Cues and Charisma (with Vanessa Van Edwards)

Whether you realize it or not, you are constantly sending signals to everyone around you. These signals tell others whether or not you are interested, whether or not you are interesting, whether you truly believe what you’re saying or if you’re just faking it, whether you’re confident or insecure, and whether or not they should hire or do business with you. Today’s guest, Vanessa Van Edwards, calls these signals “cues”, and she argues in her new book of the same name that we can actually learn to identify them in others and even shape our own cues to better connect with co-workers and friends. In this episode, we discuss the role of charisma in life and work, and how cues affect our communication and effectiveness.  Mentioned in this episode: Please Support Our Sponsors: Butcherbox: Butcherbox.com/accidental EarnIn: Download EarnIn on the Apple app store or Google Play
