Micro-expression, can you use this advanced technology?

I believe that many people's understanding of micro-expressions is triggered by the popularity of American TV series Don't Lie to me and the hot speculation of a variety show in China. There are many lies in life, and people's facial expressions are more real than words and actions. If you can still apply micro-expression technology in the workplace, you can hold the audience! Today, let's take a look at how micro-expressions work in the workplace.

1. How does micro-expression make you invincible in the recruitment interview?

The expert replied: During the interview, most examiners in large enterprises, especially foreign companies, have received professional training, and the topics are carefully designed, mainly to examine the candidates' on-the-spot expressions, attitudes, emotions, on-the-spot reactions, teamwork awareness, self-confidence and the accuracy and credibility of the answers, and then comprehensively consider their personality traits in the interview to consider whether they meet the job requirements. According to the survey, many candidates were unfortunately eliminated because of problems in expression and attitude.

1. Smile, representing confidence; And a slightly inclined smile means that you are comfortable and friendly; Tip: Smile must be true. If it's a fake smile, it's easy to show flaws. On the one hand, the fake smile comes and goes quickly, while the real smile comes from the heart and the process is relatively complete. In addition, a real smile can only be accomplished with the help of muscles near the corner of the eye, which usually shows wrinkles in the corner of the eye, while a fake smile is almost a feeling of smiling without smiling, and the muscles in the mouth are stiff and unreal.

2. Fingertips form a spire: self-confidence. Studies show that it is difficult to align your hands and fingers when you are nervous.

It doesn't matter if you often hold glasses or fiddle with ties and necklaces, but if you are in a position like sales, you may be insecure and uneasy.

4. Finger rubbing against the palm is anxiety; Biting your nails is a sense of insecurity.

Put your hands in your pockets, look around, dare not look directly at each other, and show nervousness and fear, and have no confidence in yourself.

6. Biting your lips and scratching your head means you are embarrassed, nervous and at a loss.

7. Mouth slightly open, eyes wide open, indicating that the other party is wrong; Flip your lips aside to show disdain.

8. Interrupting conversations frequently and making cut-off gestures show that this person has a strong opinion.

Coping strategies:

The interviewer's response to stress is what the interviewer particularly wants to examine. The interviewer will even deliberately set stress questions and constantly ask the interviewer to observe the candidate's ability to resist stress, reaction speed, flexibility and creativity.

In order to show your best and true strength in the interview, you need to decompress and relax before the interview. Chew gum, listen to music, take a deep breath, meditate or imagine positively before the interview. These methods can effectively reduce stress and relieve tension.

In addition, when interviewing, you must know the etiquette and respect every examiner without losing confidence. This must be borne in mind from the heart and sincerely. Smile and lean forward slightly to show positive concern. Eyes are the windows of the soul. Try to make eyes full of goodwill and spirits to interact with examiners and always show their enthusiasm and concern.

2. The use of micro-expressions in negotiation

When negotiating, we can use micro-expressions to distinguish whether the other party is deliberately provocative, shirking responsibility or lying, so as to know ourselves and ourselves, effectively influence and convince the other party and gain the initiative in negotiation.

1. Answer the question stiffly-a typical lie.

2. Rub your nose-cover up the truth (the sponge in a man's nose itches easily when lying).

3. Lift your chin and wrinkle your lips-awkward.

4. Chin raised, mouth drooping-self-reproach.

5. The other person's mouth slightly rises, take it back-you are wrong.

6. When you speak, pick up one shoulder or hold your lower lip-indicating that you are extremely uncertain about what you are saying.

7. The inconsistency between body and language shows that he is lying, and his facial expression is asymmetric. This emotion is probably in disguise. For example, when you lie, you may nod your head for a moment and then shake your head to deny it.

8. The corners of the mouth are upturned and the lips are closed-contempt.

Coping strategies:

Learn to recognize each other's bottom line and try not to push each other to the wall.

In many negotiations, it is not only a way to protect yourself, but also a way to know yourself and know yourself. In fact, both sides at the negotiating table usually have some sense. When negotiating, both sides are very nervous because of the pressure of the target, which will be expressed in the form of micro-expressions, but you need keen insight to discover the true emotions and inner expressions of the other side. Eyes and eyebrows to show firmness and confidence.

Since we can't control micro-expressions, we should strive to improve the level of emotional management. Micro-expression can be used by me, but it can't be controlled by it. This technology seems to be intended to understand others, but in fact, it is more important to know yourself. For us, especially young people who have just entered the workplace, self-cultivation, self-learning and self-growth are compulsory courses in life. Only by continuous cultivation can you improve your internal strength, self-management level and insight, and your life will change accordingly.
