345: How to Succeed with People: Leadership & Charisma

345: How to Succeed with People: Leadership & Charisma

Group dynamics fascinate me. Why does one person take on the leadership role almost immediately without any need for introduction or approval? How did that one person decide he was the joker? And why is there always someone lurking in the back, avoiding eye contact and trying to be invisible?

I've been hosting training courses for 13 years now, and I've seen time and time again how we all tend to assume different social roles in group settings with enough people. It's not always consistent or predictable but these patterns almost always emerge. Why?

On this week's podcast, you'll meet a behavioral researcher who has uncovered some powerful truths about human behavior that can help you be more effective in all your social interactions both personal and professional. We cover body language, topics of conversation, and so much more.

You'll Learn:

  • Why negative talk can leave a negative impression on you as a person
  • How to gush, not gossip, to uplift and influence others around you
  • Eye contact vs. no eye contact: finding the balance
  • What to do with your hands when you talk
