You cannot NOT communicate – an #NLP presupposition that suggests that even when silent, you ARE communicating something ….or everything to others.
And this is supported very nicely in a FORBES article (Link is placed in the comment section) we came across. The said article articulates strategies to harness the influence of body language for effective communication, leadership, and building lasting professional connections.
WHY?
Because “You can use your body language to support or negate certain assumptions”. And we all know how perception can be much more powerful than reality.
Key takeaways from the article are in the carousel we have provided.
What else should you and I consider?
1️⃣ Confidence Speaks Volumes: Learn how subtle changes in body language can exude confidence and positively impact your professional presence.
2️⃣ The Art of Active Listening: Learn techniques to enhance your active listening skills through non-verbal cues, fostering stronger collaboration and understanding.
3️⃣ Leadership Posture: Explore insights on how adopting powerful body language can elevate your leadership presence, influencing and inspiring those around you.
Remember, the way we carry ourselves speaks volumes, influencing not only our own confidence but also shaping how we are perceived by others in the workplace.
