The so-called "idiots" in our lives are often simply people who have a different behavior profile and style of communication.

Reds: Dominant and commanding

Yellows: Social and optimistic

Greens: Laid-back and friendly

Blues: Analytical and precise

Erikson explains how to identify and interact with each type of person, and the simple four-color system allows you to speedily identify a friend or coworker and adjust how you speak and share with them.
