Definition Body language is the language transmitted by gestures and postures
Some notions of body language • Is an important and decisive factor when transmitting a message • Provides information about an individual’s character, emotions, and reactions Body language:
Movement is the original and most intense means of expression and of will
Movement is the starting point par excellence of human behavior
A person can stop speaking, but he cannot stop communicating with his body
NON-VERBAL symbols are four times more effective than VERBAL ones
All individuals have some knowledge of the vocabulary of body symbols
Non-verbal signs are grasped instinctively and directly
Signals emitted unconsciously always tell the truth
Gestures are the direct and unrepeatable expression of the personality
Each gesture synthesizes multiple contents, both conscious and unconscious
Everyone moves the way he or she is and is the way he or she moves
Body language is a sensorial process from the point of view of perception and emission
The more signals we consciously attemptto perceive and understand, the more accurate will be our interpretation of a person’s conduct
Only those persons who live in awareness of their body will be able to maintain sensitive contact with their surrroundings
Three senses are used to interpret the outside world: • Sight (visual person, 55%) • Hearing (auditory person, 15%) • Touch (kinetic person, 30%) Each person has a predominant sense
The 7 most important words: I admit I have made a mistake The 6 most important words : You have done a good job The 5 most important words : Tell me what you think
The 4 most important words : Do me a favor The 3 most important words : Thanks a lot The most important word : We The least important word : I
Territorial needs • Everyone has a defined body area, a territory, and a personal space, which is called a body buffer zone
Masking • Method by which we control our body so that it will not send out messages that our mind wants to hide
Posture • Posture is not only a way of punctuating a conversation, but it is also the way individuals relate with each other when they are in a group.
Types of posture Inclusive or non-inclusive Face-to-face or parallel Congruent or incongruent
Inclusive or non-inclusive • These terms describe the way in which the members of a group include (or exclude) other people
Face-to-face • Posture when two individuals relate facing each other
Congruent - incongruent • This refers to the ability of the members of a group to imitate each other

The meaning of gestures. Examples Doubt: we raise an eyebrow Scratching one’s nose: puzzled
Holding eye contact Interest/curiosity Showing the palms of one’s hands Inviting trust Covering one’s mouth when talking Insecurity Not wanting to show feelings; or lying Avoiding eye-contact when talking
Recommendations • The greeting: a good starting point (show openness) • Don’t blink constantly • Try to keep a direct look and establish eye contact with the people you are talking to • Don’t bite your lips or moisten them with your tongue
Recommendations (Continued) • Always keep your mouth shut while you are listening • Maintain an appropriate position and avoid constant abrupt movements • Control the movements of your hands and keep them visible • Do not allow any object to come between you and your audience
Recommendations (Continued) • Try to integrate with your audience and adapt your clothing to their social, economic, and other characteristics • Do not cross your arms over your chest • Do not cover your mouth with your hand while you are speaking • Maintain a relaxed posture

A NEUTRAL handshake should use the same pressure to hold say a hammer, a bat or a racquet. The hand should be 'neutral' neither palm up nor palm down. A palm up handshake indicates subservience. A palm down handshake indicates control. Dr. AT/ASST. PROF/bl/COMMN AND DIFFUSION OF INNOVN
A sequence of handshakes indicating degrees of warmth and passion. Please be aware that the hand is the third least erogenous zone to be able to touch. The least erogenous zone on a man is the lower arm, and the upper arm on a woman. The double handshake shows great warmth and passion. You would only do this with close friends, and people with whom you have deep sincere gratitude. The last picture with the hand on the shoulder, could also end with the arm over the shoulder-it indicates further warmth and feeling. Anyone who gives you a handshake with two hands, when first meeting you, is likely to be insincere and overwhelming, or even deceitful. Dr. AT/ASST. PROF/bl/COMMN AND DIFFUSION OF INNOVN
The lowered steep-ling of the hands indicates listening, and can also be a negative confidence gesture. Dr. AT/ASST. PROF/bl/COMMN AND DIFFUSION OF INNOVN
The scratch to the back of the neck indicates either the neck itches or uncertainty or even lying. Dr. AT/ASST. PROF/bl/COMMN AND DIFFUSION OF INNOVN

Pulling the ear can be an ear itch. It can mean nervousness or deceit. It can mean a desire to shut out the words they are hearing, or the words aren't 'going in'. It may also indicate they've heard enough. Dr. AT/ASST. PROF/bl/COMMN AND DIFFUSION OF INNOVN
