Ep. 237 - Nonverbal Influence: It's Not What You Think


Listen Later

Welcome to today's podcast episode — a VIP backstage pass to the covert world of nonverbal influence in the courtroom.

I know you're searching for answers, eager to master the art of nonverbal communication, and your Finnish mama is here to deliver. But not in the way you expect. 😜

I'm giving you the lowdown on eye contact, voice, and body language, under ONE condition —  promise me you'll use these steps to be strategic, purposeful, and to ethically enhance the work you're already doing, not to manipulate or replace it.

Alright, I’ll leave ya to it. 

 

Xo, Sari

 

Quote:

  • “How do we communicate to the jury that this person is an outlier, and that they should ignore them? We can teach the jury to ignore them. We never look at them. We never make eye contact with them. I bet you never thought about using eye contact in a systematic way of not looking at somebody. You are so trained to make eye contact, it never even enters your brain that most of the time, you can use it and not look at people on purpose because you're trying to do some cool shit. In service to you, your case, and your client. Not to manipulate, or to be unethical.”
