Communication Skills Applied

Using Body Language (CA002)


Description
Matching your body language with the words you’re saying is important. You can completely undermine any message if your body language doesn’t match up. Try folding your arms, frowning, and shaking your head. Now say, “Yes, I’d love to.” Do you seem believable? Thought not.

You’re already an expert in body language. You’ve been doing it all your life. It’s an instinctive way to communicate. But you can damage your meaning if your body language isn’t aligned with the words you’re saying, and you can sabotage yourself in certain situations without even knowing. This course will show you how to use your body language to help say what you mean.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

•Explain the importance of positive body language
•Discover ways to use body language in a range of situations
•Adopt methods to control your nonverbal social cues

Why take this course?

Whether you’re a managing director or just starting out at your 1st job, you’ll benefit from understanding the additional cues you could be giving in a wide range of situations. When you know how your body language can be read, you can use it effectively to support the words you speak and create the perfect first impression.
