EP 611: Jeffrey Sanow

​Reading People in High-Pressure Environments 

Jeffrey Sanow, a former senior intelligence officer with the CIA, spent decades navigating high-pressure environments where reading people wasn’t just a skill—it was a matter of survival. How do you make decisions when the stakes couldn’t be higher? Starting as a Peace Corps volunteer, followed by over two decades of service in the Central Intelligence Agency, Jeffrey reveals what years of fieldwork taught him about influence, persuasion, and the power of truly understanding others. Whether you're leading a team, negotiating a deal, or simply seeking to communicate more effectively, these insights will transform the way you approach every conversation. ​
