in collaboration with Foley Learning
This is a four-day program based on solid research and science, designed to develop a person’s ability and skill to recognize emotions in others as a basis for evaluating truth and lies.
It covers the psychological models behind truth and lies, plus the skills required to identify ‘Hotspots’ – instances when the strain between what we are thinking and what we are feeling produce observable/audible leakage across the five channels. The course is designed to help you to read and evaluate the degree of truthfulness and credibility in what others are communicating to you.
As well as the five channel training you will also learn about memory, and how you can work out whether a statement of an event is remembered or being constructed through scientific content analysis.
You will practice and hone those skills in a safe environment with a Paul Ekman Approved Trainer.
