Thomas Erikson - How to Stop Being Exploited by Psychopaths

Season 1, Episode 62,   Nov 01, 2020, 02:20 PM

Richard Kilgarriff shares OMI with behavioural expert Thomas Erikson on the dark, manipulative characters whose only motive in life is to get what they want.
Approximately 160 million psychopaths roam the earth looking for victims. Some run companies and countries, wielding enormous power without empathy or compassion. You might have one in your life right now. If so, run very quickly in the opposite direction, says Thomas, for the psychopath will not be shamed or reasoned into submission.

Thomas Erikson is the Swedish Behavioural expert whose book Surrounded By Idiots sold 2.5 million copies worldwide. In it he described four types of personality – Red, Yellow, Green and Blue - to explain why and how we see ourselves and other people.
In SURROUNDED BY PSYCHOPATHS he brings first hand experience to the science of spotting and dealing with the psychopaths in your life and work. The good news is you can tell who they are. The bad news is they cannot be beaten, only avoided.
