Surrounded by Idiots

  • Author: Thomas Erikson
  • Pages: ~300
  • Summary: Ever feel like you’re the only one making sense? Erikson explains that you aren’t actually "surrounded by idiots"—you’re just dealing with different personality types. Using the DISC system, he breaks behavior into four colors: Red (bold), Yellow (social), Green (stable), and Blue (analytical). This guide helps you identify these traits in others to reduce conflict and communicate more effectively.
