Learn about the four main personality types and how to communicate effectively with each of them.
Surrounded by Idiots (2014) pierces through the confusion that often characterizes our daily lives and seeks to answer the question we’re always asking-- “What were they thinking?? Are they just stupid?” Backing up an exploration of human behavior with proven psychological research, Erikson takes us on a journey through the four main personality types you’ll encounter and how this impacts human behavior. Once you understand the psychology behind it, Erikson posits that you’ll be able to communicate more effectively and avoid frustration.

The real takeaway is that in order to be successful you need to understand not only the personality types, but individual motivations. First you need to know how to communicate and next you need to understand how to influence.
Omg im red, green and blue depending on what time of day
I’ve read the book. It’s basically the same as astrology following the earth, water, air and fire zodiac signs guideline and then just explaining how you can work with them or better understand where they’re coming from.

Exactly
Is it worth buying
Τι ωραία που υπάρχουν free βιβλία στο CZcams ❤️
Great summary. Thanks
So it's basically the Greek Temperaments all over again. Thank you for your review, it saved me an Audible subscription!
Glad it was helpful!
I am none of these types. Also the idea that "a blue might frustrate a red in a meeting due to his lack of assertiveness" is stupid. You know what would REALLY make a red angry? Being in a meeting with a bunch of other reds who want to step all over him.
Great summary
More books pls. I love you channel
I tried to read this andcouldn't get it properly but after having watched this video, i could say. I have a better understanding of people and their personality. Subscribed to you channel.

A balanced person could have all four trait's...
super interesting

Who else feels like u all of them
All except blue
The summary is excellent. The book is horrible because we can be all types at different times and days.
That would be great if you do the animation to every video.
The idea of pigeon holing people into a few specific types is already going out of style.
Red is me 90% me.
I'm all 4. In real life.
I'm red and yellow. When I'm on vacation I'm yellow. When in business I red. When friends first and work for me after they are shocked thinking I'm a nice guy but in work I'm not a nice guy especially because I'm
Paying them. Gives me the right to hold them responsibilities. I always tell people if they work for me they won't like me no more because I'm
Not nice.
I think i fit to yellow, how about you guys?
This book is calling it personality types but the fact is we’re talking about brains. About 10% of the population at least is mentally wired different and possibly dysfunctional Lu
*at least the 90% of population is dysfunctional
But what do we do with these colours 🙄green blue yellow red🙄🙄🙄
Don’t think I’ve ever met a yellow in my life
I was yellow-red for a while. But it wasn’t long lasting haha
Here I am my friend.🙈🇦🇺
Sup
@@CharlotteG754 how can you be emotional and senstive and insensitive at the same time
"Surounded by idiots" that's quite simply because the modern generation are "idiots"......its not a perception it'd a fact.
Bad book, read it with a ton of salt. It can be beneficial for maybe high school age or maybe gymnasium age.. for 15yo's. Its a heavily simplification of personalities based on 2000 year old knowledge.
boring
