#313 - Illogical Thought Patterns of Witnesses

CSI Litigation Consultant Linda Khzam, M.A. joins Bill Kanasky, Jr., Ph.D. to talk about illogical thought patterns of witnesses. Often witnesses have misconceptions about the litigation process or concerns about ramifications of their performance in the deposition, which need to be addressed before any prep can start. Bill and Linda share how they help witnesses open up so they can address any distracting thinking patterns that will prevent the witness from doing well in the prep and also talk about the biggest issue that they deal with which is witnesses trying to "win" the deposition. They explain why witness brains are hard-wired to certain thought patterns and how they have to ""rewire"" the brain in order to break these ingrained ways of thinking.
