These were the words spoken by Paul Bremer, Head of US occupation in Iraq on December 13th, 2003…after the successful capture of one of the world’s most elusive terrorists…Saddam Hussein.
But for the years leading up to that crucial moment in American and world history, America’s special forces searched desperately for Saddam Hussein without luck.
Fortunes for the pursuit of intelligence to capture Saddam would change when a young and very green Army negotiator stepped off a plane to help.
This man’s name is Eric Maddox, and he is our special guest on today’s show. Upon his deployment, Eric quickly found the interrogation training he received in the military proved ineffective in the field…and so he developed his own strategy predicated on what he calls empathy based listening, the structure and details of which you’ll hear him unpack on the show.
In this Episode: Eric retells the play-by-play story of the interrogations that led to Saddam Hussein’s capture Eric has conducted over 2,700 interrogations in 25 countries around the world, and shares what he’s learned about the most effective forms of listening in order to influence Eric has taken those skills and created a training program called Empathy Based Listening which he delivers via keynotes and corporate workshops to banking, insurance, wealth management, medical and non-for-profit industries…and he shares some of those powerful techniques with you today
