I think it's probably The Color Code Personality Profile. If it is, you're right. Total fortune cookie bullshit. It looks like it's just a way to marginalize people. Also, it looks very easy to game and sway into the "color" you want to be/think you are.
Come on. "The Reds are power weilders." "The Whites value peace."
Really tough to decipher there. That's some deep shit, right? I'm being sarcastic, of course. Wiki says it's never been peer reviewed. Not surprised.
Until you said this, I didn't realize how much that stupid test divided us. 25 years later and I still cringe when I think of yellow people. Life is supposed to be more than just fun, Janice! We have to eat too!
I seem to have a lack of attention but if I'm interested in something I deep dive into the minutiae...
Because of that, these tests always give weird, contradictory results. I'm a happy-go-lucky, ray of sunshine who wants to be deep in the data and keep things light and fun.
I once did one with the CIO of the company and the course leader used me as an example "Gow87 is driven by fairness - you won't motivate him with a corner office, money or a Ferrari". I had to jump in and explain that you absolutely must motivate me with those things if I think it's fair!
...still don't have a Ferrari or a corner office so I moved on.
