Non-Verbal
- What do your non-verbal signals "say" about what you are saying and thinking?
- You may be clouding your message... communicating or signaling something to your audience that you do not realize.
- It is easy as a listener to tell if the speaker firmly believes what they are saying.
- Facial expressions, body posture, and movements tell an audience large or small just how you are truly thinking or feeling.
- Shifting, slouching, eye rolling, lack of eye contact, arms crossed, even a flinch can tell you so much about the person you are speaking too.
