach Yellow: personally, and with a view to the opportunity.
“Good news: two more weeks to make it really strong.”
-
Green
Stabilityfriendly, warm, willing to compromise
How to reach Green: early, with reassurance and time for questions.
“I am telling you early: for you, only the date changes.”
-
Blue
Conformitysystematic, precise, detail-oriented
How to reach Blue: with facts, reasons and documents.
“New start on 17 March instead of 3 March, because of the test phase. The plan is attached.”
