Rapport is a “trusting” relationship between people. You need a trusting relationship to get to the truth and to help de-escalate tense situations. The problem is that most people, including victims and witnesses, don’t automatically trust the criminal justice professional. To get to the truth and help you de-escalate tense situations, you must master instant rapport building skills. This workshop focuses on knowing yourself and your surroundings well enough that you can connect with anyone instantly. Once you know yourself, you need to develop people skills that put you in charge while making others feel they can trust you enough to give you truthful information. Good people skills will also help you reduce the need for use of force

1. Determine your desired rapport end state
