About This Course

Most people (including the experts) don’t read strangers well. It’s time we take nothing for granted when talking to strangers. Or maybe anyone. Seriously, I think these books should be mandatory study for professionals working in (or around those that do) fraud detection in any form, including auditors or accountants.

As much of Malcolm Gladwell’s latest book Talking to Strangers: What we should know about the people we don’t know was actually based on the research of Timothy Levine, and described in detail in his book: Duped: Truth-Default Theory and the Social Science of Lying and Deception – I decided you needed to hear about BOTH books in this webinar.

Please note: This is NOT your typical CPD course! This instructor hosts and records a live, "CPE (CPD) Book Club" regularly and this is one of her popular recordings. Polling questions throughout will not be required (they were only required live), but they are still within the recording for your entertainment only. We truly hope you enjoy this unique CPD course!
