Hello and happy Thursday!
In one of the professional development sessions I attended at the start of the school year, we had to take a personality assessment.
Through the years, I’ve had administrators ask us to take various ones as a way for them to better understand their staff and as a prompt for us to take time for self-reflection.
Of course, you know I’ve taken the Enneagram test, and am a 5w6, and I think many of those characteristics hold true for me.
We were asked to take the True Colors personality test. After answering a series of questions, you find out “your” color.
Color Characteristics:
- Blue (Feeler)– emotionally driven, seeks harmony in groups, enthusiastic, creative, sympathetic
- Green (Thinker)– logically driven, independent thinker, focused, efficient, analytical
- Gold (Planner)– loyalty driven, respects rules and authority, responsible, organized, appreciative
- Orange (Doer)– short-term driven, welcomes change and variety, adventurous, competitive, impulsive
Any guesses what color I am?
GOLD!…by a landslide.
I kind of thought I’d have a bit more green but I’m not surprised that I’m not orange or blue.
One of my school friends tends to run late, and she says, “It’s because I’m orange!” and we all just laugh.
Anyway, I do think it’s interesting to see other people’s results. Kind of like love languages and Enneagram types, I don’t hold a ton of stock in them, but I do think you can know people better when you understand their personality type too.
So…what color are you?
