Surrounded by Idiots

If you can’t figure out what your boss wants from you; if your subordinates don’t hear a word of what you tell them; if in the office you feel like you’re in a zoo—most likely no one is trying to ruin your life on purpose. It’s just that you are red, and your boss is green. Or vice versa.

Thanks to this book, you’ll be able to find common ground with your superiors and learn how to manage even the laziest subordinates effectively. It’s much easier to “infect” your boss with your idea, defend yourself from his aggression, win respect from colleagues, and build an effective team when you know the right approach to each person.

Thomas Erikson tells very clearly and with humor:

• What is the main difference between a good manager and a good specialist.

• How to determine the type of your boss and find the most effective way to communicate with him.

• How to achieve ideal working relationships with a representative of each color type.

• How to successfully lead people whom you absolutely don’t understand.

THOMAS ERIKSON is a Swedish psychologist, business trainer, coach, a communications specialist, and the author of the personality color-typing method and the international bestseller “Around All Idiots.”
