• Dots

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Wed Jun 12 23:18:26 2019
    Has anyone been though some group communication style exercise that sees
    folks divided up into four different types represented by coloured dots?

    I went through it today where I work. Not sure if it helped or created stereotypes of people in each others minds.

    I did something similar by the sound of it.

    I went through it today where I work. Not sure if it helped or created stereotypes of people in each others minds.

    Does it make you think of the movie Divergent? :)

    I am a rather dark shade of green apparently.

    I think it can come in handy when involved with a group of people you may not know well.

    A combination of red and green would be my guess.

    Sounds like a modern version of Myers-Briggs?

    Dang, I'm red/green colour blind, too! How ironic.

    We've done exercises vaguely like this so many times at my work, that I can't recall if this one was done specifically. But we usually end up forgetting
    the exercise within a day and get back to our pre-existing stereotypes.

    I think I've seen something similar on the Internet where you could find out what "colour" personality you were.

    Yep it was like that. Not very detailed but rather a bit light and fluffy. I was not sold on the time being well spent.

    Those sort of things tend to have a hard time pinning me down. I don't always fit the assumptions these tests use. :)

    The once over lightly system they used on us was about allocating people to
    one of four communication styles... the associated colours they used were
    red, blue, yellow and purple and it was suggested that these types were
    always present in all of us but each person would have a weighting towards
    one or two in particular.

    So yeah, it was interesting but not something I would hang my hat on or bet
    the house on :)

    In theory. I can also be context sensitive, which might skew my results in different situations. :)

    I'd agree there. :)
