As designers, we are lucky enough to get to interact with many different types of people during the course of our work. We observe people using technology and proposed design solutions. While working on our projects, we collaborate directly with our team, clients, and stakeholders to bring a solution to life. All of this interaction exposes us to lots of body language. The language of the body offers up many hints and insights into what people are thinking and feeling. It’s been said that our bodies tell what is really on our minds, and it’s important to know not only what others might be telling you but what you could be telling them.
It’s important for designers to have a fundamental understanding of body language and what are key signs to look for when interacting with users or project teams. There are key patterns that, when observed correctly, can tell you if someone is supportive of your idea, hiding their true feelings, or simply sitting back and daydreaming the meeting away.
Observing non-verbal communication cues is only one side of the coin, though—the other side being your own body language. Inherently knowing the patterns and signs of the body opens your eyes to the messages you might be giving off. The ability to manage your own body language is something that can be learned and mastered, helping you become a better collaborator and communicator.
Participants will walk away from this session with basic knowledge of how to read and respond to common non-verbal communication patterns and learn how to better manage their own non-verbal communication. They will be armed with additional resources to continue on their path of mastering the language of the body.

Improving Workplace Safety Performance in Malaysian SMEs: The Role of Safety ...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: In the Malaysian context, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) experience a significant
burden of workplace accidents. A consensus among scholars attributes a substantial portion of these incidents to
human factors, particularly unsafe behaviors. This study, conducted in Malaysia's northern region, specifically
targeted Safety and Health/Human Resource professionals within the manufacturing sector of SMEs. We
gathered a robust dataset comprising 107 responses through a meticulously designed self-administered
questionnaire. Employing advanced partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) techniques
with SmartPLS 3.2.9, we rigorously analyzed the data to scrutinize the intricate relationship between safety
behavior and safety performance. The research findings unequivocally underscore the palpable and
consequential impact of safety behavior variables, namely safety compliance and safety participation, on
improving safety performance indicators such as accidents, injuries, and property damages. These results
strongly validate research hypotheses. Consequently, this study highlights the pivotal significance of cultivating
safety behavior among employees, particularly in resource-constrained SME settings, as an essential step toward
enhancing workplace safety performance.

Nonverbal communication is expressed through nonlinguistic
means.
It includes silent behaviors, environment, artifacts, and
vocal intonation.
It is a powerful mode of communication.
5. Characteristics of Nonverbal
Communication
All behavior has communicative value.
Nonverbal communication is primarily relational.
Nonverbal communication is ambiguous.
Nonverbal communication reflects cultural values.
6. 1. All Behavior has Communicative
Value
• Because we “cannot not communicate.”
• May be intentional, but is often unconscious.
• Although we’re always sending messages through our
nonverbal, these messages aren’t always received.
• We especially pay attention to nonverbal when they contradict
verbal communication.
7. 2. Nonverbal Communication is
Primarily Relational
• Responsiveness
– Communicates our interest in others’ communication.
– Women are generally more responsive than men.
– People in lower-power positions tend to be better at reading
nonverbal.
• Liking – Positive or negative feelings about others.
• Power
• Touch
• Violence and Abuse
• Space
• Silence
8. 3. Nonverbal Communication is
Ambiguous
• The same nonverbal can have multiple meanings.
• For example :
– “I am feeling content” smiles
– “I am feeling a little stressed” smiles
– “I am a bit sad” smiles
– “I can’t believe you just did that” smiles
– “How do I get out of this conversation?” smiles

o Americans tend to value more personal space than many other
cultures
o Men tend to value more personal space than women
• Touch

o British – 0 touches per hour
o Parisians – 110 touches per hour
o Puerto Ricans – 180 touches per hour

10. The Functions of Nonverbal
Communication
Repeating
Substituting
Complementing
Accenting
Regulating
Contradicting
11. 1. Repeating
The use of nonverbal behavior to say what you are saying in
words.
Emblems - are the nonverbal behaviors that we use to
display what we mean.
Example - head nods at the same time as someone saying
“yes”.
12. 2. Substituting
The use of nonverbal behaviors to say things rather than
words.
We often answer questions others ask by responding
nonverbally rather than verbally.
Example - Nodding your head to answer a question rather
than saying “yes”
13. 3. Complementing
The use of nonverbal behaviors to strengthen what is being
said with words.
Illustrators- nonverbal behaviors that support what is
being said verbally.
Example - A friend says “I am so sorry” and at the same
time makes a sincerely sad face.
14. 4. Accenting
The way we emphasize certain words in order to
clarify what we mean.
Example - “NO!” or “No????”
15. 5. Regulating
Nonverbal behaviors that control the flow of the
conversation, and tell us when it is our turn to talk, or when
the other person is finished talking.
Example - while telling a story to a friend, one may pause
to allow room for comments.
16. 6. Contradicting
When people are saying one thing yet their
nonverbal behavior is telling us something
completely different.
Example - A friend says, “I am so sorry” while
smiling

deception are most successful at it.

Use “I” language to check your perceptions of nonverbal.
• Contextual Qualifications :

others’ nonverbal.
Be careful not to jump to conclusions based on your own
cultural norms.
33. Conclusion
• Nonverbal is especially important :
– For identity management
– In defining our relationships (e.g., level of intimacy)
– For expressing emotions we don’t want to express, can’t
express, or don’t know we are feeling
