1 Surrounded by Idiots — Thomas Erikson

Two sentence summary:

Surrounded by idiots presents 4 personality types and matches them to colours — blue, red, green and yellow. Thomas Erikson shows you how each colour likes to interact, receive information and behave in certain situations, including the office Christmas party.

What the book will teach you:

For me, surrounded by idiots is about much more than figuring out your own personality. It is a delve into other people, how they like to operate and receive information. When reading you will likely think about people you know and match them to a colour. You will also will see traits you have that sit across multiple colours. Thomas Erikson explains that most people sit across two colours, with one being dominant. This book will help you unpack your own personality, including how it adapts in different circumstances. Surrounded by idiots is a great book to start getting to know yourself.
