Pamela Meyer at Barnes and Noble DC

There was a lively inside-the-beltway discussion at Barnes and Noble in downtown Washington DC about the deception epidemic we face today and about the new human skills we need to learn in a rapidly changing digital landscape—Liespotting author Pamela Meyer offered loads of liespotting pointers, using  Bill Clinton ,  and the liar in the desk next to you,  as examples.  Books sold out, and Liespotting shot to bestseller status in three categories on Amazon. From high stakes business deals to negotiations, Meyer’s techniques offer readers the skills to help bring trust back to business– and Meyer spoke extensively about the role of trust in reducing transaction costs for business leaders–from due diligence, to research and development, to legal negotiations and hiring decisions.
