Prints™ can be thought of as the DNA of personality. They determine our view of the world - why we do what we do, why we are who we are. They explain how we react and how we relate. Prints are at the core of what motivates us and what drives us crazy. Prints determine our strategies for getting what we want and reveal our life's challenge. They provide insight and understanding about others.

Prints are based on an ancient model. There are nine Major Prints - everyone fits one of them. Beyond that is the intuitive magnetism of Prints. Many people are drawn to them because they resonate with them at a personal level that involves a kind of knowing...a personal truth.

Everyone has a dominant Print - their "major" Print, and also has a "minor", or secondary Print. In fact, people have elements of many Prints. No Print is better than any other. Every Print has its own spectrum of behavior - both positives (Best-Self) and negatives (Shadow). It is up to each individual to decide if they want to spend more time in their "Best-Self mode" and reduce their Shadow behavior. Studies have shown that increasing Best-Self behaviors results in better performance.

Each person operates from his or her own perspective...their Print is their view of the world. By learning to tune into other's Prints, as a member of a team, in personal relationships, with other executive or managers, you can connect with them from their perspective and thus be able to communicate with them in a way that might not have been possible before. Prints allow us to gain incredible insight into why others do what they do. They also allow us to know how best to be "heard" and received by others.
