Description

Have you ever felt you’re not getting through to the person you’re talking to, or not coming across the way you intend? You’re not alone.

That’s the bad news. But there is something we will do about it. Heidi Grant Halvorson, social psychologist and bestselling writer, explains why we’re continuously misunderstood and how we will fix that.

Most of us assume that other people see us as we see ourselves, and that they see us as we really are. But neither is true. Our everyday interactions are colored by subtle biases that distort how others see us—and also shape our perceptions of them.

You can learn to clarify the message you’re sending once you understand the lenses that shape perception:

• Trust. Are you friend or foe?
• Power. How much influence do you have over me?
• Ego. Do you make me feel insecure?

Based on decades of research in psychology and social science, Halvorson explains how these lenses impact our interactions—and how to manage them.

Once you understand the science of perception, you’ll communicate more clearly, send the messages you would like to send, and fortify your personal relationships. You’ll also turn out to be a fairer and more accurate judge of others. Halvorson even offers an evidence-based action plan for repairing a damaged reputation.

This book is not about making a good impression, even supposing it is going to certainly help you do that. It’s about coming across as you intend. It’s about the authenticity we all strive for.
