Description

In a televised social experiment before millions of viewers, police sergeant Derrick Levasseur demonstrated that techniques used by undercover detectives could help people achieve their goals in everyday social situations. The result: he walked away with more than half a million dollars. In The Undercover Edge, Derrick shares his personal mind-set surrounding human behavior and motivation. Even more than that, he provides easy yet groundbreaking tools acquired while overcoming personal adversity and working more than a decade in law enforcement, showing listeners: ● The power of observation and creating a profile
● The effect of using silence to extract and evaluate information
● The benefits of interpreting body language and developing your sixth sense ● The importance of self-awareness and adapting to your environment
● The value of developing a personal ops plan with a defined mission Derrick's approach will help you create a solid foundation at home, build confidence in the workplace, and become a stronger, more capable leader.

        October 2, 2017
        In this debut, Levasseur, a Rhode Island police sergeant, shares hard-won self-help tips, to sometimes gimmicky but generally entertaining effect. “Think of this book as a guided tour of the major lessons I learned as a street cop, a detective, and a supervisor,” he begins. The first step
        is being honest about your own strengths and weaknesses and those of others. He advises readers to “know your target”—the person on whom you wish to make an impression—such as by remembering his or her birthday. Body language is also key, he teaches. Continuing to indulge in the police-lingo theme a little too insistently, he points out the importance of “headquarters,” or having a happy home life. Leading with confidence is the subject of one of the most appealing lessons. Another of the best lessons is on creative visualization. One of the toughest lessons—one Levasseur learned firsthand after he fatally shot a suspect (and was subsequently cleared by a grand jury)—concerns growing through adversity. He wraps everything up with a succinct “debriefing.” Though the cop-talk conceit can seem hackneyed, Levasseur’s fresh and candid perspective makes for an empowering self-help guide. Agent: Steven Harris, CSG Literary.
