STUDENT READING


MP 1. FOUR LENSES BASICS (Preferences/Colors/Temperaments)


Under the Four Lenses theory the terms ‗preferences‘, ‗colors‘, and ‗temperaments‘ are


interchangeable. Every person you meet or interact with is a unique individual. Each has


their own preferences, expressed in different styles, mannerisms, and ways of approaching


life‘s challenges. What they like, where and how they were raised, and their distinctive life


experiences make them different from any other person who has ever lived on this earth.


This diversity is what makes life so interesting, and is also the cause of much heartache


and misunderstanding.


It is no secret that the degree of happiness and/or success we achieve in our lives depends


heavily upon our ability to positively interact with others. In fact, almost everything we


want in life must come to us through the hands of another. Our parents, teachers, family


members, neighbors, clients, co-workers and the rest of the human race are linked in this


amazing way. Therefore, unless we plan on living in total isolation from the rest of the


world, the more we know about ourselves and others, the more skilled we will become in


accomplishing what matters most in life.


There are as many different ideas and theories about human interaction as there are people.


The four lenses is but one approach. This lesson on the four lenses is specifically designed


to help you learn to look with understanding into the heart of another…to open lines of


communication, to reduce personal misunderstandings, and to foster mutual understanding


and acceptance of the ideas of others.


The founding father of this modern research was the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung. He


believed that observation of the habitual exercise of individual choice, consistent with


certain shared preferences, could be used to help identify fundamental differences in


people. According to Jung, each person is born with a specific predisposition toward a


particular preference. In the early 1940‘s, Isabel Myers and Katherine Briggs combined


the works of Jung with their own findings and created an instrument called the Myers-


Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Today, it is one of the most widely used personality


surveys in the world. David Keirsey also used some of Jung‘s research to develop the


Keirsey Temperament Theory. You can take the Keirsey Temperament Sorter on-line at


http://keirsey.com/ and the website often offers it free-of-charge. Both of these instruments


are foundational to the Four Lenses on-line assessment that gives you an awareness of your


specific predisposition toward one of four particular preferences…the Four Lenses.


The Four Lenses on-line assessment helps you identify your primary and secondary


preferences in the form of ―colors‖ which are also your ―temperaments.‖ The highest score


identifies your primary color and the next highest score identifies your secondary color.


These four colors can help you determine your preferences and the preferences of others.


They are broken into: green, blue, gold, and orange. The green represents those that prefer


competence and logic. The blue is opposite the green and represents those that prefer


relationships over other preferences. The gold represents those that prefer organization.


The orange is opposite the gold and represents those that prefer excitement over other


preferences.

MP 3. COMMUNICATING THROUGH THE LENSES


Blind Spots


One of the most commonly used models used to illustrate your self-awareness and what


others are aware of is The Johari Window (see figure 1). This framework, developed by


Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham, is essentially a matrix with four quadrants used to deter-


mine how you typically operate as levels of self-awareness and others‘ awareness of you


change.


Figure 1 Johari's Window1


In this model, the blind spot refers to an aspect of our personality that is not known to self,


but is apparent to others. For example, others may notice that you lack eye contact when


talking to people. You, however, may be completely unaware of this. It is only through


the process of receiving feedback that the blind spot can be addressed. You become aware


of the eye contact issue and change this behavior. In effect, the blind spot is reduced


through identification and learning—moving you to the left of Johari‘s Window to the area


of ―known to others and known to self.‖


During the Four Lenses on-line assessment, you were asked a series of questions that


indicate your preferences. If you scored ―20‖ or less in one of the colors, you will have a


Blind Spot for that color (preference). Let‘s consider an example of a person whose results


indicate he has a strong Gold temperament but scores a ―10‖ in the Blue. This identifies


some interesting characteristics about this person. As we know, he is likely to prefer


structured, disciplined environments, schedules, and timelines – real task-oriented.


However, he may have difficulty expressing emotions or being affectionate to others and


CF05SG - 6


sensitive to their feelings.


The results could be devastating to his family, friends, and coworkers! They may perceive


him as ―insensitive‖ or ―cold‖ which negatively affects maintaining a healthy relationship


with this person.


The first step to reducing these Blind Spots is being aware of them. Once you realize they


exist, you can then explore ways to reduce your Blind Spots.


MP 4. MATURITY


Maturity is the ability to express one‘s own strengths, feelings, and beliefs in a manner that


is considerate to the abilities, thoughts, and feelings of others. With the Four Lenses, it is


the ability to take off your primary ‗lens‘ (or color) and put on someone else‘s. One‘s


maturity can be viewed as a continuum of low maturity to high maturity.


A person with a high level of maturity can be referred to as humble, modest, and discreet.


It can be very difficult to determine the primary temperament of a mature person because


they are operating from ‗the nexus‘, which is the place all four colors connect. A person


with a high level of maturity can be compared to a chameleon, which is able to adapt its


colors to its environment. A person with a high level of maturity will not ―force‖ their


temperament on others.


Maturity is a product of, and the proverbial ―face‖ of, our character. Maturity develops as


character develops. A low level of maturity doesn‘t necessarily mean a person is


immature; it simply means the person requires development. To develop maturity, one


should expand their knowledge of the four temperaments, recognizing each one as


different. Seek enrichment opportunities to experience all temperaments first-hand to


complement the learning (and maturing) process. Be willing to make personal behavioral


changes (sometimes sacrifices) to better empathize, relate, and communicate with people


of different temperament preferences. As maturity develops, your ability to operate in


your non-primary color improves. The result is a person who, regardless of primary


temperament, is capable of genuinely connecting with each person they interact with so


naturally that their primary color is difficult to determine. Others often view a person with


a high-level of maturity as an influential member of society.


As a person develops their maturity, he might start out with a low-level, firmly believing


that his way (or color) is the best/correct way. They may even ―force‖ their preferences on


others. He matures as he gains knowledge and experience, such as learning about the Four


Lenses and recognizing each of the four colors are different temperaments. As he matures


even more, he realizes that ‗change‘ isn‘t the goal; rather behavior is. For example, an


Orange would never become a Blue, but perhaps could learn to ‗act‘ more like a Blue


when appropriate. As he moves along the continuum toward higher maturity, he would


gradually increase his ability to operate in his non-primary color. Eventually, he would


reach a high-level of maturity, with the ability to ‗do‘ the attributes and mannerisms of the


other colors with little effort, selecting the most reliable and appropriate behaviors. This


would be done without ‗advertising it‘, in other words, with humility.


Real-life Guidelines and Strategies of Colors 2


With all of the information you have learned about yourself and others in this lesson, you


now have enough information to be dangerous to yourself and others. Inappropriate use of


CF05SG - 7


this information (well-meaning or not) can potentially damage relationships and threaten


communication. To help you avoid doing this, the creators of the Four Lenses have


developed a list of real-life guidelines and strategies.


1. Don’t stereotype others – Everyone is their own unique blend of colors. Something that is true for one person of a certain color may not be true for another person of


the same color.


2. Don’t try to change people – When we look at other people, we are using our own ‗lens‘ to view them, so we tend to compare others to ourselves. You might have a


tendency to believe that because someone is different from you, that person is


flawed and you may want to try to help them become more like you. This is


counterproductive and very difficult (if not impossible).


3. Don’t negate the values of others – Refrain from judging color characteristics as right or wrong. As you learned in the values poster exercise, each temperament has


its own set of values and standards that differ (often greatly) from the others.


4. Don’t let strengths become liabilities – Sometimes, when people are down and/or stressed, they can tend to minimize or maximize certain traits to the point that the


traits that were once strengths become liabilities. For example, a Gold being so


obsessed with cleanliness to the point that it drives people away.


5. Don’t use colors as an excuse – Our colors are our preferences, not our capabilities.


It is counterproductive to blame personality type for behavior (or non-behavior).


6. Keep your observations private – People tend to react negatively to being ‗figured


out‘ or ‗diagnosed‘ easily by others. Even if you recognize someone as a Gold,


refrain from pointing it out; rather, use it to improve your communication style


with that person.


7. Give good gifts – Give people what they value, not what you value. This applies to


communication as well. Instead of addressing or relating to someone in a way that


you prefer, you should consider doing it in a way they would prefer.


8. Carry your colored lenses with you – Try adopting another perspective if one isn‘t


working for you. If communicating in one style doesn‘t work, try a different


colored lens (you have four to choose from).


9. Validate the strengths of each color – Each temperament has a unique set of strengths that the others don‘t have. Recognizing, accepting, and validating them is


important to the success of any organization. It also encourages growth and


development in others.


10. Learn from others – By becoming familiar with the skills and strengths that other


temperaments have, you equip yourself with either the ability to potentially develop


new skills or possibly compensate for ones you are unable to develop by


surrounding yourself with friends or coworkers who have mastered those skills.


Doing either of these things enables you to successfully adapt to various challenges


life brings.
