Quick takeaways

Building trust and connection requires starting with conditional trust and being discerning, avoiding projecting past traumas onto new experiences.

Effective communication techniques for building authority and credibility include maintaining eye contact, using a confident tone of voice, and respecting personal space.

Reading people and detecting deception can be done through nonverbal cues like tone of voice, body language, and specific details in conversations.

Observing great leaders provides valuable lessons in authority, communication, and trust-building, emphasizing traits like authenticity, active listening, and projecting one's voice.

Building Trust and Connection

When going on a first date or starting a new relationship, it is important to build trust and connection. Instead of giving unconditional trust, start with conditional trust and be discerning. Avoid projecting past traumas onto new experiences. Use open-ended questions like 'Tell me about yourself' to allow the other person to share their story and build a connection.

She has also protected presidents George W. Bush, William J. Clinton, and George H.W. Bush. When not safeguarding the world’s most high value assets, Evy worked complex criminal investigations, operated undercover, and was an interrogator for the agency’s elite polygraph unit specially trained in the art of lie detection, human behavior, and cognitive influence.

Evy’s actions as a first responder during the 9/11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City bestowed her the United States Secret Service Valor Award.
