We are looking for a highly perceptive and intuitive Room Reader to join our team. This unique role requires an individual with exceptional observational skills, emotional intelligence, and the ability to interpret non-verbal communication and group dynamics in real-time. The Room Reader plays a critical role in environments where understanding the mood, energy, and unspoken interactions of a group can influence decision-making, communication strategies, and overall success.
As a Room Reader, you will be responsible for assessing the emotional climate of meetings, events, or social gatherings, and providing insights to leaders, facilitators, or hosts to help them adapt their approach accordingly. This role is especially valuable in high-stakes business meetings, negotiations, training sessions, and public speaking engagements where reading the room can make a significant difference in outcomes.
The ideal candidate will have a background in psychology, communication, or behavioral sciences, and a proven ability to remain neutral, discreet, and professional in diverse settings. You must be able to quickly identify subtle cues such as body language, tone of voice, facial expressions, and group energy shifts, and translate these observations into actionable feedback.
This position may involve working in corporate, educational, or entertainment environments, and may require travel depending on client needs. Flexibility, adaptability, and a calm demeanor are essential traits for success in this role.
If you are someone who naturally senses the unspoken dynamics in a room and can articulate those insights clearly and constructively, we encourage you to apply for this unique and impactful position.
