Why look for a Lumina Learning alternative?

User experience. Purpose.

C-me Colour Profiling stands out as a more practical and accessible alternative to Lumina Learning, especially for organisations looking to improve communication, collaboration, and performance quickly and effectively. While Lumina offers a more complex psychological assessment, C-me focuses on observable behaviours through a clear, four-colour model that teams can easily understand and apply without specialist knowledge.

The simplicity of C-me makes it ideal for real-time development, from onboarding to leadership training, delivering immediate value without sacrificing depth. For L&D professionals seeking a user-friendly, engaging, and action-oriented tool, C-me offers a faster route to insight and impact.

What our clients say about us

“C-me is a really important tool within our Organisational Development offer. It's a reasonably new offer but the feedback so far has been really positive in terms of insight, awareness and future considerations and colleagues are eager to do more work in this area.”

Sarah Engineer OD Consultant, The University of Sussex

What makes C-me different from Lumina Learning?

There is no need to master a complex system in order to remember your own profile and even those of everyone you’re working with. C-me can bring teams together from day one in any industry and context, because it’s designed to be faster to learn and effective immediately.

What are the similarities:

  1. Both use preference indicators​ – i.e. we ask people to rate themselves and their
    own preference.
  2. Suitable for individuals, teams and organisations.
  3. Both focus on self-awareness, team dynamics, and leadership to build healthier organisations and drive business results.

What are the differences:

C-me represent data more simply. We cut out everything that is not essential, in order to be clear, effective and increase the up-take.

We don’t ask responders to remember extensive categories for themselves and then every team member they work with. Instead, we simply encourage people to learn the four colours of the wheel and what they stand for. We ask that users simply remember their top two preferred colours. A person’s profile is not stuck to one inflexible category. We do not box people in. We encourage flexibility and growth.

We also provide a simple C visual, that displays the colour order of a person’s preferences, as memorable icon to display and show others their colour preferences simply:
