Corporate Training in Body Language, Microexpressions & Human Behaviour
Kanan Tandi — India's first certified microexpressions trainer — teaches your people to read and use nonverbal behaviour: in the boardroom, at the interview table, on the sales floor and at the security checkpoint.
Trusted by leading organisations & institutions
Training built around your team's real situations
Four tracks, each customised to your sector — with a clear answer to "what does my team walk away with?"
Hire the person, not the performance
Structured behaviour observation for recruiters and interview panels — read candidates beyond the rehearsed answers, and do it fairly.
- A repeatable framework for observing candidates without bias
- Baseline-first reading: what a nervous candidate looks like vs a deceptive one
- Question techniques that surface authentic behaviour
Read the buyer before they speak
Nonverbal intelligence for sales and negotiation — buying signals, resistance cues, and the trust-building first minutes of a meeting.
- Spot engagement, hesitation and objection before they're voiced
- Know when to push, pause or close
- Body language that builds trust across the table
Command the room without saying a word
Executive presence for leaders, founders and senior managers — posture, gesture, voice and space in boardrooms and town halls.
- A personal presence audit on video, with concrete fixes
- Reading the room: who's with you, who's checked out
- High-stakes moments: investor pitches, media, difficult conversations
See the anomaly before it becomes an incident
Ekman-lineage microexpressions and behaviour-detection training for security forces, aviation and frontline staff — delivered for CISF, the Indian Army and airport teams.
- The 7 universal expressions and how concealed emotion leaks
- Behavioural screening: baselines, clusters and anomalies — not gut feel
- De-escalation cues for customer-facing frontline teams
What this looks like in practice
An aviation team needed two things at once: security staff who could screen behaviour without profiling, and cabin/ground staff who could read passenger frustration early enough to defuse it.
Kanan ran a two-day on-site program — mornings on the science (baselines, microexpressions, cluster reading), afternoons on live drills built from the team's own incident scenarios. Screening staff left with a structured observe-decide-escalate protocol; passenger-facing staff left with a short de-escalation playbook they still use in briefings.
