About this audiobook
People--friends, family members, work colleagues, salespeople--lie to us all the time. Daily, hourly, constantly. None of us is immune, and all of us are victims. According to studies by several different researchers, most of us encounter nearly 200 lies a day.
Now there's something we can do about it. Liespotting links three disciplines--facial recognition training, interrogation training, and a comprehensive survey of research in the field--into a specialized body of information developed specifically to help business leaders detect deception and get the information they need to successfully conduct their most important interactions and transactions.
Some of the nation's leading business executives have learned to use these methods to root out lies in high stakes situations. Liespotting for the first time brings years of knowledge--previously found only in the intelligence community, police training academies, and universities--into the corporate boardroom, the manager's meeting, the job interview, the legal proceeding, and the deal negotiation.

Reviews for Liespotting
26 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Pretty insightful and useful tips, but I found some of the advice to be a little bit too general to apply.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Some really interesting information presented from a business perspective. Illustrating the ideas and focusing less on the business side would have made this more engaging.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great book. I can use this. My partner once described his job as getting lied to all day. He particularly saw a lot of truth in the authors reference to 'clusters' of indicators.
