‘Essential Colors’ is a model that specializes in the use of four color sections categorizing four key areas of life. They include: ‘faith based,’ ‘business,’ ‘education’ and ‘relationships.’ According to creator/founder/ CEO Dr. Sabrina Jackson: “Essential Colors was created to fill a void in organizational training and culture. The model uses four specific colors and styles, including: 1) blue – ‘We Feel Blue,’ 2) Green — ‘We Think Green,’ 3) Orange – ‘We Think Orange’ and 4) Gold – ‘We Know Gold.’ Use Essential Colors, take it to work, church and live your life better in color by applying Essential Color.”
