Have you ever wanted the superpower to be able to tell what people really think and feel about you? Facial Coding is the next best thing! People lie with their words all of the time and will often tell you what they think you want to hear. But on today’s episode, Dan Hill shares some of the tricks that he has learned over years of working as a facial coding expert that will help you cut through these lies and get to the truth. Being able to understand what people really think by understanding their facial expressions can give you insight that will help you land more clients, preserve good business relationships, build a healthy team, and so much more. It’s more than just about reading facial cues, it’s about having the emotional intelligence to truly understand the people around you and how they feel!
Key Takeaways Being able to read how people truly feel is essential to all aspects of running a business - the key to this is understanding facial cues.
