Publisher's summary

Motive matters! "Give me five minutes and I can predict your life success. I can help you understand why you do what you do by identifying your Core Motive." (Dr. Taylor Hartman)

In his life-changing book, Dr. Taylor Hartman introduces you to the People Code and why people do what they do. The concept of motive is a fresh method for analyzing your own innate personality as well as that of those around you. You then have the ability to utilize that knowledge to improve workplace and personal relationships. As an author, psychologist, and leadership coach, Dr. Hartman offers a remarkably astute system for segmenting everyone into specific motive-types denoted by a color: red (power wielders), blue (do-gooders), white (peacekeepers), and yellow (fun lovers). He then explains how to ensure that all possible alliances between them function at optimum effectiveness.

If you struggle with self-acceptance and have questions about why you and others act the way you do, Dr. Hartman and The People Code can help you maximize your life success by improving your day-to-day relationships.

Truly Illuminating

I’m an avid fan of the psychology, philosophy, and personal growth genres, and I must say, this book is excellent. I’ve already explored the Myers-Briggs and Big Five personality theories as well as the Clifton Strengths assessment and have derived significant value from each, but The People Code has been even more insightful.

The ideas presented in the book has made me restructure my beliefs and attitudes toward people in a profound way. I am excited to experience the full impact of this enhancement to my mental model as I apply the learnings from the book to my life in the years to come. Brilliant work!

Most influential book I’ve ever picked up

This book has allowed me to see life differently and understand why my needs are so high. I’m a blue red and my life has been a battle between myself and myself! This has allowed for so much perspective and understanding of others.
