A CFALA Women's Group Sponsored Event
Imagine how different your life would be if you could tell whether someone was lying or telling you the truth. Be it hiring a new employee, investing in a financial interest, speaking with your child about drugs, confronting your significant other about suspected infidelity, or even dating someone new, having the ability to unmask a lie can have far-reaching and even life-altering consequences. As former CIA officer, Susan Carnicero is among the world’s best at recognizing deceptive behavior. Through fascinating anecdotes from her intelligence career, she will teach the audience how to recognize deceptive behaviors, both verbal and nonverbal, that we all tend to display when we respond to questions untruthfully. She will share her methodology and proven techniques on asking questions that elicit the truth.
