I’m currently reading “The Definitive Guide to Body language” by Barbara and Allan Pease. This is an interesting book that doesn’t get too prescriptive, yet gives general meanings and reasons behind our unconscious postures and gesticulations. This has gotten me interested in the subject, and, using the good old “tangerine” technique in meetings, I’m intrigued by the non-verbal messages that people are giving off, it is very entertaining to sit quietly in meetings and watch what people are saying to each other without a single word being uttered!
Adam Eason, on his continually interesting blog, gives us seven telltale signs of a big fat lie coming our way. So head over and have a read, and then watch with interest in your next meeting and see if you can spot the porkies - it’s almost as if you can see noses growing, Pinnochio style!
