QUOTES:
'I would rather you be aware of the cues that are being sent to you to know, 'I want this or I don't' because they are that powerful, that if someone has bad intentions, they can still produce trust.'
'This is the challenge we have as cue readers, do you want to address the emotion or the cue?'
'I think that people who doubt their ideas, and they doubt themselves, that leaks in their cues.'
'High neurotics prevent crises from happening in the first place.'
'I would rather live in hard truth than in ignorant bliss.'
'Charisma is the perfect blend of being likable and powerful.'
'Competence without warmth leaves people feeling suspicious.'
'The best thing you can do is open with warmth, hit them with competence, and end with purpose.
