Sample text

We communicate best when all the members of that quartet are playing the same piece of music with the same feeling, at the same tempo, at the correct volume. Then all four parts are blending together nicely. Deception creates disharmony in that quartet and it shows in the performance. For example, my partner and I were conducting an investigation for one of our clients regarding a sum of money missing from a financial institution. There were only a small number of people who could have had access to the money and would have had any opportunity to take it.

You have now misidentified a truthful person as being deceptive. What happens to your credibility at being able to spot deception? What kind of damage have you just done to the relationship you had with this person? What kind of faith are you going to have in your ability to spot deception from someone in the future when it may be very important to be able to do so? Avoid the pitfall of making a diagnosis of a person’s honesty on the basis of a single behavior because there is no single behavior, verbal or nonverbal, that proves that a person is being truthful or deceptive.

In fact, if you are using your new deception detecting skills, you should be able to figure out when someone is embellishing a story. At the same time, though, are you ignoring some obvious warning signs of deceit because you just don’t want the rumors to be true? Do you believe his lies because to do otherwise would mean that the others were correct in warning you about this dishonest fellow? If you convince yourself that they are lying, then you will end up convincing yourself that the handsome liar is being honest.
