Whether you’re at a job interview or a cocktail party, searching LinkedIn or swiping right on a dating site, you want (no - need) to understand what people are really thinking, regardless of what they're saying. Understanding what others are trying to tell you with their posture, hand gestures, eye contact (or lack thereof) or incessant fiddling with their iPhone might all be even more important than what you're projecting yourself. Do they plan on making a deal with your company? Are they lying to you? Can you trust this person with your most intimate secrets? Knowing what others are thinking can tell you when to run with an opportunity and when not to waste your time, whether at work, in a crucial negotiation or on a promising first date. Mark Bowden is a body language and behaviour expert. He is a regular contributor to CTV’s The Social as the resident body language exper. His TEDx talk has been viewed by hundreds of thousands of people. He is the author of Winning Body Language and Tame the Primitive Brain. Bowden lives in Toronto. Tracey Thomson is a business development specialist. She is the co-founder, with Mark Bowden of the communications training company Truthplane. Tracey lives in Toronto.
