The power of your voice is immense. Its the strongest communication tool you have. Just like your impression of others are bound up with how they sound, your voice tells people a lot about you, even more than what you wear. People who hear your voice make immediate judgements and assumptions about you. Your voice has the power to lift others or to break them. Your voice can open up such opportunities for you that you cannot imagine!
As a parent or teacher you can give children and students the confidence to reach their highest potential or you can destroy their confidence and self-respect
As a husband or wife you can make your marriage grow and flourish or can end up miserable and very alone.
As a son or daughter you can give your parents such peace of mind that the gates of Jannah can be opened for you or you can dig a grave for yourself that is fuelled by the scorching fire of Jahannam.
As a speaker or leader you can energise and empower your listeners so that they are ready to sacrifice all that is of worth to them for the worthy cause you call for, or you can bring them down to their knees and demotivate or victimise them
Speaking is such an important part of us. If we can’t get this right we can lead ourselves to destruction and serious stress.
The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “...the whole body warns the tongue saying, “Fear Allah concerning us, for we are (dependant) upon you. If you are upright then we will be upright and if you are corrupt then we will be corrupt.” - Sunan at-Tirmidhi
Abu Hurairah (ra) also reported that the Prophet (saw) said, “Indeed a servant may say a word from which Allah’s pleasure is gained and the servant does not realize it, Allah will raise him up levels. Indeed a servant may say a word from which Allah’s displeasure is gained and he does not realize it, Allah will put him in Jahanam due to it.” - Sahih al-Bukhari

This document discusses having difficult conversations in the workplace. It outlines that people dislike difficult conversations because they take time, involve emotions, and can cause conflict. However, having the conversations (action) is better than no action, as problems will escalate without action. The document provides a 3-step process for handling difficult conversations: 1) gain clarity on the issue by separating facts from feelings, 2) overcome the instinct to avoid the conversation, and 3) deliver the message in a direct but sensitive way using "I" statements. The goal is to have productive discussions to improve relationships and work productivity.
This document provides strategies for effectively engaging in difficult conversations and negotiations. It emphasizes the importance of preparation, including identifying the problem, clarifying one's goal, anticipating reactions, and planning a message that is accurate, brief, and clear. Key recommendations include listening without interrupting, acknowledging other perspectives, responding calmly without becoming defensive, and being willing to discuss issues as they arise in the future. The overall message is that preparation, empathy, and maintaining composure are vital for successfully navigating high-stakes discussions.
This document discusses communication skills and provides definitions, components, types, and importance of communication. It defines communication as conveying information through thoughts, messages, or information by speech, visuals, signals, writing, or behavior. The key components of the communication process include a sender, message, medium, recipient, and feedback. There are two main types of communication: verbal communication using words and written language, and nonverbal communication using gestures, body language, facial expressions, and other wordless signals. Effective communication is important for transmitting ideas, achieving goals, and building relationships.
The document discusses conflict in business organizations. It defines conflict and explores different views on its role. There are three main types of conflict: task, process, and relationship. Conflict generally progresses through four stages: potential opposition, cognition and personalization, behavior, and outcomes. Several methods for resolving conflict are described, including passive resolution, win-win solutions, structured problem solving, confrontation, choosing a winner, and selecting alternatives. No single approach is best for all situations.
1. Public speaking is many people's biggest fear, even more so than snakes or death. While 10% enjoy it and 10% are terrified, most people (80%) experience butterflies and anxiety but can get through it.
2. Common fears around public speaking include being judged negatively, feeling like a fool if mistakes are made, and not being liked or understood by the audience.
3. With practice, people can turn their butterflies into an advantage by preparing, practicing, controlling their presence, and knowing their audience and material. Effective communication as a public speaker involves techniques like voice variation, body language, eye contact, and confidence.
Accountability can be taught and learned. Improving on my accountability is easier than I think. It all starts with the mindset. The Five Keys are No Fault Guilt or Blame, 100/0 Mindset, Self-empowerment, Result vs. Task and Clear Agreements
Problem solving & decision making at the workplaceFaakor Agyekum
This document discusses problem solving and decision making at the workplace. It outlines a problem solving model involving 6 steps: 1) recognizing and defining the problem, 2) gathering information, 3) analyzing the information, 4) developing and selecting solutions, 5) implementing the solution, and 6) evaluating the solution. It also describes a fishbone analysis tool used to identify root causes of problems by categorizing potential causes. Key aspects of effective problem solving include using a systematic approach, involving others, and evaluating solutions. The document also discusses making routine, adaptive, and innovative decisions and ingredients for good decision making such as following a process, involving teams, being creative and objective.
This document discusses conflict management and resolution. It defines conflict as a disagreement, struggle or fight between incompatible views. While a lack of conflict can indicate over conformity, conflict also has both positive and negative consequences. The main sources of conflict are listed as aggressive behavior, competition for resources, frustration, clashes between values and interests, cultural influences, and misinformation. The document outlines strategies for managing conflict successfully, including active listening, empathy, and aiming for a win-win resolution where all parties achieve their desired outcome through collaboration and problem solving.
This document provides guidance on developing an effective public speaking presentation in 3 sentences or less. It outlines the key elements of an introduction, body, and conclusion. It also discusses techniques for engaging an audience, using body language and vocal variety, and receiving feedback through peer evaluation. The document stresses the importance of planning, organization, and practicing delivery to feel confident speaking in front of others.
The document discusses accountability and building a culture of accountability. It asks what accountability is, where you stand in terms of accountability, and what is needed to be accountable. It notes that accountability starts with the individual and their personal choice to be accountable. The document also discusses lack of accountability and provides exercises for managers to build a culture of accountability.
This document summarizes the key findings of a study conducted by Newsworks and PwC on attention to different media types. The study found that traditional print and broadcast media receive more focused attention from consumers compared to digital media. Specifically, newspaper readers were more likely to regularly set time aside for newspapers, feel personally connected to them, and trust their content more than most other media. The sustained attention received made newspaper readers more likely to discuss issues they read about and be influenced regarding purchases. Overall, the study showed that traditional media with higher attention levels can have a more powerful impact on consumers than digital media with less focused attention.
The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. The study found that lockdowns led to significant short-term reductions in nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter pollution globally as transportation and industrial activities declined substantially. However, the improvements in air quality were temporary and pollution levels rose back to pre-pandemic levels as restrictions eased and activity increased again.
This document discusses glossophobia, the fear of public speaking. It begins by defining glossophobia as the fear stemming from the Greek roots "glossa" meaning tongue, and "phobia" meaning fear. Common physical symptoms of stage fright are then listed, such as a dry mouth, sweating, and increased heart rate. The document continues by explaining that public speaking is considered a greater fear than death for many people. It emphasizes that public speaking is a skill required for many careers and encourages overcoming excuses not to improve. Strategies are then provided for managing fears of public speaking, including understanding the audience's perspective, deep breathing, practicing presentations, and envisioning success.

These conversations require specific skills like making others feel safe to share openly without attacks. The document outlines tools like STATE to share your perspective and AMPP to understand others. It also discusses different methods to make decisions and commitments to reach mutually agreeable actions from crucial discussions.
Did you know that our brains are naturally biased? Let's explore the functions of unconscious bias together and navigate their impact on our decision-making processes. We will examine our own background and identities so we can interact more authentically with colleagues, consumers, and the community at large.
The “Course Topics” series from Manage Train Learn and Slide Topics is a collection of over 4000 slides that will help you master a wide range of management and personal development skills. The 202 PowerPoints in this series offer you a complete and in-depth study of each topic. This presentation is on "Influencing Skills".
The document discusses body language and nonverbal communication. It describes how body language conveys meaning through gestures, facial expressions, eye contact, smiling, hand gestures, arm and leg positions, and posture. Specific gestures and their potential meanings are examined, such as crossed arms indicating defensiveness while open arms suggest openness. Body language provides important cues about people's emotions and attitudes beyond what is said verbally.
This document discusses various aspects of body language and non-verbal communication. It states that 55% of communication is non-verbal. It then outlines five main types of body language: eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture/stance, and space relationships. Specific gestures and their potential meanings are described. Proper eye contact and its purpose is explained. The importance of facial expressions, posture, and physical space between individuals in communication is also covered.

The 15 Most Common Body Language MistakesBernard Marr
Body language matters. Our brain relies on snap judgements to categorize another person and predict whether they are trustworthy, threatening, competent, likeable, etc. Here are the top 15 body language blunders to watch out for.
The document discusses body language and its importance in communication. It notes that much of communication is nonverbal, with only 7% coming from words. It explores various body language signals from different parts of the body like hands, arms, and face that can indicate states like openness, confidence, anxiety and more. Cultural differences in signals are also addressed. The document encourages observing both oneself and others to get better at interpreting body language.
The most powerful tool for communication is our body. 90% of our communication is non-verbal. By being more focused on our body during conversations, negotiations or even in non-spoken occasions we can increase our level of impression and chance to take control of the situation. It's not a game but it is easy to adapt.
Non Verbal communication and use of body language expressionDeepak Agarwal
Non-verbal communication accounts for over 65% of social meanings conveyed in a conversation. It includes facial expressions, gestures, eye contact, posture, touch, use of space, time, smell, tone of voice, and other physical aspects. Being aware of non-verbal cues and using positive body language can help build confidence and avoid misunderstandings.
What you say is often far less important than how you say it. One of the harbingers of success is understanding how nonverbal cues such as body language, dress, and demeanor affect how you are perceived and understood. In this book Arif Anis, Psychologist, personal development coach and author of 'Follow Your Dream' demonstrates how to modify your subconscious statements to your greatest advantage and also read what other people are 'saying' nonverbally. These skills will increase your ability to accurately assess moods, decode behaviors, anticipate problems, avoid hidden pitfalls, influence negotiations, and understand the secret motivations of those around you.
Gestures and movement provide the visuals that accompany your words. Learning to use them effectively will help you convey your message with confidence and your audience will see your message instead of just hearing it
Nonverbal communication such as facial expressions, posture, and tone of voice account for over 90% of total communication. Nonverbal cues complement and regulate what is said verbally, and can even substitute for or accent verbal messages. There are many types of nonverbal communication including paralanguage, body movement, eye contact, clothing, and touch, and it is important to be aware of nonverbal signals as most communication is nonverbal.
Understanding body language is beneficial in the workplace as up to 93% of our communication is nonverbal...
Here are IQ's tips on how to communicate well through body language
The document discusses the history and development of artificial intelligence over several decades. Early research focused on symbolic approaches using rules and logic but progress was slow. More recently, machine learning techniques such as deep learning have achieved significant successes in areas like computer vision and natural language processing by using neural networks trained on large datasets. However, fully human-level AI remains an ongoing challenge.
Body Language by N.G.Palit. Body Language is the language which our body sp...Nanda Palit
Body Language is the language which our bodies speak, many times even without our conscious knowledge. But, when we speak, our body language must be in congruence with our oral words. People tend to believe our body language more than what we speak, whenever there is any variance between the two. Body language is a truth teller. We must improve our body language if we want to be a more effective communicator. Observing other's body language also helps us to understand what others want to actually convey. So, closely observing body language can greatly improve our interpersonal skills, and help us to maintain cordial relationship with every body.
Verbal and non-verbal communication are both important forms of communication. Verbal communication involves speaking, writing, listening and reading while using simple language. It allows for interaction but messages can be forgotten and words cannot be taken back. Non-verbal communication includes body language, gestures, eye contact and more. It provides unconscious messages and flows through all communication. Both forms of communication are important, as non-verbal communication matters more than words and allows people to have quality communication skills.
As a continuation of the previous work done on the reading of body language, this deck focuses specifically on the top - the head, face, eyes and lips.
Reading Microexpressions- Lie to me Session @barcammumbaikaurwakee
The document discusses micro-expressions, which are brief involuntary facial expressions that reveal concealed emotions. It notes there are seven universal emotions that can be detected from micro-expressions, including distress, effort to block an unwanted sight, and needing air. It provides examples of micro-expressions like a clenched jaw meaning distress. The document seeks to teach people to detect lies from micro-expressions, like when a person touches their neck near their artery or makes two mouth shrugs with no confidence in their words.
The document discusses the importance of studying nonverbal communication. It defines nonverbal communication as any communication that is not spoken or written. Some key types of nonverbal communication discussed include kinesics, facial expressions, paralanguage, touching, personal presentation, proxemics, time, and appearance. The document also outlines nineteen ways to use nonverbal communication to connect with others, such as smiling, shaking hands, being punctual, and leaving on a positive note.
How body language effects effective communicationGodfrey Tellis
This document discusses body language and non-verbal communication. It states that body language is an important form of non-verbal communication, comprising 38% of communication, compared to 7% for words. It defines various forms of body language including eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture, touch, and physical distance. Specific examples are given like handshakes and how posture and appearance convey messages. The document emphasizes that body language plays a big role in intuition and conveying emotions, attitudes, and trust during interactions.
How Body Language Affects The Communication Processnas_56
Body language plays an important role in communication by expressing one's emotions, feelings, and attitudes beyond words. It is an innate and learned system of nonverbal cues, including facial expressions, gestures, and body positions. While some signals like smiling are universal, others vary culturally. Being aware of inconsistencies between speech and body language can provide insight into what people are truly thinking or feeling in a situation. Regular practice observing body language can improve one's ability to perceive these nonverbal signals.
As humans, we never fail to think that we are highly intelligent beings, and that we are mentally superior than any other creatures found on Earth.
Well, that...... may be true.
However, we can be equally stupid and dumb too.
Worse still, we don't even realize it - in terms of how we can make erroneous judgments, decisions and choices, based on how our mind processes and filters information, as well as how our belief system works.
As intriguing and exciting this topic is to me, I find it difficult to illustrate the concepts involve, and that took me nearly 6 months to complete this work. (The Planning Fallacy in play?!) Throughout writing this deck, I've made a total of 8 major revisions before coming to this final piece.
