Description

Captivate: The Science of Succeeding with PeopleDo you feel awkward at networking events? Do you wonder what your date really thinks of you? Do you wish you could decode people? You need to learn the science of people. As a human behavior hacker, Vanessa Van Edwards created a research lab to study the hidden forces that drive us. And she's cracked the code. In Captivate, she shares shortcuts, systems, and secrets for taking charge of your interactions at work, at home, and in any social situation.

Do you feel awkward at networking events? Do you wonder what your date really thinks of you? Do you wish you could decode people? You need to learn the science of people.

As a human behavior hacker, Vanessa Van Edwards created a research lab to study the hidden forces that drive us. And she's cracked the code. In Captivate, she shares shortcuts, systems, and secrets for taking charge of your 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 how to captivate anyone--and a completely new approach to building connections.

Just like knowing the formulas to use in a chemistry lab, or the right programming language to build an app, Captivate provides simple ways to solve people problems. You'll learn, for example...

- How to work a room: Every party, networking event, and social situation has a predictable map. Discover the sweet spot for making the most connections.
- How to read faces: It's easier than you think to speed-read facial expressions and use them to predict people's emotions.
- How to talk to anyone: Every conversation can be memorable--once you learn how certain words generate the pleasure hormone dopamine in listeners.

When you understand the laws of human behavior, your influence, impact, and income will increase significantly. What's more, you will improve your interpersonal intelligence, make a killer first impression, and build rapport quickly and authentically in any situation--negotiations, interviews, parties, and pitches. You'll never interact the same way again.

It only fits smaller wrists
This watch is beautiful, but the cuff type band is very small. (reason for minus one star). I still wear it some, but I have to keep moving it around for it to be more comfortable. If you are on the thinner side, you will love this watch. It came on time and the packaging was sturdy. All in all, it works good, it’s sharp looking, and the price is great.

For a very petite wrist
I have a child-size wrist at 5.5 inches. It is hard to find watches small enough! This watch has a 6 inch fit, fitting my arm with a little wiggle room. It has spring sides for ease of putting it on, but won't allow for stretch or adjustment. Therefore, it will be tight on a standard 7 inch wrist. I am delighted with my purchase, but was hesitant to buy based on unclear size. I wanted to clarify for you the actual size to expect. I included a pic from the top and bottom of watch on my wrist, hoping to demonstrate the snug size on a tiny arm. It's a beautiful watch with unique style, and fit.
