Getting someone to tell the truth is an essential skill that very few people possess. In the boardroom, the classroom, or our own homes, every day we interact with others and try to get the truth from them. People are often untruthful out of fear of negative consequences associated with divulging information. But if a person is made to forget the long-term outcomes, he or she can be influenced to disclose sensitive information that's being withheld.

The Code of Trust is based on the system Dreeke devised, tested, and implemented during years of fieldwork at the highest levels of national security. Applying his system first to himself, he rose up through federal law enforcement and then taught his system to law enforcement and military officials throughout the country, and later to private-sector clients. The Code of Trust has since elevated executives to leadership and changed the culture of entire companies, making them happier and more productive as morale soared.

Excellent book filled with practical examples
While I was familiar with nearly all of the techniques, strategies and social psychology cited, I found it so helpful to learn from an ex FBI law enforcement expert how it is used in espionage and with criminals.
I ordered the paperback too. A rare act but, this book has lists of techniques I wish to have visual access to.

Excellent author and narrator
Love this book, Some information over laped from his previous book, but still a great read. Narrator is superb. I Personally can't get into audio books if narration has an annoying, raspy voice.
