This is what your face says about your personality

Breakfast with Martin Bester spoke to certified profiler and forensic psychophysiologist about what people’s faces says about them and their needs.
According to Dr Lizelle Grobler, a certified profiler and forensic psychophysiologist with a PhD in metaphysical science and a master’s degree in neuro-linguistic programming, your personality is reflected in your face.
But it’s about more than just your facial expressions. Proper facial profiling reveals valuable information about who someone is or what their needs are.

Breakfast with Martin Bester spoke to Dr Lizelle Grobler about the different techniques used to profile a person and find out more about them.
The left and right-sided facial features reflect your private (left) and public (right) persona. The left reveals a more intimate and personal character reading, and the right reveals your workplace and social self.
It’s about shapes, lines, sizes, angles, and position, the exposure of your eyelid, and the fullness of your brows. From your forehead to your chin, your face provides for a holistic interpretation of personality and behaviour.
Recently, Lizelle analysed the well-known actor Tom Cruise’s face.
For example, Tom’s slanted forehead reveals that he is someone who easily remembers facts and processes and uses his knowledge and experience to solve problems quickly and effectively.
His straight nose (bottom left) indicates that he is a logical and practical long-term strategic planner, always looking for smart and efficient ways to complete tasks.

Dense, straight eyebrows (top right), like his, are a visible sign of intelligence. It also shows that he is very logical and factual, enjoys challenges, and might be impatient with those who take longer to solve problems than he does.
Lastly, his strong jawline (bottom right) speaks to his strong, courageous, and determined character, possibly making him someone who is sometimes considered stubborn.
By applying only this basic analysis, you already get a very clear picture of who a person is and how you can utilise or approach them.
"Identifying a person’s strengths and limitations, uncovering their communication style, highlighting their value to the business, and discovering what motivates them is invaluable for modern businesses," says Lizelle.
This remarkable woman, with her unique skillset, assists companies in getting the best out of their personnel. She teaches human resource teams to use profiling to drive employee performance and has already worked with numerous major corporate businesses across the country, including Sabi Sands, the AndBeyond Group, Phoenix Security, and Sefateng Chrome Mine, to name just a few.

Besides helping shape high-performing teams, Lizelle has a passion for empowering women. As a qualified trauma councillor and life coach, she is involved in several projects aimed at women.
"My goal is to teach women to embrace their uniqueness and use it to their advantage. I want to help them not only reach their potential but to push their limits beyond what they dream possible."
She is currently working on several exciting projects, including Enchanting Warrior Camps for women and a specialised, one-of-a-kind training programme.
