Summary of thomas erikson's surrounded by bad bosses (and lazy employees)

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The world is full of bad bosses. Team leaders, group leaders, departmental managers, unit managers, deputy managing directors, and managing directors. Some are far too nice, and some are just plain mean. #2 The four colors of the DISC model are Red, Yellow, Green, and Blue. They represent how a person functions and communicates. A person is rarely just one color, but most often has elements of two or even three. #3 The DISC model cannot explain everything about an individual's behavior. There are other models that seek to explain behavior, but I use this one as a starting point because it is pedagogically simple to grasp. #4 The art of leadership is not easy to master. There are many bosses who are ineffective, and it's a good idea to learn to recognize these patterns.
