Many of us are finding this new post-COVID “normal” difficult. To help us all adjust, this month's book recommendations focus on recognizing nonverbal cues and understanding how our brains work. These important skills not only will help us better understand those around us, but they are also important skills to have in a successful career.
Brain Rules by John Medina. This book provides 12 principles for surviving and thriving at work, home, and school. Dr. Medina focuses on why we stress, pay attention, lose memory, and so much more.
What Every Body is Saying by Joe Navarro. As a former FBI counterintelligence officer and recognized expert on nonverbal behavior, Mr. Navarro explains how to speed read people: decode sentiments and behaviors, and avoid hidden pitfalls. Learning how your body language is perceived can help you influence what your boss, family, friends, and strangers think of you. It can even help you in a job interview.
Both books can be found on Amazon as well as other book retailers.
