Captivate: The Science of Succeeding with People | Vanessa Van Edwards | Talks at Google

As a human behavior investigator, Vanessa Van Edwards studies the hidden forces that drive our behavior patterns in her lab-and she’s cracked the code. In Captivate she shares a wealth of valuable shortcuts, systems and behavior hacks for taking charge of their interactions at work, at home, and in any social situation. These aren’t the people skills you learned in school. This is the first comprehensive, science backed, real life manual on human behavior and a completely new approach to building connections.

    This woman will save my life and my marriage. I just found out about her last night and have been absorbing her for 24 hours subconsciously passively listening in my sleep in the background and am actively seeking her book. Thank YOU for this recovering awkward person for showing the rest of us STILL awkwardly practicing people there is HOPE for us! THANK YOU!

    3 days ago I was searching on KZread for a good men perfume for dating. From video to video, I suddenly found myself in Vanessa's channel. starting from that moment, I forgot the perfume and I couldn't stop myself from watching her talks. I can tell that I become addicted to her. It might because she is beautiful, attractive, passionate, talkative,nice, feminine, or smart. But what I am really sure about is the fact that from every single video I learnt something new from Vanessa. she is very insightful, thanks to coincidence that guided me to reach here!

I think people who are very passionate about what they do then they will use hand gestures with their communication. I love Tedtalks. I am making the Tedxtalks apart of my life. I will smile for real because they helped me with my self improvement mission. I want to keep a genuine smile. Keep working hard with self improvement, growth, and living my best life.

    Regarding hand gesture frequency and view frequency of TEDtalks, this is just a correlation. Correlation is not causation. Some other factor might be contributing both the high frequency of hand gestures as well as views. This makes more sense if you consider that a TEDtalk consisting just of hand gestures and nothing else would be unlikely to go viral. She’s implying that more hand gestures converts to more views, but this would have to be tested experimentally. This is the danger of data mining.

My point is that I don't think a so-so Talk could be made significantly more appealing if the presenter merely waved their arms about more. Conversely, if one listened to and did not watch a really good TEDTalk with lots of body language, I don't think it's estimation would drop to mediocre.

    So... contempt and disgust are what I missed. My question is based on your method to be certain that you read the facial expression right, when you ask to have them express their feelings by asking if they are clear or have any concerns and they don't respond with an explanation; or going over the aspect of the topic that caused the initial facial expression you notice it changed, do you leave it to say the individual stance has been adjusted or make a third attempt?

    I think she mentioned that this was merely "interesting" and didn't draw a lot of conclusions off of that fact. There will always be outliers and nuances that are hard to see from the data, but the good thing is, there will always bee outliers in either direciton if you have enough data, so they effectively cancel out. I feel good conclusions should be drawn from average data, while investigating deeply into outliers. But again, she didn't really dwell on that point much

I then reinforce my statements with a universal body language hand gesture using my middle finger and a smile on my face. Then walk out of the building. Find the nearest computer and use the search terms "Jobs in my area." Repeat as needed.
