Product Description

This book will help you deal with your employees and co–workers by giving you the keys to understanding the way their brains––and yours––work. Using the metaphor of the dinosaur brain, the authors detail a whole range of human responses dictated by a part of the human brain sometimes beyond our control. They then show you what to expect from that part of the brain and how to be prepared for it, including such problems as turf battles, reflexive competitiveness, and office courtship. Outlines the rules of ^lizard logic, and how to use them to your advantage. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Remedy For Frustration On The Job, 9 Feb 1999

By A Customer

I first read this book in 1990. Over the years I have given my personal copy to a number of co-workers who were having trouble coping with the workplace. I've had to replace my copy several times because they usually "forgot" to give it back. The chapter on the self-destructive nature of anger has served me well in many situations over the yeas. I consider this book a must for my own library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable information about different situations at work, 10 Feb 1999

By A Customer

The best book about the social things that happen at work I've read so far. Clearly written, based on the simple principles of 'reptile logic'. I use it as my bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent realistic explanations of organizational behavior!, 30 Jul 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Dinosaur Brains: Dealing with All Those Impossible People at Work (Hardcover)

The book deals with real life situations at work nobody else in the field dares to touch. The authors attitude towards the tough issues in organizational behavior is naturalistic, professional, humorous and buzzword free. Compuslory reading, especially for a young professional who wants to underderstand the implicit - and thus the strongest - micro-rules driving corporate life.
