Introduction to Print

Did you ever wonder why people behave so differently? Did you ever observe two people seeing

the same thing or hearing the same conversation and having completely different interpretations?
Did you ever wonder why certain people are passive while others are assertive? Why some are
impulsive and others prefer to plan? Why some are more creative and others are more analytical?
Why some are detailed and others only see the big picture?
The answers to these questions and many more are very much connected to ones personality. One
way to describe personality is using a process called Printing . Printing is based on a powerful
system that was developed by scholars centuries ago and has been refined over hundreds of years.
Printing takes peoples personality traits, along with the whys behind these traits, and groups them
into 9 categories - each with its own way of thinking, feeling and behaving; its own unique view of
the world; and its own set of strengths and potential weaknesses. Although people may see parts of
themselves in some, or even all of the groupings, there are always two that fit them better than the
rest called a Major (dominant) and a Minor (secondary). The combination of a persons Major
and Minor makes up their personality type, or Print, of which there are 72 in total.
IMPORTANT PRINT FACTS:

Every Print has its unique strengths and weaknesses.

Your Print explains your view of the world how you look at things and
how you respond to people and situations.

Each Print has an Unconscious MotivatorTM that drives the beliefs,

thoughts, emotions and actions of that Print.

Some behaviors are common among two or more Prints, but the
motivation behind the behaviors are different. Unconscious MotivatorsTM
are the key to truly understanding Print behavior.

No Print is better than any other Print. Prints are not good or bad, just
different.

Each Print has strengths (called Best Self) and potential weaknesses
(called Shadow) that are unique to that Print.

A persons natural state is Best Self. But sometimes Shadow replaces

Best Self as a persons automatic default, particularly under stress.

We use the numbers 1 through 9 to designate the different Prints the first number of your Print
represents your Major and the second number is your Minor. High numbers are not better or worse
than low numbers. Low numbers are not better or worse than high numbers. We simply use
numbers as a way to distinguish the groupings.
The Print SurveyTM that you recently completed was to determine your Print. Attached is your result
and a description of the characteristics of your Print, a blend of your Major and Minor. When you
read the description, it is important to note that there may be characteristics or traits
described that you dont think you have or exhibit. Do not be alarmed. This is expected. The
narrative represents the entire universe of traits for a given Print. You probably exhibit a
number of the behaviors, but not all of them. However, the narrative should be a good overall
representation of your personality.
Sometimes, people find it difficult to see themselves as others perceive them. It may help to let a
trusted, dear friend, close colleague, spouse, family member or significant other read your
description and offer their perceptions.
Please note that your narrative includes a list of traits called Potential Shadow Traits. Shadow
traits are traits that can come out during times of stress. These are potential areas for you to work
on. As we said, not all of the characteristics listed will apply to you, but those that do offer
opportunities for personal growth. Here are some suggestions for how to put the information to
good use:
1. Review the list of potential Shadow traits and try to identify two or three that you feel you
exhibit more often than you would like. Select no more than three behaviors to work on. If
possible, ask a few people you trust to verify them for you and even see if they'll point out some
examples, if you or they feel comfortable doing this. Others' perceptions can sometimes be
more reliable than your own.
2. Keep these behaviors in your conscious awareness. Shadow behaviors can be automatic. We
can do them without thinking. They often just happen. Change that process by staying "awake"
and "alert" about your behaviors. When you wake up in the morning, be aware of them. When
you start work, be aware of them, etc. What is key is how you handle your "moment of truth"
when something stressful happens and your automatic Shadow behaviors want to take over. Try
to stay aware and step back for a few moments in these situations. Even take a few deep breaths
before responding.
3. Periodically ask the same people in our first suggestion to give you progress reports. Also, if
they observe you starting to do one of your Shadow behaviors, ask them to gently inform you
and alert you to slippage. Your "buddy" can help you quite a bit. Additionally, ask them to let
you know when you are doing Best Self behaviors, especially if you are making improvements
in this area.

At their best, 6/2s are an extraordinary mix of dependability and service. Uncommonly dutiful and
hardworking, 6/2s enjoy deploying their skills the most when what they are doing has something to
do with people. Their performance is unusually outstanding when they know the ropes and are then
responsible for helping or advising others. They take great pride in their work and exhibit unusual
confidence when functioning in their comfort zone. Few can match their loyalty, commitment and
earnest desire to do an exemplary job.
How in control a 6/2 feels they are is an important determinant of their outward demeanor. This
generally holds true for both professional and personal situations. A fully prepared and wellinformed 6/2, one who has taken the necessary precautions to minimize caveats and uncertainties
up-front, is a proactive and confident person who performs with excellence. However, if they
perceive circumstances to be out of their control, or if sufficient due diligence has not been
performed, an overly anxious and worried 6/2 can be observed. Such traits can also be seen when
the 6/2 is confronted with new situations for which they havent had ample time to adapt. Although
nervous or uncertain at first, if given some time to learn their way and feel at ease, the likeability
and charm of the 6/2 will emerge and win people over.
Because the 6/2 is highly tuned in to people, they are ideal candidates for service positions. Their
radar system is finely tuned and is complemented by their willingness to respond quickly. They
generally like to talk and can be counted on to cooperate and collaborate with others. 6/2s are not
only team builders, they are community builders who form emotional bonds of trust. They are
exceptional at fostering stability and cohesiveness among members of any group they belong to.
The degree to which 6/2s experience trust is another key determinant of their outward persona.
Some 6/2s are by nature mistrustful and suspicious. Many of them believe that trust is something
that must be earned. Once it is lost, it is a hard fought battle to win back their trust. The 6/2s
inherent skepticism contributes to their seeing the worst in some situations, a kind of glass half
empty attitude. They may also be strict, and even unyielding about the way things should be done,
and when others deviate from their view of the norm, it can be perceived as an act of disloyalty or
distrust. Such incidents can lead some 6/2s to have quite negative energy about them, prone to
complaining, gossiping or angry outbursts when things arent going as they would like.
6/2s are naturally traditional and conservative people. To some of the more impetuous Prints, they
are considered overly risk averse, pessimistic, indecisive and insecure. To others, they are simply
prudent and vigilant human beings who engage slowly, but once involved, act with a thoroughness
and consistency that is commendable and comforting to those who count on them.
Finally, familiarity and stability are pursuits of many 6/2s. These can be both pluses and minuses.
Companies clearly benefit from the predictability of the 6/2. They are the pillars of the organization
that keep the wheels turning. Because of their actions, planning is possible and they make the
future appear less volatile and uncertain. But 6/2s are unfortunately limited in their creative
abilities. They are impeccable about executing others ingenious, innovative or groundbreaking
ideas, but counting on them to think too far out of the box can be disconcerting for everyone
involved.
6/2s perform best in work settings where preparation, questioning and voicing concerns are valued
and caveats are dealt with, not left to take care of themselves. Their confidence is maximized when
cards are on the table and they know what is expected of them, they know where they stand and
they are confident of the culture of their company. People interactions and service related tasks

bring out their best traits. Environments where information is not free-flowing, where people dont
know where they stand and work tasks are carried out in isolation are not ideal for 6/2s.
Entrepreneurial ventures or start-ups can also be challenging for 6/2s.
