Body Language Speaks Louder Than Words

Written by Lydia Ramsey


Continued from page 1

The angle of your body gives an indication to others about what’s going through your head. Leaning in says, ”Tell me more.” Leaning away signals you’ve heard enough. Adding a nod of your head is another way to affirm that you are listening.

Posture is just as important as your grandmother always said it was. Sit or stand erect if you want to be seen as alert and enthusiastic. When you slump in your chair or lean onrepparttar wall, you look tired. No one wants to do business with someone who has no energy.

Control your hands by paying attention to where they are. Inrepparttar 104631 business world, particularly when you deal with people from other cultures, your hands need to be seen. That would mean you should keep them out of your pockets and you should resistrepparttar 104632 urge to put them underrepparttar 104633 table or behind your back. Having your hands anywhere aboverepparttar 104634 neck, fidgeting with your hair or rubbing your face, is unprofessional.

Legs talk, too. A lot of movement indicates nervousness. How and where you cross them tells others how you feel. The preferred positions forrepparttar 104635 polished professional are feet flat onrepparttar 104636 floor or legs crossed atrepparttar 104637 ankles. The least professional and most offensive position is resting one leg or ankle on top of your other knee. Some people call thisrepparttar 104638 “Figure Four.” It can make you look arrogant.

The distance you keep from others is crucial if you want to establish good rapport. Standing too close or “in someone’s face” will mark you as pushy. Positioning yourself too far away will make you seem standoffish. Neither is what you want so findrepparttar 104639 happy medium. Most importantly, do what makesrepparttar 104640 other person feel comfortable. Ifrepparttar 104641 person with whom you are speaking keeps backing away from you, stop. Either that person needs space or you need a breath mint.

You may not be aware of what you are saying with your body, but others will getrepparttar 104642 message. Make sure it’srepparttar 104643 one you want to send.
