How To Size People Up Like An FBI Behavioral Analyst

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 31:40 — 43.5MB)

Whether walking through a dimly lit parking lot, meeting someone new, or even evaluating the behavior of people close to you, the ability to read people and size them up could mean the difference between safety and danger.

This episode teaches you how to think like an FBI Behavioral Analyst.

Robin Dreeke, who headed the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Program, joins me to discuss his framework for predicting human behavior.

Dreeke wrote the book, “Sizzling People Up”, based on his years in counterespionage. 

His unit was part of the Behavioral Analysis Unit that focuses on violent crime—popularly known as the serial killer unit.

Now, in private consulting, Dreeke teaches how anyone can learn to predict what others will do in the most important situations. 

Robin Dreeke is here to help keep you safe in public and online by learning to read people.
