    자주 묻는 질문

    Micro-expressions are involuntary, split-second facial flashes that occur before a person has the chance to edit their reaction or put on a professional mask. These lightning-fast movements typically last between 1/25 and 1/5 of a second, which is faster than the blink of an eye. They serve as an emotional preview notification, broadcasting a person's true feelings even when they are trying their hardest to hide them during an interaction.

    In negotiations, micro-expressions provide a hidden advantage by revealing feelings that contradict spoken words. For example, a potential partner might call a proposal fair while a half-second flicker of the lip reveals they actually feel insulted or superior. By watching for these leaks rather than just listening to the words, successful negotiators and leaders can gain deeper insights into the other party's true stance before a polished sentence is even delivered.

    Research suggests that about 80 to 90% of people miss micro-expressions entirely without specific training. This happens because the expressions are incredibly brief and occur while most individuals are preoccupied with listening to spoken words or planning their next sentence. Because these involuntary reactions happen faster than a blink, they require focused attention and specialized knowledge of body language to be detected and interpreted correctly in a business setting.
