Surrounded by Idiots offers great advice on how to get your point across more effectively, communicate better, and work your way up in your personal and professional life by getting to know the four types of personalities people generally have and how to address each one in particular to kickstart a beneficial dialogue, instead of engaging in a conflict.

Communication can be a real struggle when you’re engaging with different types of people. But life doesn’t always send us the people we like to chat with! That’s no one’s fault, but we’ll all still have to learn to work together and get along.

Surrounded by Idiots by Thomas Erikson explores the idea of four personality types and different communication techniques for each of them. So maybe it wasn’t you all along. You just didn’t know how to address that person who’s not your personality type! At times, we can’t click with a person and that makes it even more difficult to communicate effectively with them, let alone establish a professional relationship. However, that can negatively impact your career and personal life. Luckily, the book offers a way out of this situation.
