As a Certified Forensic Interviewer, he achieved the highest professional designation available in the field ofinterview and interrogation. Michael spent over a decade training investigators around the world on the successful application of non-confrontational interview and interrogationtechniques, earning the Outstanding Contribution Award from Homeland Security along the way. Michael transitioned from educating investigators to educating executives after his research and experience unlocked two key realizations. First, the best leaders and interrogators capitalize on the same two core skills - vision and influence. Second, the cognitive processes that lead customers to commit to saying, "I'll buy it", employees to commit to saying "I'll do it" and suspects to commit to truthfully saying "I did it" are all nearly identical. These realizations drove Michael to develop the Disciplined Listening Method by integrating current business communication research and best practices with the most successful non-confrontational interview and interrogation techniques. The resulting educational content represents a new and in-depth approach to applying strategic, ethical observation and persuasion techniques across the spectrum of business conversations.Michael has been invited by companies, government agencies and executive groups to facilitate his programs across the United States, Canada, The United Kingdom, Ireland, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. He has led over 1,500 programs and educated over 15,000 participants from over 50 countries. He teaches participants to activate the truth in the areas of leadership communication, sales, negotiation, conflict resolution, customer service, candidate interviews, family conversations and influential instruction. CEO's, executive teams, sales leaders, and Human Resources leaders all rely on Michael to teach them the skills, techniques and perspectives necessary to encourage people to share sensitive information, under vulnerable circumstances, and in the face of consequences...

Welcome to the Triple P Life Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia welcomes Michael Reddington, a certified forensic interviewer (CFI) and the author of "The Disciplined Listening Method." Michael shares his expertise in applying strategic observation and persuasive communication skills to uncover hidden value in high-stakes conversations. Drawing from his experience in investigations and teaching interrogation techniques, Michael explains how leaders, negotiators, sales professionals, and HR personnel can effectively navigate challenging interactions to achieve desired outcomes. Episode Takeaways: The ability to find common ground is crucial for successful communication, regardless of the context or the person you're speaking with. Illustrating your understanding of a situation before investigating the problem and seeking accountability can help reduce resistance and encourage open communication. Using the word "you" in conversations can be dangerous, as it may trigger defensiveness and hinder progress. Instead, make illustrative statements to demonstrate your understanding without assigning blame. When faced with a "brick wall" in a conversation, work with it instead of against it. Avoid arguing rationally against emotional problems, and instead, try to understand the underlying issues and find a way forward together. Leaders must consistently provide evidence of their trustworthiness through their actions and follow-through. Failing to do so can lead to a breakdown in trust and a decline in team performance. Deciding when to have a "no BS conversation" depends on the context and totality of circumstances. Factors to consider include the clarity of expectations, the resources provided, the magnitude of the issue, and the level of support given. Effective communication is a skill set that can be learned and developed, whether in business or personal relationships. Focusing on desired outcomes and putting emotions aside can help generate the results you seek.

Michael is the President of Inquasive Incorporated and is renowned for his expertise in applying non-confrontational interview and interrogation techniques to business communication and leadership development. In an engaging conversation, Michael Reddington shares his inspiring journey from his early career in special education to becoming a leader in the field of forensic interviewing and business communication. His path began in loss prevention for major retailers, where he discovered his talent for conducting interviews and interrogations.

This episode delves into Michael's profound commitment to helping business leaders enhance their communication skills and unlock greater value from high-impact conversations, perfectly aligning with the Arete Coach Podcast's exploration of excellence in executive coaching. In this conversation, Reddington talks about Disciplined Listening. Reddington's disciplined listening method is built on the foundations of active listening but goes beyond it. Disciplined Listening focuses on two fundamental principles: a. Uncovering hidden value in every conversation; b. Creating the communication experience other people require so they will do what we need them to do. It involves paying attention to subtle cues like pauses, changes in intonation, emotions, and specific word choices. The method emphasizes understanding why people choose to share sensitive information under vulnerable circumstances. It's about creating an environment where people feel comfortable sharing the truth, rather than just appearing to listen. Disciplined listening involves adapting the conversation setting and approach to make the other person feel at ease and more likely to share openly. The Arete Coach Podcast seeks to explore the art and science of executive coaching. You can find out more about this podcast at aretecoach.io. This episode was recorded via Zoom on August 30th, 2024.

If we're not learning, we're not listening."

"If you're going to hire for it, you better know how to ask for it, and you better know how to create experiential opportunities for people to demonstrate it." "If somebody lies to me, if somebody gives me an excuse, it's likely because they're trying to save face and avoid a consequence." "Excuses pave the highway to accountability."
