Are you tired of “dealing with all those impossible people at work?’ After a period of time in any job, the
honeymoon will be over and the personalities come out. Albert J. Bernstein and Sydney Craft Rozen call these Dinosaur Brains
.
Learn about the many components of the brain including; impulsiveness, fight/run, dominance, territorial, romance, and placing blame to name a few. The authors provide a lot of insight into behavior…maybe even your behavior.
This book is not just for working folks. I was the chairman of an elementary school trip fund-raising effort. There were only about 75 students, but that makes 150 parents! I once had one parent call me to “offer help,” and confide to me how another parent (who wanted to be the chairperson) was complaining about me. I hung up the phone and within five minutes that other parent called me with a question. She then proceeded to tell me how the other parent (the one that I just hung up with) was complaining about my efforts. Those are dinosaur brains.
I almost wanted to note in the margins who in my life matched the personalities outlined in the book. Read the book and learn about “Lizard Logic.”
