Click Colours® is a fun and intuitive profiling tool designed to help you discover your personality and identify the predominant profile types of the people around you. There are four distinct colours, each representing a sub- personality: the Analyser (Blue), Safekeeper (Green), Carer (Red), and Player (Yellow). While everyone possesses aspects of all the Click! sub-personalities, one type usually stands out more prominently. This is why we often connect better with people of similar colours and may find challenges with those who differ. Using Click! Colours® will not only help you understand your own personality traits but also enable you to resonate with others by discerning what truly motivates them!
