Section I: Your Natural Talents
This personality overview section highlights your natural workplace
talentsthe tasks you pursue with passion. You'll learn how your natural
strengths complement those of your coworkers and how, joining forces,
you can resolve on-the-job dilemmas.
YOURE THE PROTECTOR
Colton, as a red-orange, you offer unbiased, practical facts.
You believe that its your obligation to speak the truth about a
situation without apologies. If someone gets out of line, youre
not about to keep quiet. What youre looking for are bottom-line
results. You hope to create a workplace environment where
everyone is treated fairly and can express themselves without
fear of putting their career in jeopardy. Your presence brings
forth a sense of integrity.
Your Team Contribution
You create a very special, deep connection among team members.
Big is not necessarily better for you. Small companies or closely-knit
departments within companies hold greater rewards. In those
environments you can speak out and co-workers can experience
your worthwhile contributions firsthand. Pent-up anger or concerns
can lead you to overreact and get off track.
How to Celebrate a Red-Orange
Its hard to find a team member more loyal or protective than a red-
orange. All he asks is that you trust his ability to accomplish a task.
What he needs most is that you not question his sincerity, even
when he seems to have said the wrong thing. If youre experiencing
a chill from red-oranges directness, get him to open up. Schedule a
one-on-one lunch. Dont allow the protectors firm boundaries to
interrupt your team connection.
*Support your red-orange by not getting defensive when
ready or nothe tells you what you need to do. Instead, be
secure enough with yourself to learn from his factual
presentation. If he becomes upset, youll know it. Let him
vent about things that just arent working. Later, your
colleague will return to being his undeniably lovable self.

Section II: Your Key to Success
Here you discover your capacity for dispelling disruption and
maximizing profitability. Use this proven, beyond self-perception advice
to create a more positive career path free of detours.
YOURE THE EVALUATOR
Colton, as a red-orange and black, you see whats not working and
dont hesitate to express yourself. You increase profitability by
constantly examining, in detail, the most the efficient way to accomplish
any task. This is your great talent. Using facts compiled from past
mistakes and successes, you deliver strong opinions that are hard to
deny. Others learn invaluable information from your critiques about how
to maximize the bottom line.
Investing in You
Your loyalty and commitment create a powerful bond with
colleagues. This is your key to career success. Dont hesitate to
point out if something is amiss. At the same time, reassure others
that your penetrating gaze is focused on helping them in the long
run. Otherwise, they will see your perfectionist nature as
threatening.
*Jobs in which others can benefit from your support, such as
computer repair, child care, or selling a product or service, are best
for you. So look for situations where you can lend a hand. A word
of caution: its hard for you to discern what or who is contributing to
your growth when you lose distance. Back off a bit to profit from a
new perspective.
How to Motivate a Red-Orange and Black
Give your co-worker control over getting things done. You can rest
assured that this maverick red-orange and black will take only the
proven approach. Even when your colleague appears to have made
up his mind, chances are the next day he will suggest a
compromise. Keep the faith: hell continue working toward a mutual
agreement. In fact, your co-workers strong sense of devotion to
you and the task at hand keeps him moving forward. Without this
resource, hell become spiritually bankrupt. He so needs to feel
needed that hell sacrifice his personal life for the good of the
company.

Section III: Managing Your Strengths & Weaknesses
Your evaluations highest and lowest scores result in this sections
recommendations for staying on-track in your career and reversing
wrong turns. In focusing on your talents and missteps, youll re-stoke
your energy and enthusiasm for managing costly mistakes.
SETTING PRIORITIES
STRENGTH: RESULTS DRIVEN
Setting Priorities
Your practical approach allows you to evaluate
things and the people around you. You perform
best when you are acting in the best interest of
others. Your thinking is consistent and very
factual. You help others around you recognize
the facts and let them know when they are not
being practical. Your opinions and observations
correct their focus. You are motivated by the
opportunity to direct others.
Money is important to you. You need to know if
you're going to get your share. After all, money
is recognition of a job well done and it shows
that you are important. The accumulation of
resources is your way of proving your self-
worth.
*You believe strongly in getting it right the
first time and are irritated when others leave
promises unfulfilled. You have little patience
with attitudes that reflect laziness or
unwillingness to work. You believe rewards
must be earned. If this attitude is carried too
far, you can earn a reputation as a hard
taskmaster. Others, though, will see you as a
perfectionist.
Create Passion
Temper your need to constantly evaluate situations and others' actions.
You will see in detail what is working for you.
Weakness: You're too Determined
At work, you are exceptionally goal-oriented and have a clear idea of
the objective at hand. If things take too long, you become impatient.
You have a steady need to complete something. Your first thought is,
"Why isn't this finished already?" When your sense of urgency is
overwhelming, you can send destructive messages. Others can see
you as a person who cares only about the bottom line and not people.
You can end up doing things twice because you are sometimes in too
much of a rush.
7
CO-WORKER RELATIONSHIPS
STRENGTH: SCRUTINIZING FEASIBILITY
Your Natural Talents
You're a very loyal employee who believes
in what you do and whom you work for.
You're the person who tells everyone how
great your company is. When your
employer does not return your appreciation
by believing in and supporting you, your
loyalty is quickly withdrawn. You have the
ability to eliminate what is not important to
you without expending much energy.
*You unemotionally communicate the
task at hand. Your co-workers respect
you for being logical. Even when they
disagree with you, they never see you
as attacking them or their positions.
After all, you're the one who usually has
a clear, practical purpose in mind
before starting a new project. You work
best when there is constant social
interaction. It especially turns you on to
be needed. Chaos is no problem; you
enjoy searching for solutions and doing
a difficult task well.
WEAKNESS: You're too Independent
Your independent nature allows you to work for long periods of time
without asking for help. You feel like an explorer. You go to extremes to
make sure that co-workers and customers are happy. You are
concerned for them, as if they were your children. You can in fact
become so busy saving others that you lose yourself. Don't try to fix
things until you've heard everything.
DECISION PROCESS
STRENGTH: VALUE ASSESSMENT
Getting it Done
You're disciplined and keep others in line. When
you are loyal or have ownership, you fight to
keep what is yours.
*You're an overachiever and need autonomy
to be at your best. You like to get things
finished without being interrupted. Still, you
need for co-workers to be loyal to you and,
in turn, you are genuinely concerned about
them.
8
WEAKNESS: YOU'RE TOO UNSTOPPABLE
At work, you can ask too much of yourself or others. Take things as
they come. Do not expect others to protect you. You'll feel more
grounded and more in control. Be honest with yourself and accept
limitations. Denying what capabilities a job or career requires will only
frustrate you in the end. You won't be any wiser from the experience.
WORK ETHICS
STRENGTH: DEDUCTING RELEVANT
FACTS
You in Action
Use your sharp eye to monitor what is actually
occurring around you. Set limits and establish
standards that insure each person's honor and
respect.
*Allow your unselfish devotion to make each
individual feel important and you will become
stronger. Others will feel your strength and
gain the willpower to celebrate each person
for what they do, not what they say or even
think. Go ahead. Make the world around you
more authentic.
WEAKNESS: You're Suspicious
You need to feel inspired, but it is difficult for you. You're suspicious of
new things and worry about taking on responsibility. If you start
something, you feel that you will have to commit to finishing it.

Section IV: Leadership Power Moves
In this final section, you will experience unique street sense power
moves that turn obstacles into insignificant details. Here suggestions
based on your color-ranked evaluations will guide you towards better
managing an interview or your fast-paced workday.





Managing Actions and Reactions
In this section, listed where applicable, are areas where you have an
intensive need to make a contribution, possess unique thought-
provoking powers or tend to overreact. Power Move advice will guide
you on how to maximize actions or manage reactions into a successful
career path or a productive day.
The Power to Regenerate
Away from the rush of the workplace, you re-energize yourself and
envision empowering opportunities. By revisiting past on-the-job
experiences, you see what would work best for future projects. Dont let
these thoughts fade. Usually, they are right on. You can realistically
appraise where or with whom you need to be.
Power Move: Dont view your inspired thinking as impractical.
Write down your thoughts. You will envision how to open new
doors, or make the old ones open to new places. Dont
discount all of the possibilities just because they appear vague.
Time away allows you to dampen self-doubt and stoke your
own power.
Manage Quick-Fix Problem-Solving
Dont jump into projects. Allow yourself time to clarify requirements,
task responsibilities, and realistic timelines. Make the effort to lighten-
up your overly serious approach. Its essential for your success.
Power Move: Your sense of urgency and overly serious task
approaches can make work more laborious. If you are feeling
somewhat stiff or sounding rather formal, back off. Rethink
your purpose and expect easier, cost-cutting results in less
time. Enjoy the workplace experience and success is a given.


BOTTOM-LINE PERSPECTIVES
In this evaluation area you learn how to translate your ongoing,
internal conversations into profitable actions. Sharpen your
goal focus by examining the pros and cons of your
assessment. Use the power move suggestions to make a shift
toward less stressful, more productive ways.
Goal-Driven Executer
Your to-do list gives rational direction to your life goals. You pursue
what you want until evidence suggests a new path. Your take-charge
approach makes your life work and allows you to fasten on your goals.
Co-workers see you as confident and decisive.
10

*Create Clarity: Being you is hard work. Arent you
occasionally second-guessing a thought beyond whats
necessary? Consider adjusting your goals and taking risks
based on gut instinct. In relationships with your co-workers,
try sharing your feelings or even doing non-work activities
together. This openness will go a long way towards
building trust.
Co-Worker Objectivity
In the workplace, you dont get tangled up with others personal lives.
Carefully assessing whether to get involved is an automatic process
with you. You intuitively know if working within a certain group or person
will be to your advantage as well. Your non-threatening manner attracts
co-workers like a magnet. They want to share their concerns.
*Create Clarity: Just because you know how to direct co-worker
relationships does not mean that you will act upon this wisdom.
Trust more in your own ability by freeing your mind from self-doubt.
This move will permit your smart, people-oriented inner voice to
speak. Your co-workers will respond positively, producing well
beyond your expectations.
Co-Worker Motivated Decisions
Your concerns and apparent needs pull your life together. You have
magnetic appeal. Your take-charge approach makes you experience
life as an ongoing change process. Many times, however, new
problems appear quite familiar.
*Create Clarity: Don't let core reactions run your life. Initially you
think only about others, then only about yourself. This inner debate
can lead to dead-end career paths. Concentrate on prioritizing
yourself first. When real change starts with you, disappointments
will dwindle.
Action-Oriented
You have a charge-ahead, action-oriented personality. Others see you
as an exciting burst of energy. After some consideration, you just do it.
Your forthright push clears new paths, disrupts non-productive routines,
and creates opportunities. Often, though, your ready-fire-aim persona
makes decisions you later regret.
*Create Clarity: Slow down and you will accomplish more. Just
doing things for the sake of getting them done is a tough way to
achieve valuable results. Muster the self-discipline to slow down
and think things through before you act. You will become less
disoriented, more at peace. What you start will become more
about what you need to do.
Intuitive Thought Executer
Your thoughts are intuitive. Listening to your inner voice helps you
manage your day. When rushed or upset, however, you may draw

11
conclusions yet be unable to consider whats best. Only later,
sometimes even after youve done it, do you thoroughly investigate the
situation and weigh the consequences of your actions.
*Create Clarity: Your back-and-forth routine of acting impulsively
and then becoming overwhelmed is exhausting and goal-disruptive.
Manage your day by deciding not to draw conclusions until youve
thoroughly investigated a situation. Otherwise, you will generate
avoidable stress.
