#219: Robin Dreeke – How to earn someone’s trust (from a former FBI special agent)
Description
Robin Dreeke is a human behavior expert, best-selling author, and professional speaker with a pretty incredible background. As a Marine Corps Officer and retired FBI Special Agent, he served as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, where he honed his skills in recruiting spies. He literally built relationships with citizens of other countries, earned their trust, and convinced them to become spies FOR the United States intelligence.
I recently read two of his books, which I highly recommend: The Code of Trust, which teaches you to inspire trust, and It’s Not All About Me: The Top Ten Techniques for Building Quick Rapport with Anyone.
Robin has a unique background in helping us understand humans and how to build relationships with them, and that’s exactly what we discuss in this episode.
It’s Not All About Me: The Top Ten Techniques for Building Quick Rapport with Anyone
