Lie detection for non-expert: How not to be lied to again!
We are likely to be lied to two to three times in the first ten minute when we meet a stranger. Research also show that we lied on average ten to 200 times a day! Whether malicious or white lies, it is important that we equip with the necessary skills to spot lies and uncover hidden emotions in the people we interact with. Know someone is lying or has something to hide can a skill to save us some money and keep us safe! The ability to detect lies promptly is particularly vital for professionals whose job requiring them to ascertain truth, such as CFOs, HR manager, auditors, investigator, etc. In this course, participants will be invited to read and interpret various body language and facial expression, and detect potential deception through spotting incongruent body language and facial expression.
An emerging lie detection approach in corporate world is through the combined use of behavioral science, verbal analysis, questioning skills and psychology. Non-verbal signals such as body movements and facial expression have been one of the key sources behavioral scientists believe we can tap on to interpret true meaning of messages. Researches show that these facial expression and bodily movement or reaction are difficult, if not impossible, to be controlled consciously without showing sign of such controls. By paying attention on these non-verbal signals and with appropriate practice we may be able to spot incongruent signals that may suggest lies or concealments.
In this course, we will also debunk some of the myths about lies. We will discuss whether it is truth that if liar will look to their right and they will not look us in the eyes. One of the important takeaways from this course is that we will have ability to encourage truthful interaction with people in our professional and personal life.
