Zachary Kai
A Secret Service polygraph examiner teaching communication skills sounds like the setup for a thriller…but this book’s potential impact is so understated it’s almost profound: twenty-five years of high-stakes interrogations, protection details, and assessments distilled.
No gimmicks, manipulation, or strange tactics. For a man surrounded by often the most harrowing situations, his stance is one of gentle empathy, ethics, and creating space. The bridge-building here is literal: how do you get someone to trust, feel comfortable, and at peace with you?
To be human is to express oneself, and while there are infinite ways of doing so, only a few suffice.
I’ve struggled with this for a lifetime, so believe me when I say it’s perfect for anyone who communicates for a living, which is...everyone.
