Merrick Rosenberg

Appearance: I've received the paperback book, I like the cover design as it represents the type of the book (storytelling). good quality of paper and printing.

Content: The Chameleon book is storytelling type of teaching format incorporating the use of fables, about "4 personality styles" that each one of us either is the exact match of one style or a combination of styles, the author has used a unique way of introducing each style. there are 4 main characters who represent one style of DISC theory.

In DISC theory, you'll learn how to improve communication, less misunderstanding, less conflict, effective business strategy, more cooperation, more productivity at workplace among employees, and a better relationship at home.

The author used 4 birds to make DISC style easier to understand for the audience, and by telling the story of different events simplified identifying who has the D-DOMINANT, I-INTERACTING, S-SUPPORTIVE and or the C-CONSCIENTIOUS characteristics. As the author mentioned the first step to better understanding of these important styles is to know yourself first, by understanding your style, you'd be able to recognize others styles better and faster and you'll be able to make a stronger connection or collaboration with them.

The Chameleon character in this book is to show the unique flexibility of the chameleon as I have learned an important lesson: Treat others how they need to be treated.

This book contains 4 seasons, in each season the author explains an event such as natural disaster, travel, etc.. and explains how a person with specific personality style could be effective and act as a leader to lead others or could be a good fit in other areas.

All sections in this book are equal and truly interesting, but as a business-related book, I found it a little long especially the major audiences of this book will be business professionals, employers, and sales managers.

I recommend this book, not just to whoever wants to know DISC style, but everyone who wants to know himself or herself, whoever wants to have a better relationship in personal and professional life, parents who want to know their kids and managers who want to have a better communications with their employees for an optimal result.

In the end, I'd like to thank the author Merrick Rosenberg, for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased feedback for the book.
