Here’s interesting post I found recently titled Reptile, Thinkers, and Mammals. If you’re like me, you’re wondering what in the world a reptile brain is.
It turns out this is another way to classify different types of people. Most are mammal brains. These are the people that just follow the herd and do what everyone else does. Some are thinker brains. As you would expect, these are the types of people that like to take their time and thoroughly examine the facts before reaching a decision. Thinker brains make great CPAs & engineers.
Reptile brains are people who make quick decisions based on incomplete information. It turns out that a disproportionate number of reptile brains are very successful financially. For example, many of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are reptile brains.
It makes sense if you think about it. In the business world, there often is time to think and rethink the situation or you’ll lose ground to the competition. CEOs must make quick decisions before they have all the facts.
