About this listen

All of us at some point have - or will - come into contact with psychopathic individuals. The danger they present may not be readily apparent because of their ability to charm, deceive, and manipulate. Although not necessarily criminal, their self-serving nature frequently is destructive to the organizations that employ them. So how can we protect ourselves and our organizations in a business climate that offers the perfect conditions for psychopaths to thrive?

In Snakes in Suits, Hare, an expert on the scientific study of psychopathy, and Babiak, an industrial and organizational psychologist and a leading authority on the corporate psychopath, examine the role of psychopaths in modern corporations and provide the tools employers can use to avoid and deal with them. Together, they have developed the B-Scan 360, a research tool designed specifically for business professionals.

Dr. Babiak and Dr. Hare reveal the secret lives of psychopaths, explain the ways in which they manipulate and deceive, and help you to see through their games. The rapid pace of today's corporate environment provides the perfect breeding ground for these "snakes in suits" and this newly revised and updated classic gives you the insight, information, and power to protect yourself and your company before it's too late.

Everyone should read this!

this is one of those books that would make a world a better place if everyone read it. It helps identify and spot sociopaths and psychopaths early. Explaining quickly and precisely what they do and why they do it, how they think different from us and why. I thought using stories to get certain points across was an incredible choice. Read this for my psychology class, definitely the most valuable book I have in my collection.

Very Technical, Not What I Expected

While the topic, as a whole, is something I'm quite interested in I found this audiobook to be much too technical for my taste and drawn out. I hate to leave then audiobook unfinished, however, so I listened to the end and I can genuinely see the last two chapters were where I got the most value out of.
