Recommendation

When you were a kid, you naturally knew how to communicate by using body language and words in combination. Somehow, over time, bad habits and fear buried that knowledge. Speech expert Richard Newman shows you how to utilize your body language so it supports rather than undercuts your message. If you’re looking for presentation advice, this is a good place to start. 

Take-Aways

  • You were born with everything you need to communicate effectively. Learn to dismantle old habits that work against you.
  • The measurement of an “effective communication style” is whether people find your ideas convincing. Your words and actions must be “congruent.”
  • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Film yourself to make sure you aren’t subconsciously moving around in a distracting way.
