Detecting A Liar At Work In 7 Steps
By Julio Vasquez, Marketing —
I’ve been researching articles where parties claim to being ‘experts’ in finding out if someone is lying or not. There are a variety of sources such as TV shows, internet articles, and YouTube videos where we can find these so-called experts. Consumers seem to be very entertained with the idea of these experts and lie-detection skills.
Ideas to spot a liar at work
The article, “How to Spot a Liar at Work,’ by Carol Kinsey Goman, there are 7 steps in deception detection. 1) Beginning with a baseline – or observing body language, eye contact and blink rate. 2) Watching for Signs of Stress – a simple sign is too much eye contact, and pupil dilation. 3) Listening to what a person is telling you – choice of words often reveal more about a liar than they realize. 4) “Emotional Faking” – simulating facial expressions for assoicated feelings, or just noticing a certain expression for longer than 5-10 seconds. 5) Incongruence – when non-verbal behavior contradicts words. 6) Telltale Four – or a cluster of nonverbal cues that provide deception indications; face touching, leaning away, hand rubbing, or crossed arms. 7) Recognize that your ability to detect falsehoods can be messed with.
