know from the boss's muddy, red-coloured aura that he or she was bursting with suppressed anger, and had better be avoided. A dark blue aura might signal nervousness, an orange one would reveal vigour or excitement - even the most poker-faced of customers could thus be read like a book.

But this is the sort of thing that we non-psychic types can do too. We can learn to read the body language of the people around us, decode the physical signals that everyone is constantly sending. Some are obvious - the finance director's macho strut, the office flirt's coy sideways glance. Others are more subtle and telling; experts say that no matter how each of us tries to control his or her image, there is a certain amount of "leakage" which can reveal that person's true state of mind, and this can be picked up on, once we know how.

3) Telepathy: this word comes from the Greek, and means "to be affected at a distance", although it has also been described as a sort of "mental radio", enabling the transmission of an idea or image directly from mind to mind, across any distance and through any barrier. This would have obvious advantages in today's far-flung business world, where I might need to instantly contact a virtual colleague over in Baltimore, Bahrain or Beijing.

And of course, this is what modern technology already allows us to do. In fact, with just about everyone having access to e-mail, instant messaging, cell phones and BlackBerries, it could be said that we have a little too much communication, nowadays; we cannot escape from it.

But there are also ways in which we can transmit ideas and plant them in the minds of others, without requiring psychic means, or gadgetry. Watch Henry Fonda in the classic movie 12 Angry Men and observe the many ways his onscreen character is able to persuade and sway the other jurors. Also study the system of personality types, according to Dr. William Moulton Marston's DISC model, for more insights into the ways different kinds of people respond to different kinds of language and influencing techniques. This is deeply fascinating stuff, and it can all be learned.

4) Precognition: the meaning of this word is similar to "foreknowledge" and is the psychic ability to sense future events. This would, of course, give such a person the ultimate inside information. Imagine being able to reliably predict the stock market, days or even years into the future - someone with precognitive talents could surely become an overnight billionaire, without
