YELLOW
STRENGTHS
Yellows mission in life is to make people happy. It is the one and only thing that they do in fact, take seriously. They believe life is meant to be lived and that everybody on the planet just needs to mellow out and be more like them: happy!
They are great communicators and coordinators of people and events. Yellow are highly interactive and make great networkers. They are great in sales, because they are so charismatic. They are charismatic because they just like all people.
Out of all of the colors, the yellows are the least likely to ever be prejudice about much of anything for that would drag their happy energy down, and they are very protective of their happiness and sunshiny dispositions.
Yellows just enjoy people and basically just see people as a
forms of entertainment! Yellows are busy, busy socializers and networkers. They have a big job getting everybody on the planet happy, after all. This is their strength and they do it very well.
Yellows love being around people and any job description that has the word "social" on it! The keep things "light" and when something is very serious, or intense, it will be the yellow who pops the funny one-liner that gets everybody off track and laughing.
Yellows generally can be great comedians as well. They have the innate ability to take something awful and make it funny.
Yellows love making people happy.
Because yellows are so charismatic, they can also step into leadership roles very easily.
INTELLECT
A yellow has a very creative mind and unlike the green, yellows do not create within the confines of system. In fact, they are anything but systematic. Out of all the colors, the yellow is outside the proverbial
BOX more than they are in the box. They create in a place just a level beyond the green's
zone, known as
THE GREAT OUT THERE!
Yes,
THE GREAT OUT THERE is a fabulous place for the yellows to mentally play and create. Because of this, they are more likely to be your artists, your musicians, and any profession that requires the capacity to come up with new, out there, never been done before, ideas.
Yellows can recognize a yellow a mile away by that constant smile on their faces. They usually have big white teeth and when they smile, they make sure that every last tooth is shining through, just for others.
MOTTO:
IF IT'S NOT FUN, I'M NOT DOING IT!
Yellows clearly have the leadership qualities of a Tom Sawyer. Remember when he was supposed to be painting the fence white. One by one, he had convinced all the children in the neighborhood that he was having the most fun of anyone getting to paint that fence white and before long, they were all painting the fence and he was sitting there watching and smoking his pipe! This however, while innovative, if not genius, can be problematic when working with other personality styles.
PROBLEMATIC AREA
Most yellows are probably thinking right now; what problem? We don't have any problems, right? Well maybe you don't, but other colors have some problems with you!
This may be a difficult concept for a yellow, but it's true, there are some areas that it would certainly help make a few more people more happy if you were to attend to.
Yellows tend to get a little bit
D I S T R A C T E D!
They are the color that thinks they can do ten things at once, but really can't.
Yellows prefer to work in what is known as
FREE FORM WORK ENVIRONMENT.
What does that mean? A yellow knows exactly what it means! It means, when it gets done, it gets done.
Yellows
will get things done, but it most likely will not be on the time frame that any of the other colors would follow. That's not how they operate and that's not how they are neurologically wired.
They are intellectually wired differently than the other three colors, and that's exactly why they are creative and solution generating.
You will often hear a yellow say that they do in fact believe that they work best under pressure. However, as a yellow it is important to understand that it hurts your credibility and your team participation, not to take this more seriously.
To be a good team player you will want to work on your focus, being tuned in during meetings and being time conscious when it comes to projects. Because people are waiting on you and need you to do your part in a timely fashion. Turn it into something fun, and you won't be so resistant to what you perceive are the negative aspects to the more orderly personality styles.
LITTLE QUIRK
Yellows agree that their little quirk(eigenart) is that they;
JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO PERK DOWN ("abmuntern:)")
And many in our world, would just like to wipe that smile right off their face. Yellows just don't get it that some people just don't want to be happy, let alone, all of the time, OK. Yellows will say, "But we're so happy. We will undoubtedly live longer than anybody else."
Invariably a yellow comes along, brightly and cheerfully says,
"Oh, now you get a smile on that face!"
Or
“Don’t worry, be happy!”
What we want to do is not only learn about ourselves, but also start thinking about the style that is most difficult to deal with and communicate to.
When we learn about our own style and how it depicts not only what we highly value, but how we think and integrate information, then we begin to understand why we are not on the same wave length verbally and intellectually as some one who has entirely different values and thinking processes.
For starters, people with similar tendencies are most compatible with one another socially. That's because those with common interests, habits and approaches help reinforce each other's self-esteem. In the work arena when it comes to tasks --whether it's doing a project at work, purchasing materials or determining the budget --the dynamics differ dramatically.
For example, Reds and Yellows share an outward focus and often similar interests. Blues and Greens, on the other hand are both inward oriented and may like the same kinds of activities. Both Yellows and Blues aspire to be in a supportive relationship. Usually, though, it's the Blue who's in the giving role and trying to make peace and the Yellow who's trying to get everybody to "lighten-up" and have some fun!
Meanwhile, the "I want it and I want it now" directive Reds and Yellows commonly find it hard to develop rapport with the quiet, focused and internally driven Blues and Greens who are less decisive and driven toward external rewards. And the Blues and Greens, in turn, find the Reds less desirable because they're too pushy, too loud and often too bossy in their demands of them.
To the Red, who just wants results and wants them…. yesterday, and to the Yellow, whose basic saying is, "Don't worry, be happy!"--the cautious Green and steady Blue can be a drag. While Blues often resign themselves to tolerate the forwardness of Reds and Yellows, the Green frequently just prefer to be left alone in their office or cubical.
THE MAGICAL TECHNIQUE OF MATCHING & MIRRORING
If they are standing or sitting with their shoulders back and quite erect... do the same thing. If they use language succinctly... be succinct. Don't go on about your personal or their personal life. Match their interests. If they are interested in RESULTS, keep your conversation with them quick and to the point. This by the way, would be a Red.
BE NICE with a Blue, soften your stance, your shoulders and your voice. Allow a connection to take place first by asking them how their day or their family is. When discussing an area of concern, simply give them illustrative and/or descriptive information with an example of how you'd like it to be. They are driven by knowledge and their key desire is to figure it out so they can do it well and be of service to you. Appreciate that!
Think SYSTEMS with a Green... talk systems and talk fast! They already see the "big picture" so what they are interested in is the mental process of designing the most efficient way to get there. And what about the fun loving, people oriented Yellows!?! OPEN UP and put a big old smile on your face…. then pull up a chair and sit down. Why? Because it's going to be awhile! They will want to connect with you for at least 15-20 minutes before getting down to business. Once down to business though watch out, because they are about to razzle dazzle you with their most creative and innovative ideas to help make that event you are coordinating a spectacular.
