About True Colors®
True Colors® is a model for understanding yourself and others based on your personality temperament.

The colors of Orange, Gold, Green, and Blue are used to differentiate the four central True Colors® personality styles. Each of us has a combination of the four True Colors that make up our personality spectrum, usually with one of the styles being the most dominant. By identifying your personality (and the personalities of others), True Colors provides insights into different motivations, actions, and communication approaches. The core of the system identifies intrinsic values, motivations, self-esteem, sources of dignity and worthiness, causes of stress, communication styles, listening styles, non-verbal responses, language patterns, social skills, learning styles, environmental motivators, cultural appeal, negative mental states, relationship orientation and ethical behaviors.

Hence, by understanding each individual's personality type, teams can improve communication through the recognition of a person's true character, transforming True Colors into an uncomplicated language for every individual to convey complex ideas very simply.

True Colors works because it is based on true principles and easy to remember and use – in all kinds of circumstances – from personal relationships to professional success.

Designed to be simply infused through a large variety of methods, the True Colors approach has been experienced by millions of people worldwide in the US, Canada, Latin American, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.
