Course Overview

It is well recognized that we do business with people we know, like, and trust. Whether you are a manager, negotiator, facilitator, or parent, developing emotional intelligence and interacting effectively with others is essential to building strong and lasting relationships.
In many interactions, individuals place too much emphasis on spoken words, which can sometimes result in misunderstandings or even relationship breakdowns. This program will equip you with the ability to read and evaluate others through both verbal and nonverbal behaviors, helping you assess credibility and detect possible deception.
In this Managing Emotions & Evaluating Truthfulness training course, you will go beyond analyzing words alone. You will learn to interpret all five core channels of communication while mastering your own emotions and effectively managing those of others.
