About this listen

From a former FBI Special Agent specializing in behavior analysis and recruiting spies comes a handbook filled with his proven strategies on how to instantly read people and influence how they perceive you, so you can easily turn on the like switch.

The Like Switch is packed with all the tools you need for turning strangers into friends, whether you are on a sales call, a first date, or a job interview. As a Special Agent for the FBI’s National Security Division’s Behavioral Analysis Program, Dr. Jack Schafer developed dynamic and breakthrough strategies for profiling terrorists and detecting deception. Now, Dr. Schafer has evolved his proven-on-the-battlefield tactics for the day-to-day, but no less critical battle of getting people to like you.

In The Like Switch, he presents these techniques for how you can influence, attract, and win people over. Learn how to think and react like your favorite TV investigators from Criminal Minds or CSI as Dr. Schafer shows you how to improve your LQ (Likeability Quotient), “spot the lie” both in person and online, master nonverbal cues that influence how people perceive you, and turn up or turn down the intensity of a relationship.

Dr. Schafer cracks the code on making great first impressions, building lasting relationships, and understanding others’ behavior to learn what they really think about you. With tips and techniques that hold the key to taking control of your communications, interactions, and relationships, The Like Switch shows you how to read others and get people to like you for a moment or a lifetime.

This book is as informative as it is entertaining. It had changed the way i go about my interactions with people before i had eve finished the 2nd chapter! and by the time it was finished i still wanted to hear more.
The chapter on diffusing anger and the anger cycle I found to be a particularly intriguing idea and can help so many get themselves out of prickly situations.

excellent listen.

I couldn't understand why people love my husband instantly. They feel calm and relaxed and he makes them feel at ease. I have changed and can get immediate results but using these tips makes it soooo much easier. And it's so simple. It works on many levels. What I didn't realise is that my face was always dead pan with no 'friend' signals. Now I do friend signals and it is the like switch

Great read learnt a LOT for immediate results
