| Introduction Page 1 of 2

Would you like to “Work Smarter, Live Better, Love More and Laugh
Often?” If you answered “Yes!” you are about to learn how, as you
discover your Brain Color.

The What Color Is Your Brain? (WCIYB) method is fun and


fascinating. It also is a remarkably fresh approach and powerfully
simple answer to what makes your co-workers, romantic partners,
children, friends and family members tick!

WCIYB will help reduce the frustration and complication in your


business life and personal relationships and improve your own and
others’ ability to:

1. Understand and value your personality type


2. Communicate effectively with others
3. Work more collaboratively with co-workers
4. Keep your energy up and your stress down
5. Decrease the hassles and increase the harmony in the
workplace and at home

I assure you that learning WCIYB will be effortless, educational and


enlightening. The practical applications can be implemented
immediately to resolve conflicts quickly, enhance your job
performance and build cooperative interaction with others.

“I’ve been trying to train my staff about customer service and how to
understand people; I just didn’t know there were colors to help me
do it.” A color- filled comment from a hospital supervisor.

Originally, I developed the WCIYB program as an introduction for my


strategic planning/creative problem solving workshops. I wanted to
create a non-judgmental environment that eliminated criticism and
enhanced appreciation for each individual’s ideas.

The foundation for WCIYB is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator or


MBTI®, a well-respected self-reporting assessment tool. Isabel
Briggs Myers and Katharine Cook Briggs developed the MBTI® in
1942, based on Carl Jung’s four personality functions: Sensing,
Thinking, Intuiting, and Feeling. They used 16 letter combinations to
identify personality traits. I believe the MBTI® and other similar
personality assessments offer valuable and valid information within a
specific business organization, work environment, or career.
However, their use of a series of letters, terms, and symbols are too
confusing for children and often for complicated for most adults to
remember.

“We're always looking for a way to connect, to relate, to get into


someone else's head to understand how they're thinking. Colors
really make much more sense than the Myers-Briggs terminology;
much easier and a much more ‘positive’ way of identifying
personality types, and colors don't label anyone in a way that one
might find offensive. I like your entire approach - all very upbeat, and
accepting and forgiving of ‘other colors’ quirkiness.”, a sale
professional told me after she participated in a workshop and read
my book.

Individuals quickly and positively respond to WCIYB, because the


methodology:

 Uses only four colors to identify personality types


 Does not label people or put them in only one category
 Is an common language for adults and children to easily
understand

 Is a bridge to connect the workplace, home, school, and


community

If the title “What Color Is Your Brain?” piqued your interest, I’m not
surprised. We are naturally and socially inquisitive about ourselves
and others. The abundance of television and radio programs,
websites, magazines and social networking sites demonstrates and
confirms the curiosity and fascination individuals have about each
other.

The essence of my book and workshops is to help adults and


children recognize and bring out the best in themselves and others.
The WCIYB personality profile explains why your perspective differs
from or is similar to the viewpoints of others. As an “Instant
personality decoder,” it will help you decipher your unique
characteristics and solve the puzzling traits and talents of others who
impact your daily thoughts and actions.

To determine your personality type as a Blue, Yellow, Green or


Orange Brain individual begin reading with Chapter 1, The “No Right
or Wrong Answer” Brain Quiz, followed by Chapter 2, Recognize
Your Brain Color Strengths and Perspectives. Then enjoy reading, in
any order that suits your Brain Color personality, the other chapters
that contain detailed Brain Color content, research charts, personal
anecdotes, quotes and innovative problem-solving techniques.

I encourage you to use WCIYB as a reference book. Keep it on your


desk, in your briefcase or at the kitchen table for easier conflict
resolutions, fascinating revelations and lively conversations. Soon
you will be confidently speaking fluent Brain Color and translating
the perplexing or predictable behavior and idiosyncrasies of the
diverse personality types in your life.

Enjoy your Bran Color Adventure and Best Wishes for a Happy
“Brainday!”
