Recommendation

People lie all the time. Those who say they never lie, well, they’re lying. People tend to lie around 10 times a day, mostly to be polite or to avoid an uncomfortable conversation. But lies can be more consequential, so it matters if people are lying to you or telling you the truth. If you manage a business, you need to know, for example, if a job candidate is lying or if an employee is cooking the books. As former CIA officer Susan Carnicero explains in rollicking, hard-boiled commentary in this Digiday video, you can spot clear signals that can reveal a lie.

Take-Aways

  • Knowing whether someone is lying matters.
  • To identify deception, notice a person’s timing and “behavioral clusters.” 
  • Obviously truthful answers can be manipulative – so ignore them.
