Your Overall Intensity: High (74)


Your Intensity Level is HIGH. The Intensity score reveals the strength, energy and passion shown in
communication. The higher the Intensity score, the higher the drive to communicate. High Intensity is often
an indication of someone who will fight for their opinion to be considered and to exercise control, (whether
directly or indirectly) and will do more to maintain communication and relationships. They may also be more
prone to conflict. High Intensity persons tend to draw attention, which can create an image of an
individualistic personality. Lower Intensity scores indicate those who generally do not compete to be heard,
although they may have valuable contributions to make and are sometimes overlooked or ignored. The
chart above gives your intensity on each language as well as your overall intensity.

Language Intensity
Each Life Language has its own individual intensity. The strength of the intensity score reveals the level of
energy for that specific Life Language. In the final anaylsis, overall intensity score is more of a determinant
on the forcefulness of an individuals communication.

Gap
Gap is the distance between two different Life Languages. We measure the gap between the nearest two
Life Languages. The greater the gap, the more effort it takes to move from one Life Language to the other.
The smaller the gap, the easier it is to move between the two Life Languages.

Your Accumulated Range: High


Your RANGE SCORE is considered HIGH. The RANGE GAP between your primary and secondary
language scores is considered HIGH. Range is the difference between your Primary and Seventh Life
Languages. A high or low score is neither better nor worse, though very meaningful. A High Range means
that the individual tends to stand out in his or her Primary language and has a more definable behavior and
communication style; however, that individual may have more difficulty communicating with those who
speak his or her weaker languages.A Low Range may mean that the individual tends to communicate
easily with all the languages, but may be less predictable and understandable to others, and sometimes
even to themselves. The failure to understand range is one of the primary causes of communication
difficulties. You will also want to look at the range (gap) between each language and how the range
increases with each descending language to give you the above score.

Communication Indicators
Just as a thermometer can indicate air or body temperature, the following factors give you further insight
into your communication style. They do impact and play a role in your communication but do not determine
your communication style. The following Indicators are scored High, Moderate and Low. These scales differ
from your Seven LIFE Languages scales, as Indicators may change through life experiences and
choices.

7. Learning Preference Order

1. Acceptance Level
This scale measures how you tend to view yourself, whether you more easily see your strengths and
positive attributes or your weaknesses and negative qualities. Or whether you see a balance between the
twoeasily and honestly seeing both your negatives and positives qualities.

Your Acceptance Level - Low (29)


A LOW Acceptance Level indicates that you tend to have more introspection and awareness of your
weaknesses than your strengths or positive attributes. You have many positive attributes, and can
choose to identify and develop awareness of them, although you will usually have to work through
the negatives to get there. Positive input about yourself by others possibly makes you
uncomfortable. Focusing more on your strengths, positive attributes and successes can raise a Low
Acceptance Level. It may be easier for you to see the positive things about others than it is to see
your own. You may be very open and sometime perhaps too open to advice and counsel, trusting
others insights more confidently than you do your own.

2. Interactive Style
This scale indicates how comfortable you are with people most of the time. The KLLP measurement of
Introvert and Extrovert is somewhat different from other measurements; it measures preference rather than

Daisy Sanchez - 04/14/2014

LIFE Languages v 2.0 (2012.3.15)

Page 5

Kendall

Life Languages
Profile

overall behavior. For example, it measures whether you prefer working alone or in groups, or working with
those you know or do not know. As another example, according to our measurements, a person who
scores as an Introvert may seem outgoing and somewhat extroverted to those he or she knows well.
However, with strangers or those not known as well, the Introvert will typically be less verbal, less outgoing,
and not desire to mix with them.

Your Interactive Style Introvert (2)


Your KLLP indicates that you are comfortable not being the center of attention unless you are with
people you know well. You are comfortable working behind the scenes, and enjoy small groups (or
one-on-one). Constantly being around a lot of people, especially those you do not know well, can be
exhausting and you may withdraw to prevent stress. You also may be self-motivated and enjoy
working alone; however, when working with groups, you prefer those you know well or people you
are comfortable with.

3. Internal Control Level


This scale indicates how you see yourself in the area of self-discipline or self-governing vs. spontaneity or
impulsiveness. Generally speaking, if we have high Internal Control, we are less prone to being externally
controlled, either by others, circumstances, or experiences. Some people prefer to get tasks done ahead of
schedule, and some seem to work better or more creatively doing things at the last minute under a time
pressure. The higher our Internal Control, the more disciplined, and our lower the Internal Control the more
flexible and spontaneous we are.

Your Internal Control Level Moderate (56)


A Moderate Internal Control level suggests a relative balance between being self-governed and selfdisciplined vs. spontaneous and flexible. This score indicates that you can choose to be selfdisciplined when needed or to put aside tasks when appropriate, for example, when someone or a
situation interjects itself. Maintaining a healthy balance in this area is probably relatively easy for
you, and a goal all of us can seek.

4. Intrusion Level
This scale measures how you see yourself handling interruptions, intrusions, interference, outside stimuli,
people, or situations foreign to you, usually uninvited or unexpected. Intrusion Levels indicates how
comfortable and tolerant you are with distractions and differences. Some people like a more structured
environment, and others flow more easily with uninvited or unscheduled people or situations. For all of us, a
good habit to form is the ability to gently or kindly communicate when intrusions become an issue.

Your Intrusion Level - Low (29)


Your score indicates a lower level of comfort and tolerance for life as it is presented. Interruptions,
intrusions, unexpected circumstances, and outside interferences tend to test your patience and may

Daisy Sanchez - 04/14/2014

LIFE Languages v 2.0 (2012.3.15)

Page 6

Making the most of your KLLP

Kendall

Life Languages
Profile

even be an irritation. Differences in others can be distracting, and you may want to guard yourself
against seeming impatient, critical, or sending unfavorable signals that appear to be judgmental. A
Low Intrusion Level can help you to stay focused on tasks, but you may want to make sure you
sincerely and gently express yourself without projecting a dismissive attitude that could be hurtful to
another.

5. Projective Indicator
This scale indicates how important others perception and opinion is to you. For example: a person with a
high projective score could be greatly concerned if others had a less than positive opinion of them. A
person with a low score would probably shrug it off and not let it bother them. A balance between high and
low is valuable because it provides objectivity so that you can evaluate others attitudes about yourself and
thereby remain teachable.

Your Projective Level Low (29)


A Low Projective Level suggests that if others are indifferent to you or even disrespectful, you can
probably shrug it off. The opinions of others do not generally impact your attitude or activities. An
extremely Low Projective Level can cause others to possibly see you as indifferent, not easily
motivated by others, and unconcerned about others opinions. Generally, you do what you want to,
without a great deal of concern. This tends to make you not overly subjected to peer pressure.

6. Susceptibility To Stress
This scale measures vulnerability to stress that comes into our lives. Stress is in all of our worlds, and
comes from various sources, even from having too many good things going on at one time. We are more
susceptible to stress when we are too busy, lacking sleep, not feeling well, fatigued, frustrated, lacking
exercise, and even unable to express ourselves adequately. Failure to handle stress properly can cause us
to move into one or more of the Distress Levels of our Life Languages. We can learn to recognize our
stress and do what is necessary to de-stress. Distress, by Life Languages definition, is when you respond
negatively to any situation.A key to avoid over reaction to stress and distress is H.A.L.T. Avoid stressful
situation when your are: H-hungry, A-angry, L-lonely and T-tired.

Your Susceptibility To Stress Moderate (38)


A Moderate Susceptibility to Stress indicates that under most circumstances you tend to handle
stress appropriately. When those situations arise and you are experiencing external or internal
pressures leading to stress, you generally do not escalate to a high level being highly vigilant or
reactive, nor de-escalate to a low level being very laid back and relaxed. You tend to handle stress
in a more positive way most of the time.

7. Learning Preference

Daisy Sanchez - 04/14/2014

LIFE Languages v 2.0 (2012.3.15)

Page 7

Making the most of your KLLP

Kendall

Life Languages
Profile

There are three basic Learning Styles and our preferential way is the one that is easiest for us. We learn in
all three ways, but when there is a choice, the one that is more natural, distinct, and clear will typically be
our preference. It will usually be our most effective way to experience and sharpen our learning skills.

Your Learning Preference Auditory (42)


Your Profile indicates that you prefer to hear instructions explained to you, and you quickly
understand and can follow verbal instructions. You are sensitive to sounds in your environment.
You can tell a great deal about a person's mood or attitude by the sound of the persons voice,
usually easily determining stress and feelings that a person may think they are hiding. Listening to
audio CDs is a valuable method of learning for you.

Your Primary Life Language: Shaper

Life Languages
Profile

Shaper Summary Cognitive Category


As a High Shaper, you tend to be a natural leader who is organized, visionary,
focused, delegating, strategic, intentional, and efficient.
High Shapers have the ability to plan, organize, and lead many activities
simultaneously. You have the ability to think and plan for both the long and shortterm. It is not unusual for High Shapers to have well thought out five, ten, and even
twenty year goals. You like to organize your life using charts and time lines. You are
a visionary with the ability to see the necessary steps of action that are required to
reach your goal and turn your vision into a reality. You can be very focused on goals and projects, and you
use your time efficiently.

When working on your plans, you instinctively know


who is best suited for a position. You are good at
delegating tasks, supervising people, and placing the
right person in the right job. You also most likely
enjoy developing others and helping them reach their
full potential.

About 10% of the population speaks


Shaper as their Primary Life Language.

Worldwide

You are generally quite articulate, especially when it


comes to sharing your plans and vision. Usually you
can do this in a very persuasive manner, ensuring
that others catch your vision. You tend to be rather
private about your emotions, except for a few special
people.

You tend to size up situations, gather facts while analyzing the pros and cons, then make quality decisions
that result in success. You do not necessarily seek out leadership, but it often finds you. When it comes,
you most likely do not take it for selfish or egotistical reasons. You want the organization, team, or project
to succeed. You are a good team player as long as the leadership and boundaries are well defined. If there
is no designated leader, you will typically assume that position, as leadership comes quite naturally for you.
High Shapers generally have no problem being accountable, and you want others to be accountable as
well. You look for measurable results. Attitudes and behavior that are not mission-related are frustrating to
you. You are goal oriented, sometimes to the point of being driven.
At times you may seem aloof as you withdraw to plan, and set goals. You can talk easily about ideas,
issues, concepts, and plans. But generally, you consider small talk a waste of time. You like intellectual
stimulation. And, you do not enter into sharing emotions easily. Although the Shaper Life Language is a
Cognitive Language, you can set the course of action as well. You think, plan, then move those you are
leading into action with a determination for success. You hope and expect others to be sensitive to your
time and pressures.
As long as the project or goal gets accomplished, healthy Shapers do not care who gets the credit. You are
comfortable in the limelight, but you are equally comfortable behind the scenes pulling the strings. You
tend to share the credit for a successful project with the family or the team. You enjoy seeing others as
useful and valuable. You usually have a great deal of self-confidence and should not need applause to feel
good about yourself.
Once a project is on the road to completion, you may prefer to delegate the ongoing maintenance to others
so you can pursue new goals and challenges. Shapers tend to get bored with routine jobs and prefer the
challenge of something new. You prefer to lead rather than manage.

on their goals and plans until they are successful. They stick with it until the goal is reached and the vision
is a reality. Then, they tend to move on to the next goal or project.
High Shaper men and women usually pursue excellence in their dress and appearance as well as in their
homes and offices.
As a High Shaper, you are gifted with greatness. Celebrate the fact that you are organized, visionary,
focused, delegating, strategic intentional, and efficient.

Filter
Each Life Language has an internal filter that screens incoming and outgoing communication. The internal
filter is like wearing colored glasses. Shapers Color is "Royal" Blue (Indigo), so imagine that you see the
world through that colors sensitive filter. The Shapers Filter is, What is your plan, and are you working it?
Shapers look and listen to everyone to see and hear if the other person has a plan. They generally have
low tolerance for people who waste time, or seem to be meandering through life without a plan or purpose.
A more positive approach for the Shaper could be to choose a conscious paradigm shift, turning the filter
question into a filter statement: You can be part of my plan, or Ill be glad to help you develop your plan.
This fits with the Shaper ability to develop people.
Need From Others Support and Agreement
Each Life Language has needs that are met through personal and professional relationships. Shapers feel
loved, valued, and motivated by receiving from others Support and Agreement. They are not looking for a
yes person who agrees with everything. Shapers want support for good plans and agreement of shared
values, goals, purpose, and destiny. Genuine compatibility of goals and direction is very important to them.
Because Shapers are generally in leadership roles, and leaders are often targets of criticism, they need the
security and calm of safe, supportive relationships.
Passion To Lead
Passion is the spark that makes your life worth living. There is a Passion that motivates each Life
Language and gives direction to their communication style. The Shapers Passion is To Lead, and Shapers
lead others automatically and naturally through planning and delegating. The Healthy Shapers Passion To
Lead is a gift to be shared.
Key Character Strength Patience
Each Life Language has many outstanding character strengths, but there is one that is the primary or Key
Character Strength and generally most pronounced in that person. Patience is the Key Character
Strength of the Shapers Life Language.
Patience is defined as, Quiet, steady perseverance and even-tempered care. Shapers focus their patience
towards the long-term plan and the development of people towards greater levels and efficiency, to keep
that steady pace towards the goal. Though the goal remains 5, 10, or 20 years down the road, patience will
assure the Shaper and his or her team will reap the rewards of their strategic planning and patience.

Shaper Needs for Success


The following Essential Trait and Success Habit are indispensable to your overall success in life.
Essential Trait Cultivate Sensitivity

order for you to succeed.


The Essential Trait for you as a Shaper is Cultivate Sensitivity, especially to the emotional needs of
individuals around you. As a Shaper who keeps in mind the big picture, it is easy for you at times to
overlook the needs and feelings even of individuals who may be responsible for helping you reach your
goals. You will find great fulfillment as you develop sensitivity toward others, and your success in life will be
enhanced as you display this Essential Trait.
Success Habit Learn to Relax, Reflect, and Relate

healthy character. When this Success Habit is demonstrated you will see the positive difference in your
personal and professional relationships. The Success Habit for Shapers to pursue is Learn to Relax,
Reflect, and Relate. Shapers tend to push so hard to reach their goals and schedules that they often dont
stop to relax, which can lead to burnout. They also often fail to take the time to reflect, especially about how
decisions affect people. As they learn to Relax, Reflect, and Relate their relationships are strengthened.

Career Information
Shaper Leadership Style
Every Life Language can be a leader, but each does it differently. One Life Languages Leadership Style is
not more important or more successful than any other. There are seven great LIFE Languages, thereby
seven great and different Leadership Styles. It is important that you accept and develop the one you are
gifted with and not compare or try to become one that you are not.
Shapers are leaders, who visualize final results and develop people, plans and resources for the successful
completion of goals. A Shaper enjoys expansive leadership roles, delegates, and holds each person
accountable for their part. Exceptional Shaper Leaders have learned and implemented their Essential Trait
of Sensitivity, as well as the Success Habit of Learning to Relax, Reflect, and Relate. Successful leaders
hire people to fill and cover the weaknesses of the leader and to the strengths of each of the seven LIFE
Languages, so as not to over duplicate themselves.

Cultural Philosophy
Each of us has an important, responsible role. Lets do our job, be accountable, stick with the plans, and
accomplish our goals.
Shapers as Employees
Shapers can make great employees. They appreciate organized leadership with established job
descriptions, goals and purpose to follow, or the freedom to establish their own goals and plans. It is
important for them to know that there is an opportunity for them to grow into stronger leadership roles.

Shapers as CEOs than any other Life Language), supervisors, department heads, analysts, military
leaders, pilots, architects, professional engineers, medical doctors, and medical specialists. Shapers seem

Fun Facts
Color and Music
There are seven colors in the color spectrum and seven whole musical notes. In 1666, Sir Isaac Newton
united in one mathematical matrix the phenomena of light and sound, and it continues today as the colormusic code. Colors vibrate and the measurement of the vibration corresponds with the vibration of the
musical notes.
Color "Royal" Blue (Indigo)
"Royal" Blue (Indigo), is a deep, royal blue and is the color of the galaxy or the wide, deep ocean. This
color is associated with visionary leadership, success, high aspirations, knowledge, and power. Shapers
have the ability to reach high and fargrowing, expanding, and taking others with them on their journey of
success. "Royal" Blue is a color of great depth, and Shapers add depth to their lives through their planning,
organization, leadership, and achievements. "Royal" Blue is also the color for dignity and excellence. Often
Shapers have an air of dignity about them, and those who reach their potential have discovered the
importance of the pursuit of excellence.
Shapers Core Value

Language. All the aspects of your Life Languages (your Filter, your Need, your Passion, and your Key
Character Strength) come together to reveal what that Life Language values most. The
Core Value for the Shaper Life Language is: FUTURE (Meaning - potential, expectations, opportunity, yet
to come).

that orchestra and choir directors use to tune the instruments and voices before a concert. Being tuned
properly is like working together with a plan and purpose, which is what High Shapers naturally do. By
tuning to the concert note of A we can then play a concerto in perfect harmony.
Nature Symbol Lion

"King of the Jungle. They are the only social member of the cat family. Lions live in large groups called
"prides", consisting of about fifteen lions. Lions within a pride are often affectionate to one another and

stalk and ambush prey.

The dissenting order of your Life Languages, the


situation, and circumstances determine your
generosity with money and resources. However, as a
Moderate Producer, you may be selectively generous
with your resources. Although you may not always
look for the best buys, there will be times when you
refuse to purchase something unless it is a quality
product at a bargain price. Healthy Producers tend to
be grateful for what they have, and treat both people and things with respect and care.
Generally in a marriage, the spouse who scores the highest in Producer is the one who gives direction to
the finances, typically making good financial decisions. If that is not the case with you, remember that as a
Moderate Producer, you do have it within yourself to develop this ability.
Only about three percent (3%) of those who have taken the KLLP speak Producer as their Primary Life
Language. This is about the same percentage of the population that retires with financial dignity.
When you are speaking your Moderate Producer you can be quite responsible, hospitable and thoughtful.
Of all the Life Languages, Producers manage their lives well, seem to have sufficiency, and live and give in
abundance. Celebrate the fact that you are a Moderate Producer and can choose to speak this wellrounded, resourceful and gracious Life Language when you choose to!

Applying the Seven LIFE Languages


We encourage you to read, reflect, study, and review your KLLP carefully. The more you understand the
LIFE Languages, the more ways you will find to apply them in your relationships. Typically, those who
have LIFE Languages similar to our own are initially easier for us to communicate and get along with.
However, learning to accept and understand the differences in each of the seven LIFE Languages can
bridge those differences in our Languages. Those very differences can often bring balance and strength to
relationships. Try to get together with others who have taken the KLLP to discuss and compare your
LIFE Languages in positive, constructive ways. You will find this to be a great adventure.

When interacting with those who have not taken the KLLP, remember that the two most frequently
spoken LIFE Languages by both men and women are Responder (32% of the population) and Doer
(28%). Producers are 3% of the population. The other three LIFE Languages represent about 10%-13%
of the population. So until you get all your friends, family, and co-workers to take the KLLP for
themselves, if you speak to most people as though they were either Responders or Doers, you probably
will not be too far off.
Remember, Responders need unconditional acceptance, and Doers need approval for their
accomplishments and for you to do your share of the work. You will be amazed at the changes that will take
place if you simply address these two basic Filters and Needs in both children and adults in your life. They
will blossom!

Another way to help you understand the communication style of others who have not taken the KLLP is
try to determine their Category. Do they feel first (Emotive Category), think first (Cognitive Category), or act
(Kinetic Category) first? Do they say things like: I feel that this just isnt the thing to do, or I think that we
should consider..., or Lets do it! Why stand around? Once you have determined their Category, you can
respond accordingly.

Take It to the next level. Fred and Anna Kendall cover each of the seven LIFE Languages in depth in
their classic book, Speaking of Love. Learn how to recognize speakers of each of the LIFE Languages
including their Distress Levels, how they might decorate their home and office, how they handle finances,
how they respond romantically and intimately and much more. Once you have determined a persons
Primary LIFE Language, you can communicate with and inspire that person by responding to their
Passion or Developmental Need.

An Influencer working for a High Shaper was in danger of being fired for appearing unorganized. Although
she was producing good results, her boss thought she seemed too unpredictable. She began making a
consistent effort to meet the Shaper bosss need for agreement and support through long-term planning,
projections, and documentation with timelines. Instead of being demoted, she received a salary increase.

She learned to speak his Language! At work A Mover Mom disciplined quickly and directly, often by
spanking her six-year old Responder son. He usually became hysterical, angry, and resentful. In addition,
her discipline was not changing his behavior. After reading Speaking of Love, this mother began
consistently providing the Responder child with unconditional acceptance and affection and showing
genuine grief when he misbehaved. Within 8 months, the childs behavior was so improved that he would
confess and occasionally punish himself with time-out.

Keep in mind there are occasions when the KLLP may not seem to fully reflect the way you see yourself,
or the way others see you. One or more of the following reasons might explain why:
1. The person answering the questions experienced a recent trauma that impacted their answers.
2. The person answering the questions was doing a job that influenced their answers toward a profile
consistent with that job.
3. The person answering the questions slanted the answers deliberately toward how they want to be seen
or away from how they really are most of the time in most situations.
4. The person answering the questions has experienced a great deal of abuse in their life, and possibly has
not dealt with it.
5. The person answering the questions lacks the reading comprehension and/or vocabulary to choose the
answer that most fits them.
6. The person answering the questions does not know himself or herself in reality.
7. The person answering the questions went to one extreme or anotheranswering the questions with no
thought, or giving them too much thoughtcausing an inaccurate profile.
8. The person answering the questions did not answer them they way they are most of the time, most of
their life and in most situations.

These are vital to achieving an accurate KLLP. Remember, your communication style, personality,
character, behavior, beliefs, and even your KLLP results are not etched in stone. Use the KLLP for
learning, growing, developing character, improving communication, and building relationships, By
approaching the KLLP as a learning - growth journey, you can be successful, enjoy life more, and
become all that you were created to be.

The KLLP Profile Circle


Your Primary Languages are your preferred communication style, but just as your lifestyle and behavior are
not static, neither are your seven LIFE Languages. When your first or second Life Languages are not
connecting with someone, remember you have five other Life Languages that you can use.

The Profile Circle shows how you can pull up a lower Life Language to use in that situation. We believe that
you are designed to move up and down your LIFE Languages Portrait until you consciously or
subconsciously find the one that connects with that person, usually by speaking through their Filter. When
we are inflexible and stay in only one or two of our stronger Life Languages, we limit ourselves. Under
stress, you are most likely to exhibit the distress characteristics of your Primary Life Languages, but you
absolutely can learn to pull up on the strengths of your lower Life Languages to help compensate for those
situations. This helps you move out of stress and build character in your life. It is important to remember
that a high or low score in a given Life Language is neither better nor worse, but simply an indication of
your fluency and comfort in that Life Language. Picture your seven LIFE Languages on a rotating wheel
or carousel that you can turn and use to pull up the strengths of each and every LIFE Language to help you
better connect and communicate with others as well as get through stressful or difficult times in your life,
career, and relationships.
