EP 202: FBI Agent Joe Navarro on Observation, Curiosity and Reading People 

How to optimise what we do, say, see and feel day-to-day.

Joe Navarro spent 25 years at the FBI working as an agent and supervisor in the areas of counterintelligence and counterterrorism. Joe is internationally recognised as an expert in the study of non-verbal behaviour and has written many best selling books on human behaviour. He is frequently featured on programs such as The Today Show, Fox News, and Good Morning America. In this episode, we discover how to truly optimise what we do, say, see and feel day-to-day.
​
Here's what we discuss in this week's show:​​​​​​​​
  • When Joe is asked what he does, how does he like to reply?
  • At what age did Joe discover his gift for reading people?
  • What did his Mother see that gave her the impression Joe could read people?
  • Are there skills to be learnt on how to become an outstanding observer?
  • How did Joe know what to look for and what it meant at such a young age?
  • The FBI approached Joe - what gave him the confidence to work with the FBI?
  • Why Joe is always looking for comfort or discomfort.
  • When you see someone bounce their leg, twiddle their thumbs, scratch, the brain requires it. Can we rewrite our brains?
  • What are the tells for someone who is genuinely listening and interested in our conversation?
  • How does Joe build comfort when walking into a room, sitting down for coffee with someone or stepping onto a stage?
  • Is mirroring a real tool in non-verbal communication?
  • How much does a handshake communicate?
  • Is Joe a people watcher when away from work? 
  • When Joe is in the corporate world being briefed on jobs, what observations is he making? As a corporate culture are we anxious, insecure, disempowered, aggressive, etc?
  • When Joe is watching someone present, what are the top 3 things that give him the idea they are in control and know their stuff?
  • Joe is a fan of Winston Churchill; What is the most profound learning he has taken from the life of Churchill?
  • Joe is a lifelong learner. What are his learning rituals?
  • Does Joe use 3 x 5 cards in his pocket, a tip given by Steven Covey?
  • People say "I’m fine"… what’s the number one tell that things are not all well.
  • How has Joe gone about instilling a sense of curiosity and observation in his children?
  • Can you observe when you can't see someone?​

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
