Summary

Raj Shamani interviews body language expert Mark Bowden on how to command respect and trust through non-verbal cues. Bowden explains that predictability, open gestures, and maximizing personal territory signal credibility to the primitive brain. He advises against fidgeting and suggests using "borrowed credibility" by associating with valued individuals. The discussion also covers influencing others through empathy and adopting the relaxed, investigative body language of a buyer rather than an aggressive seller.
